Terence McKenna (Terence Kemp McKenna) Quotes
It is no coincidence that a rebirth of psychedelic use is occuring as we acquire the technological capability to leave the planet.

A telepathic, humane, universalist kind of human culture is emerging that will make everything that preceded it appear like the stone age.
