Alfred Korzybski Quotes

If We, Who Live Outside Asylums, Act As If We Lived In A Fictitious World- That Is To Say, If We Are Consistent With Our Beliefs- We Cannot Adjust Ourselves To Actual Conditions, And So Fall Into Many Avoidable Semantic Difficulties. But The So-called Normal Person Practically Never Abides By His Beliefs, And When His Beliefs Are Building For Him A Fictitious World, He Saves His Neck By Not Abiding By Them. A So-called "insane" Person Acts Upon His Beliefs, And So Cannot Adjust Himself To A World Which Is Quite Different From His Fancy.
