Quotes by Tom Robbins

“Birth and death were easy. It was life that was hard.”

“Often, moreover, it is...that aspect of our being that society finds eccentric, ridiculous, or disagreeable, that holds our sweet waters, our secret well of happiness, the key to our equanimity in malevolent climes.”

“Those who shun the whimsy of things will experience rigor mortis before death.”

“Love is the ultimate outlaw. It just wont adhere to any rules. The most any of us can do is to sign on as its accomplice. Instead of vowing to honor and obey, maybe we should swear to aid and abet. That would mean that security is out of the question. The words make and stay become inappropriate. My love for you has no strings attached. I love you for free.”

“The highest function of love is that it makes the loved one a unique and irreplaceable being.”
