Drugs
Words are, of course,
the most powerful drug
used by mankind.
Rudyard Kipling
Why is there so much controversy about
drug testing? I know plenty of guys
who would be willing to test any
drug they could come up with
George Carlin
Annual drug deaths: tobacco: 395,000,
alcohol: 125,000, 'legal' drugs: 38,000,
illegal drug overdoses: 5,200, marijuana: 0.
Considering government subsidies of
tobacco, just what is our government
protecting us from in the drug war?
Ralph Nader
Of course drugs were fun. And that's
what's so stupid about anti-drug campaigns:
they don't admit that. I can't say I feel
particularly scarred or lessened by my
experimentation with drugs. They've
gotten a very bad name.
Anjelica Huston
Reality is a crutch for people
who can't cope with drugs.
Lily Tomlin/Robin Williams
Drugs are a waste of time. They
destroy your memory and your
self-respect and everything that goes
along with with your self esteem.
Kurt Cobain
There is only one reason why men
become addicted to drugs, they are
weak men. Only strong men are cured,
and they cure themselves.
Martin H. Fischer
Dope never helped anybody sing better
or play music better or do anything better.
All dope can do for you is kill you - and
kill you the long, slow, hard way.
Billie Holiday
Man seeks to escape himself in myth, and
does so by any means at his disposal. Drugs,
alcohol, or lies. Unable to withdraw into himself,
he disguises himself. Lies and inaccuracy
give him a few moments of comfort.
Jean Cocteau
No drug, not even alcohol, causes the
fundamental ills of society. If we're
looking for the sources of our troubles,
we shouldn't test people for drugs, we
should test them for stupidity, ignorance,
greed and love of power.
P. J. O'Rourke
I never took hallucinogenic
drugs because I never wanted
myconsciousness expanded
one unnecessary iota.
