Stuff that's hidden and murky and ambiguous is scary because you don't know what it does.
Jerry Garcia

Truth is something you stumble into when you think you're going someplace else.
Jerry Garcia
Image
The nature of what we're doing is something, which is by its very nature, is non-formulaic. There's no way that you can make it happen by intention alone. It's something that you have to sort of allow it to happen, and you have to allow for it to happen.

The Japanese are hard to figure out.
Jerry Garcia

Everybody needs adventure, and everybody needs something to enlarge his or her lives.
Jerry Garcia

If we had any nerve at all, if we had any real balls as a society, or whatever you need, whatever quality you need, real character, we would make an effort to really address the wrongs in this society, righteously.

One of the things that's attractive about cyberspace is that it can be construed as no threat. If you see it through the video game keyhole, the amusement keyhole, the entertainment keyhole, it is no threat. If you see it through the LSD keyhole, the consciousness-expanding keyhole, it's like electronic drugs: it is a threat.

I think the Muslim religious is a little too tight. It doesn't fit humans. Humans can't possibly fit into it, so there are a lot of really unhappy people, terribly repressed. It is a religion that works against you because the template don't fit. It's not human, you know.

We're like licorice. Not everybody likes licorice, but the people who like licorice really like licorice.
Jerry Garcia
Image
If you think of music as a language, the space part is where you throw out all the syntax.
Jerry Garcia
Image
And as far as I'm concerned, it's like I say, drugs are not the problem. Other stuff is the problem.
Jerry Garcia
Image
We're not uncomfortable with it, and we've already been through enough of the music business where I'm not really worried that commercial success is going to in some way - we're already past saving, you know what I mean? It's too late for us.
Jerry Garcia

Each person makes their own decision about what it is that is happening, whether they like it or don't like it, whether they want to lend their energy to it or not or what, you know.
Jerry Garcia
Image
Magic is what we do, music is how we do it.
Jerry Garcia
Image
I think The Grateful Dead kind of represents the spirit of being able to go out and have an adventure in America at large.

What we need is something, a definition of a human, starting from the ground up, so that the suitable moral structure that goes around it makes sense. The context has to come from the human first, rather than bits and pieces of fragments of old religion and all of the old moral superstructure, whatever it used to be.
