I think that the alien will be so alien that your jaw will hang in the air.

It is transdimensional travel, literally.

You sit down, you shut up, and you pay attention - on an empty stomach, in a dark room, feeling comfortable.

My God! Nature Is ALIVE! It's talking to us!! IT'S ALIVE!!! This is not a metaphor, I am not a Romantic, this is not an artistic or esthetic stance. NATURE IS ALIVE. Someone is on the line..

People think that psychedelics are somehow the easy way out. This is what people think who wouldn't dare dream of taking one, and it's not because it's the easy way out... It's because they sense it's very real.

It's not a metaphor. It's not an analogy. It's not a dramatic reconstruction. It is not a simulacrum. It is not a model. It's real.

DMT, the most powerful of all hallucinogens, occurs in the human brain as a normal part of metabolism. It also is a schedule one drug, so you're all holding - and this might be the basis for some kind of case. To just show what absolute poppycock all this nonsense is, PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MADE ILLEGAL.

Through a series of successive linguistic declensions, that's what it was. I mean this begins to sound almost biblical because what we're saying is there's a fall, and the fall is somehow related to a confusion of languages - not one from another but from the object of experience, and as the language became less and less natural, the world of the species using this language became less and less natural.

Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third story window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behavior and information processing. They open you up to the possibility that everything you know is wrong. Government and society spend a lot of money educating you into being a loyal worker, consumer, debt payer and citizen.

Some of these samples (quotes here) have been edited and a few have been practically master-mixed, but none of them misrepresent any of Terence's ideas except for the obvious joke or two. Be aware that I invented the questions to fit the quotes, this is not an actual q and a, lets call it virtual. The quotes were sampled from recordings of his lectures and workshops, many of which are available. The face in the border gif was found at City of Tribes and promptly distorted by yours truly. (BACK)
