Everything we did in the 1960s was designed to fission, to weaken faith in and conformity to the 1950s social order. Our precise surgical target was the Judeo-Christian power monolith, which has imposed a guilty, inhibited, grim, anti-body, anti-life repression on Western civilization.

Timothy Leary
I despise followers of any kind, especially those who follow me.
Timothy Leary
You are a God Act like one!
Timothy Leary
Give death a better name or die trying.
Timothy Leary
My favorite three words in the English language are: ’I don’t know’, because every time I say them, I learn something new.
Timothy Leary
Drop out of the public schools. The public schools cannot be compromised with.
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
All suffering is caused by being in the wrong place. If you're unhappy where you are, MOVE.
Timothy Leary
The universe is an intelligence test.
