“This book causes you to reexamine everything you know. It forces you to look past your cultural lense and concentrate on existing only as you were truly intended to exist.”
“Every part of our culture…keeps the seeker within our culture… We define the rules as to how truth can be proven, how God can be encountered, or how knowledge can be discovered, and within those rules, there is no way to exit the culture.” –From “Look,” Look for Our Mother and Our Father, all rights reserved
“Why, if work is so meaningful and necessary, and our society is so well-ordered, is there not a good job for everyone, one they find fulfilling and worthwhile and that pays enough for those things our culture has determined should be bought (food, shelter, health care)? Why are there bad jobs if work is meaningful?” – From “Wisdom,” Look for Our Mother and Our Father, all rights reserved

“In our culture, people own knowledge. Granted, I don’t give any credit to the authenticity of this knowledge: The fact that it can be owned is enough to make knowledge in this culture suspect, since there is an ulterior motive working in its discovery – that motive being profit, not truth.” – From “Ownership of Everything,” Look for Our Mother and Our Father, all rights reserved

“’Going green’ is one of the latest marketing tools companies are using to increase profits. Sadly, going green isn’t a way to save the planet; it’s just another marketing tool for exploiting it. This catch phrase is used by corporations pedaling everything from natural gas to household chemicals. It’s a meaningless label…” –From “Lenses,” Look for Our Mother and Our Father, all rights reserved
“Sometimes people see a hole in the fabric, but instead of tearing away the material to see what’s behind, they come up with another theory; they patch that hole with another piece of fabric. That is the way of our culture.” –From “Theories,” Look for Our Mother and Our Father, all rights reserved
“I saw… a sign designating ‘Nature Area,’ by the side of a major thoroughfare. The area was planted with trees and
shrubs non-native to the desert in which they built the city. This is the
pretend world we live in. (They would have been closer to the truth if they had
posted that sign beside a ‘vacant’ lot.)” –From “Destruction for
