Marijuana is the finest anti-nausea medication known to science, and our leaders have lied about this consistently. [Arresting people for] medical marijuana is the most hideous example of government interference in the private lives of individuals. It's an outrage within an outrage within an outrage.
Peter McWilliams
A little wine sometimes, that's all. Spirits are bad. Alcohol wrong. Herb does grow.
Bob Marley
The drug is really quite a remarkably safe one for humans, although it is really quite a dangerous one for mice and they should not use it.
J.W.D Henderson
Why is marijuana against the law? It grows naturally upon our planet. Doesn't the idea of making nature against the law seem to you a bit . . . unnatural?
Bill Hicks
Researchers have discovered that chocolate produces some of the same reactions in the brain as marijuana. The researchers also discovered other similarities between the two but can't remember what they are.
Matt Lauer
I was addicted to marijuana. I would have to have a puff off a joint before every take. I'd run out to the bathroom and come back.
Dyan Cannon
Marijuana is like Coors beer. If you could buy the damn stuff at a Georgia filling station, you'd decide you wouldn't want it.
Billy Carter
Marijuana is a much bigger part of the American addiction problem than most people - teens or adults - realize.
John Walters
I now have absolute proof that smoking even one marijuana cigarette is equal in brain damage to being on Bikini Island during an H-bomb blast.
Ronald Reagan
Smoking's a way to let you down slowly from a ballgame. It also makes you use less of the resources around. It makes people better in the way they act towards society. Everybody's nicer. It's hard to be mean when you're stoned.
Bill Lee
Herb is the healing of a nation, alcohol is the destruction.
Bob Marley
When you smoke the herb, it reveals you to yourself.
Bob Marley
The War on Drugs has been an utter failure. We need to rethink and decriminalize our marijuana laws.
Barack Obama
Marijuana is self-punishing. It makes you acutely sensitive, and in this world, what worse punishment could there be?
P. J. O'Rourke
My generation, faced as it grew with a choice between religious belief and existential despair, chose marijuana. Now we are in our Cabernet stage.
