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.

We know nothing about Africa, although our roots are there in terms of our forbearers. But I mean as far as the average Negro today, he knows nothing about Africa.
