Talk:Albert Hofmann

Cannot Find a Quote's Origin

I was reading Langlitz's (2013) 'Neuropsychedelia,' and found this quote on pages 25-26:

"Hofmann was presented with an enormous bunch of red roses. He expressed his thanks by saying that he was particularly grateful for the flowers, as our connectedness with other life forms, including plants, had become more and more important to him in recent years:

'The feeling of co-creatureliness with all things alive should enter our consciousness more fully and counterbalance the materialistic and nonsensical technological development in order to enable us to return to the roses, to the flowers, to nature, where we belong.'

Tumultuous applause again."

I cannot find a source for this quote in the book. It does not appear to be from 'LSD: My Problem Child,' and this quote was also in Pollan's 'How to Change Your Mind' (2018).

Can anyone help me find the source? I think I might ask Langlitz on Twitter. Halle42 (talk) 20:48, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
