Ichthyoallyeinotoxism (hallucinogenic fish poisoning)

Terence McKenna

“We are told ‘no’, we’re unimportant, we’re peripheral. ‘Get a degree, get a job, get this, get that.’ And then you’re a player, but you don’t want to play in the game. You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that’s being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.”
– Terence McKenna

Faust on emotional honesty.

The few of understanding, vision rare,
who veiled not from the herd their hearts, but tried,
poor generous fools, to lay their feelings bare,
them have men always burnt and crucified.

Rend the books, lest your heart be rent asunder.
