Hugh Manatee Wins, from the book forum:
    "I frequently have hallucinations where my thoughts go out my fingers to where I can see them and then they talk back to me."

Mmmm, sounds suspiciously like woo, but I love that and needed to build a little shrine to it. Amen.

yeah, I got it that it was a description of reading one's own posts when I read the context. but here coincidentally enough is an old cartoon depicting a different envisioning... I found this within minutes of reading barracuda's post. what are the odds? approaching woo-squared I guess.

This is supposed to be a "quotes" thread, Hugh, not a "pedantic justifications" thread. Aphorisms don't require detailed context to be fascinating. Sometimes when something beautiful happens, it's best to just step back. I'm guessing you don't like surprise parties much.

Once you've sucked the mystery out of everything else, there'll always be women to fall back on. Thanks for that picture justdrew, exactly.
