The universe is the Great All, and it presents us with paradoxes, incomprehensible to the limited, finite mind. As a human mind can comprehend the mind alive, although he believes that it can, and the mind is finite cannot comprehend infinity.

American psychologists conducted experiments: unsuspecting trick people reading random numbers. All participants immediately found the list of certainly not existed in this regularity - they themselves just made up.
Nature abhors a vacuum, human chaos. Our consciousness is arranged in such a manner that we perceive only when it fits into a story.

It's like my mind refuses to believe what I see.

A reasonable man adapts to the world; the unreasonable tries to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, the progress always depends on the unreasonable.

In addition to our capacity for judgment, we have our opinion about our ability to judge.

Until people will not listen to common reason of nature, they will be forced to submit to either the dictators or the people.

- A reasonable person and must be either agnostic or atheist, patiently but firmly he said. And tremble for his own skin. This is a necessary features of a developed intellect.

Your mind mixes up the truth with your perception of reality, this is your opinion. Man only sees what he wants to see.

I wonder who invented that man is a rational animal. What a hasty judgment! The man has anything but the mind. And, in fact, it's very good!..

Usually a trivial definition is used: reason is that part of man which distinguishes its activity from animal activity. Sort of, you know, an attempt to distinguish the owner from the dog who understands everything, just can't speak. However, this flat definition suggests a more witty. Based on bitter observation of the above-mentioned human activities. For example: reason is the ability of a living creature to perform unreasonable or unnatural acts.

The greatest manifestation of mercy in our world is, in my opinion, the inability of the human mind to tie together all that this world involves. We live on the quiet island of ignorance in the midst of the dark sea of infinity and we do not have to swim long distances. Science, each of which pulls in its direction, still caused us little harm; but the day will come and unite hitherto disparate pieces of knowledge will open before us these types of horrific reality that we will either lose his mind from what he saw, or try to hide from this destructive enlightenment in the peace and safety of a new middle ages.

The mind can be your best friend, may amuse a man when, say, there is nothing to read and nothing to do. But when he gets the new data is too long, it turns against man, against himself, starts to tear and torment myself and maybe devours itself in unimaginable act of amocanebis.

However, we do not know how to measure the time pure consciousness... moreover, we simply can not imagine, what is a pure mind without a body.
