“The really important facts were that spatial relationships had ceased to matter very much and that my mind was perceiving the world in terms of other than spatial categories. At ordinary times the eye concerns itself with such problems as where? — how far? — how situated in relation to what? In the mescaline experience the implied questions to which the eye responds are of another order. Place and distance cease to be of much interest. The mind does its perceiving in terms of intensity of existence, profundity of significance, relationships within a pattern.”
― Aldous Huxley, The Doors of Perception

“Why didn't I learn to treat everything like it was the last time. My greatest regret was how much I believed in the future.”

“It ain't always rocket science, sometimes a door is just a door.”
