Luckily There’s LSD

This is just too good of a quotation not to share. Coming out of the mouth of one of the characters Brandon Stanton photographed for his Humans of New York project. Here it is:

 Young children are in direct contact with reality. They experience the world through their senses. But as people grow older, we start thinking too much, and we form an ‘idea of reality.’ We lose contact with reality itself, because reality isn’t an idea…it’s reality. Luckily there’s LSD.
