      the most surreal thing is looping 25:30 to 25:32 and try to deduce is there´s some kind of subliminal conditioning there. Also, to wonder if the interviewer was really that fast with the remark or if there was any postediting involved. Doubt he being fast though, when he couldn´t understand the term cosmogony earlier

    Dali´s honesty is what made him appear so shocking in those days. I never realized that. Everything he says makes perfect sense and he's not holding back when he talks about his beliefs and perception of the world. People didn't get it, they thought his is some kind of Clown who mocks up strange things, when in fact he's just telling it like it is for him. Absolutely brilliant!

      Everyone has a unique perspective, but most people are afraid to express anything outside of the politically-correct group-consensus. Dali wasn't afraid to voice his abstract imaginations, which are rooted in absolute Truth. Because, as a prophet of God, I know that absolute Reality is totally abstract, and the finite and specific world of our conscious perceptions is an illusory simulation that was necessitated when we temporarily lost our desire for Truth. Dali would have loved my book, because it gives the logical and rational explanation of all this, and is entirely compelling for those who are ready for this information. One must see through the matrix of this finite and specific world simulation in order to see the infinite "Forest" rather than the illusory finite "trees." I don't receive RUclips comments notifications, but seekers will find me....

    This interview with Dali by Mike Wallace is probably the best one ever conducted. He succeeded is getting Dali to explain so much that subsequent interviews never achieved for example getting Dali to talk about how his art, his outrageousness, his "clowning" and his showmanship were all part of his efforts to express himself. Long after this interview he remained consistent to his thoughts about the meaning of chasity in logarithmic curve cauliflowers and rhinocerous horns, a phenomena in nature now more widely known as the "golden ratio" or fibonacci curve. Dali goes on to talk about the new discoveries in science with regard to chromosomes, physics, biology even anti-matter. Dali, in my opinion, was truly a genius in many ways.

In those days the general public didn't know much about anything or anybody, everything was new as we were slowly introduced to the world via TV. Dali blew the worlds mind when this was aired and everyone blew him off as just a nut who drew really weird paintings.

    Mike got confused when Dali explained the soft, flexible watches in "The Persistence of Memory". Dali was trying to say, in this interview anyway, that science has discovered that time is flexible and not persistent, not consistent throughout the universe. Einstein showed that time is relative to the observer, speeding up or slowing down depending on the relative motion of the two reference frames, and relative to the strength of gravity which itself is just the distortion of space-time. Rather brilliant for a non-scientist if you think about it.

    Smart, honesty, clear mind, perfectly makes sense.
    Okay, I can see ppl been rejected by percieved egoism, but if you listen more carefully, like here on topic of fear of death and his reasons for that, you can clearly see he almost defeated the ego in complete (altrough that is a struggle which never truly ends)
    Dali is certainly among my top 10 ppl Id mention who are the greatest ppl in history and had the deepest influence on myself.
    Rest in peace you crazy old fucker, you surely wasnt wrong when you pulled the Tesla (another from the bunch) theorem, about time working for you.
    I look up do all thjose ppl for different reasons, Dali is perhaps ONLY human I ever saw and heard who CONSTANTLY surprises me with his answers and views. And thats a feet SO UNIQUE it requires to be admired in itself.
    A fucking titan.

    Some people think, a painter can be famous only if he paints perfectly. In reality their personality and strong character made them famous. Nowadays many people try to get to the level of perfection with their paintings, but if you look at them or talk with them, they not jumping out from the crowd to you, because they forgot to create out something of themself, so much they focused on the canvas. So though they might paint better than others, nobody knows their name, noone wants to deal with them, because they do not have their unique personality, they are not brave enough to have their own opinion about things, wear their own style, their own color, have their own realm, their own wisdom. Well, painting good is not enough, because to enjoy a painting you have to enjoy the painter as well. They come hand in hand. If you develop your skills but you forget to develop yourself, you will not achieve anything, even if you paint until your death. When Dalì said, he enjoys every day to be more Dalì, that is what he ment. His persona was just as surrealistic as his paintings and the painting and the painter had a full harmonic relationship with each other. That is when it gets fascinating and gets your attention. If you can have such a unique mindset as he had, you can paint even stick figures, people will love it and your stickfigures can storm down any superrealistic painter around you. This thing I wrote specifically to those young and adult people, who are struggling in the field of creativity feeling they are not good enough. It has never been about beeing the most skilled artist, but rather being the most OF YOU, especially that part of you, what is differentiate you from every other people in the world. If you can find that part of you and you can express it, than you made your first step towards eternity, when your name will be written into encyclopedias and lexicons or maybe some other way will be preserved. In Ancient Egypt it was said "a person lives, until his/her name lives". So though you might die when you are 70-80, but if people remember your name centuries or millenias later, you still considered a living being, because you still have the direct effect on people's everyday life. They will borrow your thoughts, your sentences, your look, your style, your feelings, therefore you will live in those people further, you extend yourself towards the future and if you can imagine even towards the past. To be exceptional thinker in your time never a sweet smooth feeling, because you can expect, that people will ridicule you until your death. But what is coming after, that worth every risk. In the eye of the future even the craziest people can become something extremely beautiful. So if you see someone, who is painting way better than you, do not take off your brushes, do not give up, because there are many other ways to catch people's heart other than some really good brushstrokes. Not really the brushstroke what is matter, but rather your story to it.

    Dali talking about the beauty of death made me think of my father who died tragically when I was a teenager. Before he died I could have listed a million things wrong with him. After, it's like those things didn't matter as much and I just clung to the good memories.
    In life he was a flawed human like the rest of us. In death you become like an angel. And the deeds of your life become almost like myths.
