More quotes by Timothy Leary
Critics have told me I've ruined the lives of 50 million young people. I can't be certain of this, since only about 10 million have ever come back to thank me.
Timothy Leary
Half the things I've done are wrong, mistakes [unintelligible]. The moratorium on pot and LSD a year ago is ridiculous. I shouldn't have done that. I make a blunder at least one out of two times I come to bat.
Timothy Leary
I have always considered myself, when I learned what the word meant, I've always considered myself a Pagan.
Timothy Leary
We are dealing with the best-educated generation in history. They are a hundred times better educated than their grandparents, and ten times more sophisticated. There has never been such an open-minded group. The problem is that no one is giving them anything fresh. They've got a brain dressed up with nowhere to go.
Timothy Leary
We cannot study the brain, the instrument for fabricating the realities we inhabit, using the mental constructs of the past.
Timothy Leary
Human beings have a right to change their consciousness, and it is unconscionable and absolutely wrong for any government or any person to stand in the way of someone choosing to change their consciousness.
Timothy Leary
In the information age, you don't teach philosophy as they did after feudalism. You perform it. If Aristotle were alive today he'd have a talk show.
Timothy Leary
You simply cannot understand psychedelic drugs, which activate the brain, unless you understand something about computers.
Timothy Leary
My advice to people today is as follows: if you take the game of life seriously, if you take your nervous system seriously, if you take your sense organs seriously, if you take the energy process seriously, you must turn on, tune in, and drop out.
Timothy Leary
I've left specific instructions that I do not want to be brought back during a Republican administration.
Timothy Leary
Fundamentalist Christianity appeals to pre-civilized, prudish tribal people who are not ready for urban feudal pleasures.
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
If you want to change the way people respond to you, change the way you respond to people.
Timothy Leary
By drop out, I mean to detach yourself from involvement in secular, external social games.
Timothy Leary
Women who seek to be equal with men lack ambition.
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
That intermediate manifestation of the divine process which we call the DNA code has spent the last 2 billion years making this planet a Garden of Eden.
Timothy Leary
Higher has always been the trajectory of intelligent evolution.
Timothy Leary
We live our lives from A-Z, but forget the other 24 letters in between.
Timothy Leary
When you get the message, hang up the phone.
