“Using a back-of-an-envelope calculation, since LSD was banned in the late 1960s possibly 100 million people have died prematurely from alcohol abuse. They were denied a treatment with some strong evidence. And even if LSD had helped only 10 percent of them, that would have saved 10 million lives.”
David J. Nutt, Psychedelics: The revolutionary drugs that could change your life – a guide from the expert

“...set out to rectify this absurd—I would even say obscene—denial of scientific inquiry and potential therapeutic progress.”
David J. Nutt, Psychedelics: The revolutionary drugs that could change your life – a guide from the expert

Karen Armstrong
“And, crucially, we need good myths that help us to venerate the earth as sacred once again, because unless there is a spiritual revolution that challenges the destructiveness of our technological genius, we will not save our planet.”
Karen Armstrong, Sacred Nature: Restoring Our Ancient Bond with the Natural World

“But in the 1960s, psychedelics were banned, not because they were dangerous, but for political reasons. When LSD left the lab and therapy rooms, the youth movement it fueled went against the “square” status quo and changed how young people thought, in particular about being drafted for the Vietnam War.”
David J. Nutt, Psychedelics: The revolutionary drugs that could change your life – a guide from the expert

“Johnson’s research shows that psychedelics have the potential to revolutionize quitting smoking. If psychedelics hadn’t been banned, it seems likely that this use would have been discovered much sooner, and many millions of lives would have been saved.”
David J. Nutt, Psychedelics: The revolutionary drugs that could change your life – a guide from the expert
