And from our "Thinker's Guide," Friday's tip:
If you're full of thoughts, you can't think.

Many eons ago (in Atlantis' South American sister city) it was believed that the proper way to combat unprofitable thinking was to engage in certain practices specifically devoted to this end. But later (in certain post- Atlantis Siberian circles) the accepted view became that the only possible way to ever directly deal with the thinking that involuntarily appears in man was to ignore the son-of-a-bitch.
(And although the natives of that linguistic region lacked a term comparable to "son-of-a-bitch,"
that's still how they looked at it, and don't hound me to death telling me that this can't be,
'tis only men who are pathologically entangled in the notion that, without specific words, certain ideas cannot be thought of who are still bound by such parochial retina-bustin' beliefs. Where you from, anyway?
Earth or someplace like that?)

"The human mind is the universe's only container
which consists of nothing more than its contents –
thus the two are synonymous."
"You mean the only thing besides reality?"
"And that also."

...and from the "Secret Section" of our Thinker's guide, this super cue:
If thinking amounted to no more than people normally think it does,
it'd hardly be worth thinking about.

And a boy said to his father:
"Regardless of the fact (and don't bother telling me that there's no such word as 'fact')
of talking about thinking and thoughts, is it not across-the-board so that being full of anything
will keep you from doing anything."

One man considered,
"If you could abandon the idea of there being a you inside of you that is you,
the whole notion of enlightenment would take a new turn."
