I wanted to scientize myth and mythologize science.

The universe is an intelligence test.

In a carefully prepared, loving LSD session, a woman will inevitably have several hundred orgasms.
Timothy Leary
Image
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
Image
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

When you get the message, hang up the phone.

You cannot use butterfly language to communicate with caterpillars
Timothy Leary

LSD is known to induce psychosis, in people who have never used it.
