Timothy Leary

Don't take LSD unless you are very well prepared, unless you are specifically prepared to go out of your mind.

Think for yourself and question authority.

Our species has faced the frightening, terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are, or where we are going in this ocean of chaos . . .

You're only as young as the last time you changed your mind.

If you want to change the way people respond to you, change the way you respond to people.

The universe is an intelligence test.

In the information age, you don't teach philosophy as they did after feudalism. You perform it. If Aristotle were alive today he'd have a talk show.

We are dealing with the best-educated generation in history... The problem is that no one is giving them anything fresh. They've got a brain dressed up with nowhere to go.

Each religion has got their own way of making you feel like a victim. The Christians say "you are a sinner", and you better just zip up your trousers and give the money to the pope and we'll give you a room up in the hotel in the sky.
