David Bohm Scientist Quotations

But you don't decide what to do with the info. Thought runs you. Thought, however, gives false info that you are running it, that you are the one who controls thought. Whereas actually thought is the one which controls each one of us.

What is the source of all this trouble? I'm saying that the source is basically in thought. Many people would think that such a statement is crazy, because thought is the one thing we have with which to solve our problems. That's part of our tradition.

Yet it looks as if the thing we use to solve our problems with is the source of our problems. It's like going to the doctor and having him make you ill. In fact, in 20% of medical cases we do apparently have that going on. But in the case of thought, its far over 20%.

Thought has been constantly evolving and we can't say when that system began.

I would say that thought makes what is often called in modern language a SYSTEM. A system means a set of connected things or parts.

Therefore it would be wrong and misleading to break it up into my thought, your thought, my feelings, these feelings, those feelings.
