¡¡¡HEY!!!

"Consciousness now can be manipulated chemically through the entire spectrum from coma to ecstasy, for good or ill, for expansion or contraction, for enrichment, wisdom or self-destruction, the benefit or control and destruction of others, for transcendence or reduction to the vegetative state. To condemn all use as abuse and to attempt to wipe out an activity that, in historical and psychological perspective, is so fundamental to the human quest is to ignore the neuro-chemical nature of consciousness, hopeless and absurd. History has shown quite clearly that legally or illegally, overtly or covertly, as part of the dominant culture or the counter-culture - we will pry into our circuitry, learn our systems. There has been and will be no preventing the "robot" from self-discovery." Neil Freer

"Here's the deal. We have the science, the technology, the money, the infrastructure, to do almost anything that we want to do. The problem is changing our minds. We have a hell of a time changing our minds, and yet we must. There is no choice about it. The reason I'm a psychedelic advocate is not because I think it's easy, or because I think it's a sure thing - I don't think it's easy or a sure thing. It's simply that it's the only game in town. Nothing else can change your mind on a dime like we are going to have to change our minds on a dime. If we had 500 years to sort this out, we could maybe have a fighting chance without radical pharmacological intervention. As it is, if we don't awaken, we are going to let it slip through our fingers." Terence McKenna again, Live at Fez
