"If you want a teacher, try a waterfall, or a mushroom, or a mountain wilderness, or a storm-pounded seashore. This is where the action is. It's not back in the hive. It's not in the anthill, it's not knocking your head against the floor in front somebody who claims that because of their lineage and whose feet they washed, that you should give credence to them".
(Terence Mckenna)
