Timothy Leary

Gestern vor 10 Jahren verstarb der Timothy Leary. Poet, Querdenker, Philosoph und Cybernaut. Seine Worte haben bis heute nichts von ihrer Wichtigkeit verloren:

"Think for yourself. Question authority. Throughout human history as our species has faced the frightening terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are or where we are going in this ocean of chaos it has been the authorities - the political, the religious, the educational authorities - who attempted to comfort us by giving us order, rules regulations - informing, forming in our minds their view of reality. To think for yourself you must question authority and learn how to put yourself in a state of vulnerable open-mindedness - chaotic, confused vulnerabilty to inform yourself. Think for yourself. Question authority."

Unbekanntes Wissen über Learys: Er war mit der Mutter von Uma Thurmann verheiratet und ist Taufpate von Winona Ryder.

Jo Ito schreibt anlässlich des Termins über sein Treffen mit Leary.
