Jerry Garcia Quotes

I think truth is weirder than fiction.

For me, everything has always been an accident.

Things happen in weird, serendipitous ways.

Serendipity is when you find things you weren't looking for because finding what you are looking for is so damned difficult.

Serendipity. Look for something, find something else, and realize that what you've found is more suited to your needs than what you thought you were looking for.

To come upon love without seeking it is the only way to find it.

You look for one thing and you find another.

Thinking does not lead to truth; truth is the beginning of thought.

If you aren't the woman I think you are, then this isn't the world I thought it was.

Nothing is ever the same as they said it was. It's what I've never seen before that I recognize.

Many a truth is the result of an error.

Accident is design / And design is accident / In a cloud of unknowing.

Real travel requires a maximum of unscheduled wandering, for there is no other way of discovering surprises and marvels, which, as I see it, is the only good reason for not staying at home.

Nothing but what astonishes is true.

I had so many professions before. I didn't want to do this particularly. It just happened.

There is in writing the constant joy of sudden discovery, of happy accident.

This is our goal as writers, I think; to help others have this sense of--please forgive me--wonder, of seeing things anew, things that can catch us off guard, that break in on our small, bordered worlds.

...what's always exciting is when you hear something amazing when you least expected it. Every now and then I'll hear something for the first time that forces me to re-examine my frames of reference, and re-consider musical parameters in general, and that's wonderful . And what's even more wonderful in a way, is when you hear something that you know, and already think you have an opinion about, and then suddenly discover that it isn't what you thought it was, but something quite different, which makes it just as surprising as if you'd never heard it before. That's REALLY great!

It's one thing when you're driving to go play at a radio station and you hear it on that station. It's another thing when you're just out in the middle of nowhere, and the song just comes on the radio, and you're like "Oh my God!"

Let us not underrate the value of a fact; it will one day flower into a truth.

Truth is stranger than fishin.

The truth is generally seen, rarely heard.

Even idiots ocasionally speak the truth accidentally.

I'd like to discover Truth - when I can latch on to something that I think is true.

I think for the foreseeable future, the truth is going to be awful and funny all at the same time.
