Pick a colour... Blue... B-L-U-E... Pick a number... 8... 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8... Dream is destiny...
You know, I just woke from a dream. It wasn't like a typical dream, it seemed more like I'd walked into an alternate universe. Yep, it's real. I mean, technically it's a phenomenon of sleep, but you can have so much damn fun in your dreams. And of course, everyone knows fun rules. Yeah...
From the movie 'Waking Life'
Shpongle — ...But Nothing Is Lost
Nothing lasts, nothing lasts, everything is changing into something else. Nothing is wrong, nothing is wrong, everything is on track.
(...)
You know, William Blake said... uh, nothing is lost. Nothing is lost and I... I really believe that, we only move on...
Spoken words from Terence McKenna
Shpongle — Molecular Superstructure
I mean, we are like catapillers, contemplating pupation. No longer will I chew on the cabbage leaves, no longer will I spend my time moving around on the underside of the foliage! Life must be a preparation for the transition to another dimension...
Here we go! Climbing way up into the sky, and we'll see if this ride is really like flying.
