“this door slammed on my fingers causing temporary misperceptionthis was neither heaven nor neither hell but presumption”
“The Doors got their name from William Blake's The Marriage of Heaven and Hell: PLATE 14The ancient tradition that the world will be consumed in fireat the end of six thousand years is true. as I have heard fromHell.For the cherub with his flaming sword is hereby commanded toleave his guard at the tree of life, and when he does, the wholecreation will be consumed, and appear infinite. and holy whereasit now appears finite & corrupt.This will come to pass by an improvement of sensual enjoyment.But first the notion that man has a body distinct from hissoul, is to be expunged; this I shall do, by printing in theinfernal method, by corrosives, which in Hell are salutary andmedicinal, melting apparent surfaces away, and displaying theinfinite which was hid.If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing wouldappear to man as it is: infinite.For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro'narrow chinks of his cavern.”
“A scientist among US!? Someone says that THE DOORS (Jim Morrison, maybe?) gets its name from this Book.”
