"Camus said there is only really one serious philosophical question,
which is whether or not to commit suicide. Why go on?...And you only go on if the game is worth the candle.
I think there are four or
five serious philosophical questions:
The first one is: Who started it?
The second is: Are we going to make it?
The third is: Where are we going
to put it?
The fourth is: Who's going to clean up?
And the fifth: Is it
serious?"
-- Alan Watts
"When we get to thinking of everything in terms of survival and profit
value, as we do, then the shapes of scratches on the floor cease to have
magic."
-- Alan Watts
