Revision as of 04:11, 14 November 2001 by 172.149.189.xxx (talk)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Timothy Leary (October 22 1920 - May 31 1996) American writer, psychologist, and drug campaigner. As a proponent of the drug LSD during the 1960s, he coined and popularized the catch phrase "Tune in, turn on, drop out."
Dr. Leary argued that LSD, used with the right dosage, set (what one brings to the experience) and setting, preferably with the guidance of professionals, could alter behaviour in unprecedented and beneficial ways. His experiments produced zero murders, zero suicides, zero psychoses, zero bad trips.
During his lifetime, Leary was the subject of the Moody Blues song Legend of a Mind, which memorialized him with the words, "Timothy Leary's dead. No, no, he's outside looking in."
