Carlos Castaneda
Quotes
- Don Juan introduced
me to psychotropic plants in the middle period of my apprenticeship,
because I was so stupid and so cocky, which of course I considered evidence
of sophistication.
Carlos
Castaneda Quotes
- Peyote served to
exaggerate the subtle contradictions within my interpretative gloss,
and this helped me cut through the typical Western stance of seeing
a world out there and talking to myself about it.
Carlos
Castaneda Quotes
- My path has been
my path. Don Juan always told me, "Make a gesture." A gesture
is nothing more than a deliberate act undertaken for the power that
comes from making a decision.
Carlos
Castaneda Quotes
- You see, the path
of the heart is not a road of incessant introspection or mystical flight,
but a way of engaging the joys and sorrows of the world.
Carlos
Castaneda Quotes
- This world, where
each one of us is related at molecular levels to every other wondrous
and dynamic manifestation of being -- this world is the warrior's true
hunting ground.
Carlos
Castaneda Quotes
- The notion that
I concocted a person like don Juan is preposterous.
Carlos
Castaneda Quotes
- Actually, it was
liberating to abandon the enterprise of public relations -- intrinsically
a violation of my nature -- and return to my fieldwork with don Juan.
Carlos
Castaneda Quotes
- My books are instead
a chronicle of specific experiences and observations in a particular
context, reported to the best of my ability.
Carlos
Castaneda Quotes
- It has taken me
many years to appreciate the fact that don Juan is a master of using
frustration, digression, and partial disclosure as methods of instruction.
