The last person I got weed off in Japan was Dave Mustaine from Megadeth, and I don't think he's gonna be there.

I tried heroin just the once. Even then, I didn't realize I'd taken it. I was just handed something, smoked it, then found out what it was. It didn't do anything for me, which was lucky because I wouldn't have fancied heading down that road.

Herb is the healing of a nation, alcohol is the destruction.

Some of the best times in my life happened under the influence of drugs... I'd still be doing it if I could make good judgement calls. I'd still be doing it if I didn't blow up to the size of an aircraft hangar, because it was a great time.

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.

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