"The universe doesn't require that anybody be sorry, it just requires that you straighten up."
-- Stephen Gaskin

  1. Where is that quote from? The version of Monday Night Class searchable on Amazon now has it as "The universe doesn't require that anybody be ashamed, it just requires that you straighten up." Your version appears at http://www.cch.kcl.ac.uk/legacy/teaching/av1000/textanalysis/gaskin/stephen.txt, which seems to be someone's version of what Gaskin actually said (perhaps a more correct version?)

    This process of change in what a spiritual teacher is said to have said is interesting.

  2. John -- The quote is from Monday Night Class, an old paperback version. Inside the cover it says "4th printing." There are no page numbers, so I cannot give you an actual page reference. Strange indeed, unless they "edited" later printings.
