I need mushroom quotes

Hey there,
I am making a mushroom legislation tshirt for a small clothing company I'd like to start and a few for my friends, and wanted to ask for some famous mushroom politics & law quotes anyone knows.
Ex: "Mushroom laws are not constitutional" - some florida judge ?This drug is not associated with physical or psychological dependency, acute toxicity is largely limited to possible panic and anxiety attacks and, in terms of chronic toxicity, the worst that can happen are flashbacks. Consequently, the use of paddos (hallucinogenic mushrooms) does not, on balance, present any risk to the health of the individual.? -Coordination of assesment of new drugs
Any quote though, law related or not is welcome.
Thanks

Look into some Bill Hicks and Terence McKenna. Both of them have mushroom quotes which would be more than appropiate for a t-shirt.
We have wandered into a state of prolonged neurosis because of the absence of a direct pipeline to the unconscious and we have then fallen victim to priestcraft of every conceivable sort. Terence McKenna

Okay this isn't quite what you're looking for but I have a few interesting Terence McKenna quotes, some relating to mushrooms. Many are at least mushroom-inspired:
"A woman on the upper east side of New York or in Malibu..has a child. That child will have between eight hundred and a thousand times more negative impact on the environment of the Earth than a child born to a woman in Bangledesh. Where do we preach birth control? Bangledesh."
"Animals are something invented by plants to move seeds around. An extremely yang solution to a peculiar problem which they faced."
"It's only in western civilization that you get this steady focus on this monotheistic ideal, and working out the implications of what is essentially a pathologial personality pattern. The pattern of the omnicient, omnipresent, all-knowing, wrathful male diety. No one you would invite to your garden party."
"The apocalypse is not something which is coming. The apocalypse has arrived in major portions of the planet and it's only because we live within a bubble of incredible privilege and social insulation that we still have the luxury of anticipating the apocalypse. If you go to Bosnia or Somalia or Peru or much of the third-world then it appears that the apocalypse has already arrived."
"We have wandered into a state of prolonged neurosis because of the absence of a direct pipeline to the unconscious and we have then fallen victim to priestcraft of every conceivable sort."
These at least relate to law, though aren't specific to the mushroom:
"If the words 'life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness' don't include the right to experiment with your own consciousness, then the Declaration of Independence isn't worth the hemp it was written on."
"Let us declare nature to be legitimate. All plants should be declared legal, and all animals for that matter. The notion of illegal plants and animals is obnoxious and ridiculous."

Here's some Tim Leary quotes about his first mushroom experience in Mexico.........
Quote:
""On a sunny afternoon in the garden of a Cuernavaca villa, I ate several of the so-called sacred mushrooms. ... During the next five hours, I was whirled through an experience which could be described in many extravagant metaphors but was, above all and without question, the deepest religious experience of my life."
"I gave way to delight, as mystics have for centuries," he recalled, "when they peeked through the curtains and discovered that this world--so manifestly real--was actually a tiny stage set constructed by the mind."
"It was the classic visionary voyage and I came back a changed man," he wrote of this first trip several years later. "You are never the same after you've had that one flash glimpse down the cellular time tunnel. You are never the same after you've had the veil drawn."
"I stumbled on the scene in a most holy manner. Spent last summer in Mexico. Anthropologist friend arrived one weekend with a bag of mushrooms. Magic mushrooms. I had never heard of them, but being a good host joined the crowd who ate them. Wow! Learned more in six hours than in the past sixteen years. Visual transformations. Gone the perceptual machinery which clutters up our view of reality. Intuitive transformations. Gone the mental machinery which slices the world up into abstractions and concepts. Emotional transformations. Gone the emotional machinery that causes us to load life with our own role-ambitions and petty desires. "

Ok, here's the WIP for the front of the shirt, the quote is from Maria SabinA, a curandera from Mexico. I'll be working on the back and revising the front, for the most part though, the design is mostly complete:
