Timothy Leary
People have to go out of their mind before they can come to their senses.
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
Think for yourself. Know what you're doing. Question authority.
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
I learned more about psychology in the five hours after taking these mushrooms than in the preceding 15 years of studying and doing research in psychology.
Timothy Leary
A man without justice is a beast, and a man who would make himself a beast forgets the pain of being a man.
