Notable quotes

“Marijuana can act as the loosening agent, so that whatever has been banned from consciousness may come cascading forth. To uncover our deceptions without our usual rationalizations can be unpleasant, an experience that has turned many psychologically fragile individuals away from marijuana despite its therapeutic catharsis.”
— Joan Bello, The Benefits of Marijuana: Physical, Psychological & Spiritual (2007), p. 50
“The Rastas, more than any other group, have elevated ganja to a central place in their religious practice and have developed a well-articulated ideology justifying its use and explaining its significance. ... Rastas regard the proscription of ganja use by Babylon's government as part of its strategy of social control.”
— Ennis Barrington Edmonds, Rastafari: From Outcasts to Culture Bearers (Oxford University Press: 2002), pp. 60-61
“I think that marijuana should not only be legal, I think it should be a cottage industry. It would be wonderful for the state of Maine. There's some pretty good homegrown dope. I'm sure it would be even better if you could grow it with fertilizers and have greenhouses.”
— Stephen King.
“A young boy called up and asked me if I preferred grass or astroturf … And I told him that I had never smoked astroturf. I guess that I shouldn’t have said that.”
— Tug McGraw, when asked if he preferred grass or artificial turf, (1974), as quoted in The Times of San Mateo, California (30 April 1974), and at The Quote Investigator
“Cannabis, just like morphine, has its usage in medicine. It's unpardonable that authorities forbid sick people access to this medicament and in majesty of law permit to sell cigarettes.”
— Jerzy Vetulani, Puls Medycyny, 2013
“When the stress burns my brain just like acid raindrops, Mary Jane is the only thing that makes the pain stop.”
— People Under the Stairs, "Acid Raindrops"
