What is the original quotation? or whom?

I'm looking to find the original origins of this quote, so that I can quote it written and cite correctly! We know him as the introduction to the song "Halloween on Military Street" by my favorite band, The Insane Clown Posse. No But often quoted extract from various sources. I guess that is a possibility that they are the original writers of this, but I doubt it. "We measure things by what we are. For worms in cheese, cheese is the universe. For worms in the corpse, the corpse is the cosmos. So how can we be so sure of our own existence? The fact that our telescopes, microscopes, and splitting the atom? Of course not. Science is but an organized system of ignorance. There are more things in heaven and Earth then write about the philosophers. What we know about the afterlife? Do we know what's behind the beyond? I'm afraid some of us hardly know what is beyond back! "

"We measure things by what we are. To the maggots in the cheese, cheese is the universe. For worms in the corpse, the corpse is the cosmos. So how can we be so cock sure of our world? The fact that our telescopes, our microscopes, and splitting the atom? No! "Science is but an organized system of ignorance. There are more things in heaven and earth are dreamed of in your philosophy! What we know about beyond? Do we know what's behind the beyond? "I'm afraid some of us know what is beyond the Back. "Creatures of the twilight and illusion, are drifting toward our purposes unknown. And that is why I feel that best not to have been born. "But what is the fate that? Who did? No one of millions and millions of people" - AKA Brother Theodore Gottlieb Theodore
