Terence McKenna

But that is a fool's argument for truth I mean, that's, after all, how a medicine show operates, you know: the juggler is so good, the medicine must be even better This is not an entirely rational way to proceed."

"It's clearly a crisis of two things: of consciousness and conditioning. We have the technological power, the engineering skills to save our planet, to cure disease, to feed the hungry, to end war; But we lack the intellectual vision, the ability to change our minds. We must decondition ourselves from 10,000 years of bad behavior. And, it's not easy." Terence McKenna
