You cannot use butterfly language to communicate with caterpillars
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
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
Individual societies begin in harmonious adaptation to the environment and, like individuals, quickly get trapped into nonadaptive, artificial, repetitive sequences.
Timothy Leary

Timothy Leary
Living, dying, and thinking... they're all team sports.
Timothy Leary
By drop out, I mean to detach yourself from involvement in secular, external social games.
Timothy Leary
I think that marijuana makes you stupid but sensual. I've watched many of my friends and loved ones become more erotic and dumber - just going around with a glazed expression on their faces from their last orgasms to the next - and found them really quite boring.
Timothy Leary
Psychedelic drugs cause paranoia, confusion, and total loss of reality in politicians that have never taken them.
