“Are you a relativist simply because you say, for instance, that the other is the other, and that every other is other than the other? If I want to pay attention to the singularity of the other, the singularity of the situation, the singularity of language, is that relativism? … No, relativism is a doctrine which has its own history in which there are only points of view with no absolute necessity, or no references to absolutes. That is the opposite to what I have to say. … I have never said such a thing. Neither have I ever used the word relativism.”
― Jacques Derrida

“I have cast fire upon the world, and see, I am guarding it until it blazes.”
― Anonymous, The Gospel of Thomas: The Hidden Sayings of Jesus

“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

“Within the magic world view, coincidence is confirmation.”
― D. Michael Quinn, Early Mormonism and the Magic World View
