Quotes of the Morning: RIP RAW
“One of my favorite authors died last week. Robert Anton Wilson, author of Illuminatus! And dozens of other wonderful books, kicked the bucket January 11th. He was a delightful author and, in my opinion, one of the finest philosophers alive, well, up until January 11. I will try to give him the send-off that he would have wanted.”

'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisible!! THIS IS AN EX-PARROT!!”

Please pardon my levity, I don't see how to take death seriously. It seems absurd.”
-Robert Anton Wilson, January 6, 2007
