Terence McKenna Quotes

My Faith Is With Technology And With Psychedelics. Politics Aren't Going To Take Us Much Further. We're Awakening As A Planet To The Very Good News That All Ideology Is Parochial And Culturally Defined, Like Painting Yourself Blue Or Scarifying Your Penis. A Culture Is A Limited Enterprise. How Could Someone Be So Naive As To Imagine That An Ideology, A Thought System Generated By The Monkey Mind, Would Be Adequate To Explain The Universe? That's Preposterous. It's Like Meeting A Termite Who Tells You He's A Philosopher. What Could You Do But Smile At The Very Notion.
