Terence McKenna (Terence Kemp McKenna) Quotes
If you take psychedelics and the Internet and music and put all of that together you have the basis for a new community that is wider and deeper than you know.

They work for capitalist dogs, of course, because we all do, but the creative thrust of these technologies is being driven by people just like you and me.
