The Universe gives you infinite chaos — your job as the artist is to pick up the right bits to use to #MakeTheThingThatIsNot. #AbortiveAttempts #Lichtenbergianism #postcardquotes

An old reading primer vocabulary page with multi-colored ink modifications: arrows that connect simple words into sentences, like ‘Put the pig in the pot but not the dog.’

#Lichtenbergianism

A quote from Georgia O’Keeffee: “Where you succeed or not is irrelevant, there is no such thing. Making your unknown known is the important thing — keeping the unknown behind you.”

For example, Amazon carries only the grown-up version of "Lichtenbergianism: procrastination as a creative strategy," whereas bookshop.org carries both books: bookshop.org/beta-search?... #Lichtenbergianism

Waste-book method highly recommended. A note made of every phrase, every expression. Wealth can also be acquired through saving up truths in pennyworths. — G.C. Lichtenberg, Notebook F.164 #Lichtenbergianism #LichtenbergianQuotes #WasteBooks

#Lichtenbergianism

A quote from Pablo Picasso: “Everything you can imagine is real.” Beneath, a quote from the Lichtenbergian: “But you gotta make it.”

With many a work of a celebrated man I would rather read what he has crossed out than what he has let stand. — G.C. Lichtenberg, Notebook F.131 #Lichtenbergianism #LichtenbergianQuotes #SuccessiveApproximation #Gestalt

#TaskAvoidance is job No. 1 in #Lichtenbergianism! Procrastination is a key creative strategy!

Pay attention to what you're looking for, not just what you find. #Gestalt #Lichtenbergianism #postcardquotes

A dark blue background. In the lower left is a golden circle; within it is a vintage drawing of a fish’s tail. White lettering tells us, “We pull our nets through the life-filled waters, finding the fish though seeking the sea.”

#Lichtenbergianism

A photo of the table of contents from the draft copy of “Lichtenbergianism: procrastination as a creative strategy”; a handwritten note says, “Make this better.”

Plato was not always right. #AbortiveAttempts #Lichtenbergianism #postcardquotes

A red circle is superscribed on a vintage drawing of a pomegranate; the circle is “perfect” while the fruit is not. A message: “Where did you get the idea that your circle was supposed to be perfect?”

The past is there for the taking — disassemble your idols and use the parts to #MakeTheThingThatIsNot. #StealFromTheBest. #Lichtenbergianism #postcardquotes

A collage with an 18th-century man holding a carriage above his head. Johann Sebastian Bach is in the carriage, and a slogan says “Steal like a boss.”

To write with sensibility requires more than tears and moonlight. — G.C. Lichtenberg, Notebook F.23 #Lichtenbergianism #LichtenbergianQuotes

Make sure you throw them on fertile ground. #WasteBooks #Lichtenbergianism #postcardquotes

A vintage drawing of a cross-section of a pomegranate with the phrase, “The seeds are the part you throw away, right?”

Sometimes you have to go down a few space-time portals (aka 'rabbit holes') to get there. #SuccessiveApproximation #Lichtenbergianism #postcardquotes

A honeycombed background. A vintage photo of a boy reaches into one of the honeycombs; his arm appears through another honeycomb, reaching for a golden hexagon.

Be wary of passing the judgment: *obscure*. To find something obscure poses no difficulty: elephants and poodles find many things obscure. — G.C. Lichtenberg, Notebook E.36b #Lichtenbergianism #LichtenbergianQuotes

"You see it as a flaw.
Step back.
Look again.
#Gestalt #Lichtenbergianism" #postcardquotes

A piece of black art paper is glued onto a kraft paper background. It is rectangular, but a notch is cut out of the top. Asemic writing seems to indicate measurements and perhaps instructions about the situation.
@thatdale.bsky.socialSep 24, 2026, 2:47 PM

See all the pieces? All you have to do is pick them up and put them together. (See any patterns? Even better — use them!) #AbortiveAttempts #Lichtenbergianism #postcardquotes

An abstract sketch with red, white, and blue ink on a black background: squiggles and dotted lines.
