Alan W. Watts Quotes

We Look For This Security By Fortifying And Enclosing Ourselves In Innumerable Ways. We Want The Protection Of Being "exclusive" And "special," Seeking To Belong To The Safest Church, The Best Nation, The Highest Class, The Right Set, And The "nice" People. These Defenses Lead To Divisions Between Us, And So To More Insecurity Demanding More Defenses. Of Course It Is All Done In The Sincere Belief That We Are Trying To Do The Right Things And Live In The Best Way; But This, Too, Is A Contradiction.
