The Paranoid Armchair Astronaut

"You're an interesting species. An interesting mix. You're capable of such beautiful dreams, and such horrible nightmares. You feel so lost, so cut off, so alone, only you're not. See, in all our searching, the only thing we've found that makes the emptiness bearable is each other."

— Carl Sagan

The Pseudointellectual Psychonaut

"I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over. 

Out on the edge, you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center."

— Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.

The Sensible Musician Dude

"Man cannot endure his own littleness

 unless he can translate it into meaningfulness

 on the largest possible level."

— Ernest Becker

Thoughtbook: Brain Farts

Tiny pocket notebooks but a bit chunky. They measure 82 x 62mm and contain 160 pages of awesome blank paper! The perfect size for writing down random brain farts that could be ridiculous or brilliant. You definitely need to bring one the next time you go on a trip.

Thoughtbookmarks

The idea for the bookmark was to take a nice memorable first line off an awesome book, type it in a strip of muslin cloth, fasten the ends of the fabric with metal clasps and attach a charm and a feather. Tadaaa!

But then I made one that didn't follow that rule. The Hunter S. Thompson quote was just too good, I had to make a bookmark for it.

"I am a sick man...I am a spiteful man." 

- Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Notes from Underground

"All this happened, more or less." 

- Kurt Vonnegut Jr., Slaughterhouse-Five

"If I am out of my mind, it's alright with me." 

- Saul Bellow, Herzog

"It was like so, but wasn't." 

- Richard Powers, Galatea 2.2

"The real people wanted no part of me." 

- Hunter S. Thompson, The Rum Diary
