We can study material processes and various processes at the energetic level, that is what we can do as natural scientists. And then there comes something quite different, the psychic experience, which remains a mystery.

More quotes by Albert Hofmann
Consciousness is Gods' gift to mankind.
Albert Hofmann
It is true that my discovery of LSD was a chance discovery, but it was the outcome of planned experiments and these experiments took place in the framework of systematic pharmaceutical, chemical research. It could better be described as serendipity.
Albert Hofmann
In many instances, LSD actually produced terrifying and deleterious effects instead of beneficial effects, because of misuse, because it was a profanation.
Albert Hofmann
Wrong and inappropriate use has caused LSD to become my problem child.
Albert Hofmann
Go to the meadows, go to the garden, go to the woods. Open your eyes!
Albert Hofmann
I became very sensitive to what will happen to all this and all of us.
Albert Hofmann
Through my LSD experience and my new picture of reality, I became aware of the wonder of creation, the magnificence of nature and of the animal and plant kingdom. I became very sensitive to what will happen to all this and all of us.
Albert Hofmann
God only speaks to those who understand the language
Albert Hofmann
LSD wanted to tell me something. It gave me an inner joy, an open mindedness, a gratefulness, open eyes and an internal sensitivity for the miracles of creation.
Albert Hofmann
People who use LSD today know how to use it. Therefore, I hope that the health authorities will get the insight that LSD, if it is used properly, is not a dangerous drug. We actually should not refer to it as drug this word has a very bad connotation. We should use another name.
Albert Hofmann
I think that in human evolution it has never been as necessary to have this substance LSD. It is just a tool to turn us into what we are supposed to be.
Albert Hofmann
I know LSD I don't need to take it anymore. Maybe when I die, like Aldous Huxley.
Albert Hofmann
After some time, with my eyes closed, I began to enjoy this wonderful play of colors and forms, which it really was a pleasure to observe. Then I went to sleep and the next day I was fine. I felt quite fresh, like a newborn.
Albert Hofmann
It's very, very dangerous to lose contact with living nature.
Albert Hofmann
We can study various psychic functions and also the more primitive sensory functions, such as seeing, hearing, and so on, which constitute our image of our everyday world. They have a material side and the psychic side. And that is a gap which you cannot explain.
Albert Hofmann
The productive sender is the outer world, the external reality including our own body. The receiver is our deep self, the conscious ego, which then transforms the outer stimuli into a psychological experience.
Albert Hofmann
Evolution of mankind is paralleled by the increase and expansion of consciousness.
Albert Hofmann
Psychedelic substances, if they are used in proper ways, are very helpful for mankind.
Albert Hofmann
I was completely astonished by the beauty of nature. Our eyes see just a small fraction of the light in the world. It is a trick to make a colored world, which does not exist outside of human beings.
Albert Hofmann
When you study natural science and the miracles of creation, if you don't turn into a mystic you are not a natural scientist.
