Sun Ra Speaks
"Those of the reality have lost their way. Now they must listen to what myth has to say. . .Somewhere else on the other side of nowhere, there's another place in space, beyond what you know as time. Where the gods of mythology dwell. . .These gods dwell in their mythocracy, opposed to your democracy, and your monocracy. They dwell in their mythocracy, a magic world that makes things to be. These gods can even offer you immortality.
"I'm paving the way for humanity to recognize the myth and become part of my mythocracy, instead of their theocracies and their democracies, and the other -ocracies they got, they can become of a magic myth, the magic touch of the mythocracy. . . And I'm sure that the myth can do more for humanity than anything they ever dreamed possible."
When a person begins to see and feel his insignificance then he can see his worth and worthlessness, and see that sometimes worthlessness and valuelessness and pricelessness are synonyms on another plane of understanding".
"What I'm doing is something that a lot of people have tried to do, but they have met defeat from humanity"
