"A fire broke out backstage in a theatre. The clown came out to warn the public; they thought it was a joke and applauded. He repeated it; the acclaim was even greater. I think that's just how the world will come to an end: to general applause from wits who believe it's a joke."
— Søren Kierkegaard, Either/Or


and the one in my signature is Niels Bohr.

I actually enjoyed 'The Doors of Perception' by Aldous Huxley

If you haven't read it I suggest you do.

EDIT: I can't remember a lot of it that's why I got no quote... but I remember it being good!

If you dig Huxley, you'd like McKenna's stuff too! T-Mac is the shizzle.

I'll allow Native American quotes, cuz they weren't so big on books, but I don't hate on spoken tradition.

"White people go to church to talk about God. Indians eat peyote to talk TO God." Quannah Parker
