When this delusion of utter separateness underlies and governs whatever I think, say, and do, what kind of world do I create?

Eckhart Tolle

Derek Cianfrance

Both in the lower and the middle classes the wiseacres urge young men 'to think it over' before taking the decisive step.

John Maynard Keynes

I think the Buddhist ethic is clearer and more systematic in some ways. The Buddhist notion is that our chief problems are greed, hatred and delusion. Well, delusion is not much mentioned in the Christian tradition. In the West, we have underplayed the idea that our moral and spiritual troubles have to do with a lack of clarity or insight because original sin has dominated so much of our thinking. We tend to think that our troubles are caused by insufficient will power.

Ninian Smart

We are all lone souls. It pays to know humility, lest the delusion of control, of mastery, overwhelms. And, indeed, we seem a species prone to that delusion, again and ever again." ~Fiddler, pg. 558

Steven Erikson

Rachel Caine

I don't pretend to any exemption from the general lot of parental delusion-I mean that like most other parents I see my child through an atmosphere which illuminates, magnifies, and at the same time refines the object to a degree that amounts to a delusion.

Sara Coleridge
