"Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Here's Tom with the weather."
-Bill Hicks
today an evolved monkey realized that the evolution of intelligence via genetic algorithms doesnt line up that well with the scientific trajectory of existence since the big bang , he then realized that his perception of existence would be exactly equivalent to that of a brain in a jar , his final realization was that all realizations are epheremal regardless as to how convincing or conclusive they may seem
Hell yeah man. Momentary lapse.
Thanks for reminding me of this. One of the all time greats.
Tool.
In case others don't know, Tool used this quote in their song Third Eye.
It's more than just a quote, it's a sample of Bill Hicks himself speaking it.
