“If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is: Infinite.
For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thru narrow chinks of his cavern.”
- William Blake
“Maybe each human being lives in a unique world, a private world different from those inhabited and experienced by all other humans.
If reality differs from person to person, can we speak of reality singular, or shouldn't we really be talking about plural realities?
And if there are plural realities, are some more true (more real) than others?"
- Phillip K. Dick
"The first discovery of genius:
Those who agree with you are insane. Those who do not are in power."
- Samuel McCord

Yes, it is another stop on my Legendary "Don't You Hate Book Tours?" Book Tour.
Don't groan.
It is different from the others. It is fun. It is thought-provoking.
It is better than Batman vs. Superman!
But then, Gilligan's Island is, too!
C'mon. We are nearing the end of the trail. It is the Third Act.
And you know how thrilling the last act always is!
What I think of as the theme for "The Legend of McCord"
Already visited!
ReplyDeleteSome realities are more real than others.
Funny, Batman v Superman has a lower score on Rotten Tomatoes than Man of Steel, yet all the reviewers state that it's better than Man of Steel. What????
It has Batman in it -- Ben Affeck did a credible Batman -- still Snyder managed to muddy the waters terribly!
DeleteThanks for visiting. :-)
Hi Roland - we all have our own realities don't we ... I'm sure McCord has his - as too Twain ... Off to see RaChelle ... Have a peaceful Easter - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteMay your Easter be beautiful and healing, too. :-)
DeleteYour quotes are so so thought-provoking...
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you liked them. :-)
DeleteSee, you made me laugh...and I told you all you had to do was make me laugh. Well done. Keep your humor in tact through the last leg of your book tour! Good luck!!
ReplyDeleteLaughter is the one weapon we can carry with us always against the darkness. Mark Twain uses it often in The Not-So-Innocents Abroad. Thanks for following -- it meant a lot.
DeleteAmen. Laughter cannot be stolen, (tho' I let mine get stolen, and had to relocate it). Laughter is one of the greatest of gifts, one may give another. Laughter is healing to the ill, sick or tired. Yet, one need not be either to benefit from it. R.W. Emerson: "The greatest gift one can give is a portion of thyself", that is one's heart, and laughter, IMHO...!
DeleteFrom what I've heard, it wouldn't take much to beat that movie. ;)
ReplyDeleteI've yet to see it, but wow, is it ever getting panned!
They had Batman kill dozens of people. He was the world's densest detective. He was too easily manipulated. The story was joyless not a laugh to be had. Sad, really.
