Terence McKenna (Terence Kemp McKenna) Quotes
Nature is not our enemy, to be raped and conquered. Nature is ourselves, to be cherished and explored.

These allies are the hallucinogenic plants and the mysterious teaching entities, luminous and transcendental, that reside in that nearby dimension of ecstatic beauty and understanding that we have denied until it is now nearly too late.
