Publius Terentius Afer, better known in English as Terence, was a playwright of the Roman Republic, of North African descent. His comedies were performed for the first time around 170–160 BC.

Nothing is as boundary dissolving, except for psychedelic compounds, as travel. Travel is up there.

I'm not an advocate of drugs. I'm an advocate of psychedelics.

I'm not an advocate for everything that rolls out of the laboratory. I'm an advocate for things sanctioned by millennia of usage.

The world is not made of anti-mu mesons, quarks, and photons, and electromagnetic fields. Reality is made of words.
ecosystems mind pipeline
The fungi became, or is for some mysterious reason still to be discovered, a pipeline into a mind, an entelechy, which we can only image as feminine and can only associate somehow to the environment, to the ecosystem.

data expectations psychedelic
The psychedelic universe, whatever it is, is the major datum of experience. It's larger than this planet. Nobody knows how large it is. The further in you go the bigger it gets. We don't know what to make of something like that. It's the reverse of our expectations.

The culture cannot evolve faster than the language. The language is the flashlight that shows the path.

Our assumptions are the edges of our worlds.
intelligent safe life-is
Although whenever you have intelligent life in the presence of large explosions, a safe bet is that the intelligent life is responsible for the large explosion.
language faster evolve
We cannot evolve faster than our language. The edge of being is the edge of meaning, and somehow we have to push the edge of meaning. We have to extend it.
