[…] The semantic fun that Wilson has with concepts like truth, self and knowledge have led him to an abiding belief in tolerance…

„I like the idea of forgiveness,“ Wilson says on film. „It keeps you from acting too much like a damn fool.“

[…] Paul Krassner, [ ] published Wilson’s first article in 1959 on the question ‘Does God Have a Penis?‘

[…] The film makes no mention of Wilson’s support for space travel, nor — he pulled at the front of his shirt — his book attacking the Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal (CSICOP). „I formed an alternative ‘Committee for the Surrealistic Investigation of Claims of the Normal,“ he said. „Nothing is normal — no normal people, no normal dogs — so how can anything be ‘paranormal?'“

[…] „One of the central features of Confucianism is courtesy, which is one of the most lacking qualities in American society“ he said.

„Politeness. I’m not even talking about ethics. But the funny thing is that if you make a habit of politeness, you naturally become more ethical.“

[…] A regular study group meets at Wilson’s house to discuss his two favorite authors, James Joyce and Ezra Pound about whom he is currently writing a book „Tale of the Tribe.“

„They’re very important writers for our times,“ he said. „They were both writing multiculturally, and we really need that. Everywhere you go are people with the same dumb superstitions and the same urge to transcend them.“

Though Wilson will be at the premier screening of „Maybe Logic“ he no longer has the energy to do speaking engagements that involve travel. „I just can’t go near airports“ he said. „I guess if my books go out of print I’ll have to go on the circuit again, but I’d rather hold up liquor stores.“
