More quotes by Timothy Leary
The program is a voyage chart, a series of signals, which, like the pilot's radio, provides the basic orienting information required for the trip.
Timothy Leary
Psychedelic drugs cause paranoia, confusion, and total loss of reality in politicians that have never taken them.
Timothy Leary
Individual societies begin in harmonious adaptation to the environment and, like individuals, quickly get trapped into nonadaptive, artificial, repetitive sequences.
Timothy Leary
Man's best friend is his dogma.
Timothy Leary
Women who seek to be equal with men lack ambition.
Timothy Leary
I have always considered myself, when I learned what the word meant, I've always considered myself a Pagan.
Timothy Leary
If you want to change the way people respond to you, change the way you respond to people.
Timothy Leary
The mission of DNA is to evolve nervous systems able to escape from the doomed planet and contact manifestations of the same amino-acid seeding that have evolved in other solar systems. The mission is the message--to escape and come home.
Timothy Leary
Giger’s work disturbs us, spooks us, because of its enormous evolutionary time span. It shows us, all too clearly, where we come from and where we are going.
Timothy Leary
In the information-communication civilization of the 21st Century, creativity and mental excellence will become the ethical norm. The world will be too dynamic, complex, and diversified, too cross-linked by the global immediacies of modern (quantum) communication, for stability of thought or dependability of behaviour to be successful.
Timothy Leary
The universe is an intelligence test.
Timothy Leary
Trust your instincts. Do the unexpected. Find the others.
Timothy Leary
Don't be intimidated by Caesar's Hollywood fake versions of religiosity. If life has a meaning for you beyond the TV-studio game, you are religious! Spell it out!
Timothy Leary
We seem to inhabit a universe made up of a small number of elements-particles-bits that swirl in chaotic clouds, occasionally clustering together in geometrically logical temporary configurations.
Timothy Leary
When you get the message, hang up the phone.
Timothy Leary
When you teach someone how to perform creatively (ie, associate dead symbols in new combinations), you expand his potential for experiencing more widely and richly.
Timothy Leary
I am 100 percent in favor of the intelligent use of drugs, and 1,000 percent against the thoughtless use of them, whether caffeine or LSD. And drugs are not central to my life.
Timothy Leary
Learning how to operate a soul figures to take time.
Timothy Leary
After you turn on, don't spend the rest of your life contemplating the inner wonders. Begin immediately expressing your revelation in acts of beauty.
Timothy Leary
People have to go out of their mind before they can come to their senses.
