“Prophecy is nothing but only just an estimation based on regularities of the Nature.”

“Brain researchers estimate that your unconscious data base outweighs the conscious on an order exceeding ten million to one. This data base is the source of you hidden, natural genius. In other words, a part of you is much smarter than you are.”

“That is the nature of prophecy... Prophecy will bite your prick off every time.”

“The natural world is the only reality, thus the only valid base for spirituality there is.”

“Fun... human nature... does no one any harm... Regular as clockwork the old excuses came back into the alert, sad and dissatisfied brain--nothing ever matched the deep excitement of the regular desire. Men always failed you when it came to the act. She might just as well have been to the pictures.”

“Every year, if not every day, we have to wager our salvation upon some prophecy based upon imperfect knowledge.”
