“I always thought it would be good to do a psychedelic movie like ‘2001: A Space Odyssey.'”
“There is that sense that we have to all come together, the challenges have become so great for the human species that it’s going to take all of us to find our way out. One of the ways to achieve this goal, of course, is to expand the freedom of religions so that those people who use psychedelics within their religious practise are able to do so. -Rick Doblin”
@Cameron Adams
“For more than 10 years, Daniel Snaith has been playing mad scientist with pop and psychedelic music. As Manitoba, and more recently as Caribou, he’s pushed the genres’ limits with electronics and studio trickery.”
@Anthony Fantano
“If, as Max Weber contended, science, modernity, and rationalism have disenchanted the world and swept it clean of gods, spirits, and magic (or, at least, problematised believing in them), then psychedelics offer a potential way out of the ensuing existential impasse. -Andy Letcher”
@Cameron Adams
“I was pretty young when my folks were playing those kinds of records, ’70s rock, and psychedelic stuff. So I just remember those songs being synonymous with my childhood, and I was always trying to imitate them on piano.”
@Borns
“The question that we need to address is this: What relevance do these ancient traditions have to the experience of a modern adolescent growing up in the Western world? Rather than indulge in idle speculation, I have invited a number of young people to express their views on psychedelics and the effects these substances have had upon their lives and minds.”
@Rick Doblin
“I wouldn’t say making psychedelic music is my focus. That’s not the modus operandi for Tame Impala. It’s about making music that moves people.”
@Kevin Parker
“It should come as no surprise to readers of the MAPS Bulletin that psychedelic plants are used as a sacrament by many native cultures all over the world. It may not be so obvious that these same plants are often incorporated into the coming-of-age ceremonies of these various societies.”
@Rick Doblin
“When I first started out, I was making really slow, psychedelic ambient music because it was all I could do.”
@Grimes
“It’s a remarkable experience to ask yourself identity-crisis questions from a comic book movie with a mostly straight face, but I don’t recommend it.”

@Ray Manzarek

@Rick Doblin

@Daniel Radcliffe
“The cultural integration of psychedelics won’t happen overnight, and the question of young people is perhaps the most difficult involved. The first step is for people who have knowledge of these substances to share it, “coming out” about their own experiences. Drug education should be honest and present a balanced picture of risks and benefits.”
@Rick Doblin
“I’ve got the best parents you could ever ask for. My parents are from New Jersey, and they met in Vermont in college. My Dad grew up listening to heavy, psychedelic music. He’s my biggest fan.”
@King Tuff

@Alejandro Jodorowsky
“Psychedelics are not a substitute for faith. They are a door to authentic faith, born of encountering directly the sacred dimension of everyday experience. This is not the only gate to that discovery, but it is the most ancient and universal, and potentially the most accessible to the majority of the human race.”
@Rick Doblin
“It’s mind-altering when you slip into someone else’s shoes. That’s psychedelic, man.”
@Bryan Cranston
“The human psyche is not unitary; we all have different parts. This phenomenon is widely recognized, but in psychiatry, the terminology and theories about it are far from unified. Nevertheless, I think dissociation, parts, sub-personalities, selves, and complexes are all referring to the same or to overlapping phenomenon.”
@Rick Doblin
Quotes about Psychedelics
“‘Summer of Love: Art of the Psychedelic Era,’ the Whitney Museum’s 40th-anniversary trip down counterculture memory lane, provides moments of buzzy fun, but it’ll leave you only comfortably numb. For starters, it may be the whitest, straightest, most conservative show seen in a New York museum since psychedelia was new.”
@Jerry Saltz
“People tend to link “sex and drugs” because both are condemned by society. Nevertheless, throughout the ages, human beings have continually searched for more ecstasy, more sexual satisfaction, for solutions to their sexual problems, and for aphrodisiacs.”
@Rick Doblin
“‘Psychedelic’ means mind-expanding.”
@Ian Brown
“Terence McKenna pointed out that “the profundity of [hallucinogenic inebriation] and its potential for a positive feedback into the process of reorganizing the personality should have long ago made psychedelics an indispensable tool for psychotherapy.”
@Brad Burge
“Hearing is a subjective experience, but I never really understood that it’s the same with seeing as well. I always thought that everything we see is the same for everyone. But having these more psychedelic experiences of being really, really sad made me realize how brittle reality can be.”
@Robyn
“I think of going to the Grave without having a Psychedelic Experience is like going to the Grave without ever having Sex. It means that you never Figured out what it is all about. The Mystery is in the Body and the way the Body Works itself into Nature.”
@Terence McKenna
“I’ve always argued that all Tame Impala melodies are pure pop. It’s just that ‘Lonerism,’ for example, is a completely rumbling, fuzzed out psychedelic rock album. But for me, it was just pop music produced the way that I like to produce it.”
@Kevin Parker
“Part of what psychedelics do is they decondition you from cultural values. This is what makes it such a political hot potato. Since all culture is a kind of con game, the most dangerous candy you can hand out is one which causes people to start questioning the rules of the game.”
@Terence McKenna
“When you read the psychedelic literature, there is a distinction between the so-called natural psychedelics and synthetic psychedelics that are artificially produced.”
@Stanislav Grof
“I am not looking at the world, not confronting it; I am knowing it by a continuous process of transforming it into myself, so that everything around me, the whole globe of space, no longer feels away from me but in the middle.”
@Alan W. Watts
“A lot of Ennio Morricone’s music is just – it’s very soulful, very cinematic, and very psychedelic.”
@Adrian Younge
“Pathology can indeed evoke experiences of Absolute Godliness, but not all God experiences are caused by pathology. They can also occur due to disturbance in the geomagnetic field of our planet, consumption of psychedelics, excruciatingly extreme level of stress during a near- death situation, or ultimately through a natural and healthy procedure of meditation or/and prayer.”
@Abhijit Naskar
“As long as I had easy access to psychedelics at the government-sponsored research project, most of my energy went into psychedelic sessions.”
@Stanislav Grof
“Dan explains the trip’s itinerary, which includes trekking through the jungle, boating down the Amazon River, and to my surprise, three Ayahuasca ceremonies.”
@Michael Sanders
“Since the 1960s, mainstream media has searched out and co-opted the most authentic things it could find in youth culture, whether that was psychedelic culture, anti-war culture, blue jeans culture. Eventually, heavy metal culture, rap culture, electronica – they’ll look for it and then market it back to kids at the mall.”
@Douglas Rushkoff
“Entheogens (or psychedelics, to be more historically correct) have now been recognized as the mother of our Western ecology and conservation movements, as well as the entire field of transpersonal psychology and our apparent desire to return to some firsthand spiritual and/or mystical understanding of G/d (rather than blindly accepting traditional religious dogma without an experiential basis.”
@James Oroc
“It’s time to move on to the next step in the psychedelic revolution. We’ve reached a certain point, but we’re not moving any more.”
@Ken Kesey
“The marijuana paradox – although associated with increased appetite and calorie consumption, regular use of cannabis, protects against diabetes and obesity. How it manages to do so, however, is still anybody’s guess!”
@The Fitness Doc
“Whilst I’m all for psychedelic science – I think it’s fantastic – I don’t think we necessarily have time to wait for the science to tell us these medicines are useful. The indigenous cultures have already shown us the ways.”
@Gail Bradbrook
“Psychedelics show you what’s in and on your mind, those subconscious thoughts and feelings that are are hidden, covered up, forgotten, out of sight, maybe even completely unexpected, but nevertheless imminently present. Depending upon set and setting, the same drug, at the same dose, can cause vastly different responses in the same person. One day, very little happens; another day, you soar, full of ecstatic and insightful discoveries; the next, you struggle through a terrifying nightmare. The generic nature of psychedelic, a term wide open to interpretation, suits these effects.”
@Rick Strassman M.D.
Psychedelic Quotes about Life
“Probably every band – you get back to like, The Stones are kind of the tough guys, Beatles are kind of psychedelic, Led Zeppelin was kinda mystical, The Who are kind of mods. You know, you just go right through. Everyone’s kind of adopted their so-called persona or flavor if you will.”
@Kyle Gass
“The only way to write honestly about the scene is to be part of it. If there is one quick truism about psychedelic drugs, it is that anyone who tries to write about them without first-expierience is a fool and a fraud.”
@Hunter S. Thompson
“I’ve always felt that all the music I’ve made is psychedelic, including Throbbing Gristle.”

@Robert Celner

“Mario blinked. His reflection did not. “That’s the odd thing about depression,” Mario reflected, “a human can survive anything, as long as they have a clear end in sight. A purpose. Take that away and they sink like pennies in mire: gently at first and then engulfed without notice by the dark waters of the bog.”
@Louise Blackwick
“I think I’m constantly surprised that adults can’t deal with illogical things or thing that are weird or psychedelic. I’ve never really lost that.”
@Noel Fielding
“Like an exploding cannonball, he was blasted out of his body – feet forward, arms clutching at his sides – through a tunnel of cold, midnight sky. Mario’s human instinct told him screaming was appropriate, and yet some other side of him was in transcendental awe.”
@Louise Blackwick
“Testify’ went from a clean Motown song to straight psychedelic. Loud and feedback and people was loving it, because Motown was ending now.”

@Mokokoma Mokhonoana
“I already had top 10 records before ‘Sunshine Superman,’ with ‘Catch the Wind’ and ‘Colors,’ but this was a real breakthrough for me. It was a consciousness change for songwriting, as people are now saying I initiated the psychedelic revolution with this album, ‘Sunshine Superman.'”
@Donovan
“The Beatles, they brought a whole new dimension to pop music. Of course, the psychedelic period is much more interesting to me, starting with ‘Rubber Soul’ and on to the ‘White Album.’ Great, great records. I was such a Beatles fan. I was very sad when they broke up.”
@John McLaughlin
“I have been to the Center of the Earth. I have ventured below charcoal maps of great explorers – records superficially hollow in comparison to my voyage.”
@Vladimir Hlocky
“I used to wear this cowboy outfit. I wouldn’t take off. It was ridiculous. My mum was like, ‘You’ve got to take that off sometime,’ and I was like, ‘No way, this is it.’ It was the ’70s – it was turquoise and yellow, really psychedelic colors. I wanted to be a psychedelic cowboy.”
@Noel Fielding
“Patients reported that their psychedelic sessions were an invaluable experiential training for dying.”
@Stanislav Grof
“The old you is only a shadow of the reality which is the new you. The shadow is useless without its reality.”
@Efrat Cybulkiewicz

@Ric Ocasek
“Through psychedelics, we are learning that God is not an idea, God is a lost continent in the human mind. That continent has been rediscovered in a time of great peril for ourselves and our world. Is this coincidence, synchronicity, or a cruelly meaningless juxtaposition of hope and ruin?”
@Terrence McKenna
“When I think about the real pioneers of the psychedelic movement in a musical sense, not just the culture, everything had a handmade sort of vibe to it. We’re inventing our culture as we move along into this.”
@Chris Robinson
“Lao Tzu once said, ‘Nature doesn’t hurry, yet everything is accomplished.’ A single seed planted, eventually becomes a garden in time – when things get tough, tend to the garden in your mind.”
@Jennifer Sodini
“I do not view myself as a psychedelic person but as a yogi. Although most link the Beatles with bringing awareness of yoga to the public, it was myself who actually brought yoga into the mainstream in the United States.”
@Peter Max
“The only spirit that ever gave me a name was St. Tammany whom reassured me of my future success early on and kept saying the name Matthew Edward Hall whom i predict will be a prophet or future savior of some sort. I’ve confirmed St. Tammany to be Tamanend, the only Native American Saint.”
@Terence McKenna
“Right from the outset, the prevailing mindset in British comics fandom was a radical and progressive one. We were all proto-hippies, and we all thought that comics would be greatly improved if everything was a bit psychedelic like Jim Steranko.”
@Alan Moore
“I was on acid and I looked at the trees and I realized that they all came to points, and the little branches came to points, and the houses came to point. I thought, ‘Oh! Everything has a point, and if it doesn’t, then there’s a point to it.”
@Harry Nilsson

@Eugene Chadbourne
“It’s a very salutary thing to realize that the rather dull universe in which most of us spend most of our time is not the only universe there is. I think it’s healthy that people should have this experience.”

@Diplo
“In teaching color, you teach people how to look something and see the tone in it and break it down to be able to paint it and reproduce that color. But then, I’m psychedelic, so I look at color differently. I like colors that are in contrast with one another so that they flicker back and forth.”
@John Van Hamersveld
