Terence McKenna
“If you don't have a plan, you become part of somebody else's plan.”
Terence McKenna

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“Tolerance should really only be a passing attitude: it should lead to appreciation. To tolerate is to offend.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Svetlana Boym
“Nostalgia was diagnosed at a time when art and science had not yet entirely severed their umbilical ties and when the mind and body—internal and external well-being—were treated together. This was a diagnosis of a poetic science—and we should not smile condescendingly on the diligent Swiss doctors. Our progeny well might poeticize depression and see it as a metaphor for a global atmospheric condition, immune to treatment with Prozac.”
Svetlana Boym, The Future of Nostalgia

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

Svetlana Boym
“What is crucial is that nostalgia was not merely an expression of local longing, but a result of a new understanding of time and space that made the division into “local” and “universal” possible. The nostalgic creature has internalized this division, but instead of aspiring for the universal and the progressive he looks backward and yearns for the particular.”
Svetlana Boym, The Future of Nostalgia
