Sam Harris Quotes
Losing A Belief In Free Will Has Not Made Me Fatalistic - In Fact, It Has Increased My Feelings Of Freedom. My Hopes, Fears, And Neuroses Seem Less Personal And Indelible. There Is No Telling How Much I Might Change In The Future. Just As One Wouldn't Draw A Lasting Conclusion About Oneself On The Basis Of A Brief Experience Of Indigestion, One Needn't Do So On The Basis Of How One Has Thought Or Behaved For Vast Stretches Of Time In The Past. A Creative Change Of Inputs To The System - Learning New Skills, Forming New Relationships, Adopting New Habits Of Attention - May Radically Transform One's Life.
