I can take pot or leave it. I got busted in Japan for it. I was nine days without it and there wasn't a hint of withdrawal, nothing.

Drugs are a bet with your mind.

Two great European narcotics, alcohol and Christianity.

The trick is to use the drugs once to get there, and maybe spend the next ten years trying to get back there without the drug.

I think it's too bad that everybody's decided to turn on drugs, I don't think drugs are the problem. Crime is the problem. Cops are the problem. Money's the problem. But drugs are just drugs.

This virtual reality stuff is the technological equivalent, really, of psychedelics.
