Ray Kurzweil
“Everyone takes the limits of his own vision for the limits of the world. —ARTHUR SCHOPENHAUER”
Ray Kurzweil, The Singularity is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology

Alan W. Watts
“Every one of us is an aperture through which the whole cosmos looks out.”
Alan W. Watts

Terence McKenna
“Like the octopi, our destiny is to become what we think, to have our thoughts become our bodies and our bodies become our thoughts. This is the essence of the more perfect Logos envisioned by the Hellenistic polymath Philo Judaeus—a Logos, an indwelling of the Goddess, not heard but beheld. Hans Jonas explains Philo Judaeus's concept as follows:
A more perfect archetypal logos, exempt from the human duality of sign and thing, and therefore not bound by the forms of speech, would not require the mediation of hearing, but is immediately beheld by the mind as the truth of things.”
Terence McKenna, Food of the Gods: The Search for the Original Tree of Knowledge

Erik Pevernagie
“Wittgenstein likes to assert: "Whereof we cannot speak we must be silent". But skilfully using our hands and manipulating our thoughts can be plausible options to make ourselves understood. So, if we can’t say it, we can show and depict it. Whereof we cannot speak we can paint! ("Happy days are back again")”
Erik Pevernagie

Hermes Trismegistus
“As above, so below, as within, so without, as the universe, so the soul…”
