A Quote by Philip K. Dick

Well, I hate to admit it, but it is possible that there is (one) such a thing as telepathy and (two) that the CETI project's idea that we might communicate with extraterrestrial beings via telepathy is possibly a reasonable idea--if telepathy exists and if ETIs exist. Otherwise we are trying to communicate with someone who doesn't exist with a system which doesn't work.

Because of technology, we don't develop telepathy. We don't use telepathy, but use, you know, the mobile phones. Why?

Marina Abramovic

It's not telepathy. It's not the Borg. But we created a new central nervous system made of two brains.

Miguel Nicolelis

You don't know what mental telepathy exists from the human to the animal.

Tippi Hedren

I had this idea that the coolest thing that could happen to you was talking with God. My father was always talking about God, and I idolized my father, so I'd spend hours trying to have mental telepathy with God.

Patti Smith

When you realize that you have a little germ of an idea that has - I suppose I can only say, has to me - a little taste of magic to it. You have this idea that there are millions, literally, of people listening to it at the same time as you and that little strange telepathy of a feeling that you're sharing something live with all those people.

David Gilmour

I think telepathy exists, and I think quantum physics will help us understand its basic properties.

Brian Josephson

There is a universal urge for intimacy, for trading subjectivities, in communication. For Telepathy. Our desire for it tells us about what we wish to be: truly intersubjective beings.

David Porush

Mark Zuckerberg talks about telepathy, and Elon Musk has invested in trying to create a brain-machine interface.

Franklin Foer

I would say the first key concept is that, in terms of technological and communication progress in human history, the Internet is basically the equivalent of electronic telepathy. We can now communicate all the time through our little magic smartphones with people who are anywhere, all the time, constantly learning what they're thinking, talking about, exchanging messages. And this is a new capability even within the context of the Internet.

Edward Snowden

Psychedelic telepathy is you 'see' what I mean.

Terence McKenna

I think it's relatively easy for people to accept something like telepathy or precognition or teleplasm because their willingness to believe doesn't cost them anything. It doesn't keep them awake nights. But the idea that the evil that men do lives after them is unsettling.

Stephen King

Do you believe in telepathy? No? Then what are you doing when you pray?

Charles R. Moore

There's a kind of telepathy that goes on with the photographer and model.

Jerry Hall

Let there be two possible things, A and B, one of which is such that it is necessary that it exists, and let us assume that there is more perfection in A than in B. Then, at least, we can explain why A should exist rather than B and can foresee which of them will exist; indeed, this can be demonstrated, that is, rendered certain from the nature of the thing.
