People have a right to get stoned. They have a right to think and explore their own minds. This is as intimate a part of their being as their sexuality. Any culture which mitigates that is clearly afraid of a full and fair and open dialogue about what reality is and what real human values ought to be.

I don't believe consciousness is generated in the brain any more than television programs are made inside my TV. The box is too small.

Television is, to my mind, the most insidious drug that the 20th Century has had to deal with.

I believe that what makes the psychedelic experience so central is that it is a connection into a larger modality of organization on the planet, which is a fancy way of saying it connects you up to the mind of Nature Herself.

The human brain is the god of technological innovation.

Nature is not mute, it is a man who is deaf.

It is the people who are 'far out' who are gaining advantage in the evolutionary jostling for efficacious strategies.
