Terence McKenna – 161 Trialogue 1992 Utopia

“We have the concept of the ideal city in the ancient world, most especially the ideal
city of Plato’s Republic. So casually we might call that Utopian fantasy. Although
Plato did try to actually realize it in the political organization of a particular city. He
ended up in jail for that effort. Another thing to kind of keep in the back of your
mind as we choose whether or not to associate with this particular strand of the
human endeavor [utopianism].”–Ralph Abraham
