“I’m extremely reverent; it just depends what I’m looking at,” he told The Times in 2014. “From the outside, my life may look chaotic, but inside I feel like some kind of monk licking an ice cream cone while straddling a runaway horse.” #riptomrobbins
My heart hurts for this one. Thank you for all the irreverent profundity.

“A sense of humor...is superior to any religion so far devised.” #RIPTomRobbins Everyone should read his books!
I dedicate this 80's college doodle to the memory of Tom Robbins today. Absurd yet full of meaning, I think, like his writing. Amusing but going somewhere. Humor in the face of evil, something we need very much today. #RIPtomrobbins #writing #artsky #counterculture #simile #tomrobbins #donkeyfart
Actor Tony Roberts and Novelist Tom Robbins have died in the last few days.
If things happen in threes, does that mean self-help guru Tony Robbins is next? 😳 #RIPTonyRoberts #RIPTomRobbins

My favorite local Seattle author. I’ll always remember how he grinned and stood and shook my hand when I asked him to sign my book a certain way. #RIPTomRobbins
Over a decade ago a fan threw a Tom Robbins book on my stage. So I read it. Then I bought his entire catalogue and bought his books intermittently over the years for others to enjoy. He was my greatest travel companion. #RIPTomRobbins
You will be missed by many. #RIPTomRobbins
Skinny Legs and All left such an impression w me. (hoop quote from Jitterbug Perfume) #riptomrobbins
I worked with Tom Robbins briefly directing a musical based on his “children’s” novella “B is for Beer”
The show was a beacon of quirky positivity,
and so was he.
So grateful for what he brought to the world.

Wow, I was a big fan back in the day. Even Cowgirls Get the Blues is excellent, Still Life with woodpecker. I reference the line about being unable to 'make love stay' quite a bit. #RIPTomRobbins.
#RIPTomRobbins Tom told me an unknown folk singer demanded to sing on Tom's KRAB-FM show, RIGHT NOW. Tom was off to SeaTac on vacation, vowed to air him upon return. Singer was enraged. It was pre-fame Charles Manson. "He was like a guy who discovered electricity but not insulation," Tom told me.
