More quotes by 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
We live our lives from A-Z, but forget the other 24 letters in between.
Timothy Leary
Everyone carries a piece of the puzzle. Nobody comes into your life by mere coincidence. Trust your instincts. Do the unexpected. Find the others.
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
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
Romantic poetry and fiction of the last 2000 years has blinded us to the fact that emotions are a low form of jungle consciousness. Emotional actions are the most contracted, dangerous form of fanatic stupor.
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
In a carefully prepared, loving LSD session, a woman will inevitably have several hundred orgasms.
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
Drop out of the public schools. The public schools cannot be compromised with.
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
Almost everyone today is brain-damaged by our education which is designed to produce docile automatons.
Timothy Leary
LSD is known to induce psychosis, in people who have never used it.
Timothy Leary
Think for yourself. Know what you're doing. Question authority.
Timothy Leary
You simply cannot understand psychedelic drugs, which activate the brain, unless you understand something about computers.
Timothy Leary
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
The most important thing you do in your life is to die.
Timothy Leary
The universe is an intelligence test.
Timothy Leary
Anything is possible after midnight.
