When even one American - who has done nothing wrong - is forced by fear to shut his mind and close his mouth - then all Americans are in peril. ~ Harry S. Truman
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Harry S. Truman
The amount of money and of legal energy being given to prosecute hundreds of thousands of Americans who are caught with a few ounces of marijuana in their jeans simply makes no sense - the kindest way to put it. A sterner way to put it is that it is an outrage, an imposition on basic civil liberties and on the reasonable expenditure of social energy. ~ William F. Buckley, Jr.
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by William F. Buckley, Jr.
The major basis for my opposition to marijuana prohibition has not been how badly it's worked, the fact that it's produced much more harm than good - it has been primarily a moral reason: I don't think the state has any more right to tell me what to put into my mouth than it has to tell me what can come out of my mouth. ~ Milton Friedman
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Milton Friedman
Marijuana is taken by musicians. And I'm not speaking about good musicians, but the jazz type ... ~ Harry J. Anslinger
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Harry J. Anslinger
Just as the process of repealing national alcohol prohibition began with individual states repealing their own prohibition laws, so individual states must now take the initiative with respect to repealing marijuana prohibition laws. ~ George Soros
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by George Soros
Marijuana prohibition is just the stupidest law possible ... Jus t legalize it and tax it like we do liquor. ~ Morgan Freeman
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Morgan Freeman
I don't know what my assistant would do besides get me pot. ~ Zach Galifianakis
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Zach Galifianakis
The snakes are always against the prohibition of the poisons; and the arms traders, of the arms! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
I do some of my best thinking while pulling weeds. ~ Martha Smith
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Martha Smith
People have forgotten the effects of prohibition. We have become the United Statesof Amnesia. ~ Gore Vidal
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Gore Vidal
Those faces on Main Street shaded by wide straw hats are surrounded in my child-memory by hardware and ploughs, seed bags and bales of cotton, the smell of guano and mule lots, hot sun on sidewalks and lovely white ladies with sweet childlike voices and smooth childlike faces, and Old gardens of boxwood and camellias, and fields endlessly curving around my small world. I know now that the bitterness, the cruel sensual lips, the quick fears in hard eyes, the sashshaying buttocks of brown girls, the thin childish voices of white women, had a great deal to do with high interest at the bank and low wages in the mills and gullied fields and lynchings and Ku Klux Klan and segregation and sacred womanhood and revivals, and Prohibition. And that no part of this memory can be understood without recalling it all of it. ~ Lillian Smith
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Lillian Smith
The Compromise of 1850 provided that the prohibition of slavery should be left up to the individual States, thus thwarting the Canaanites in their attempts to make this problem an excuse for federal intervention and a cause of war between the States. ~ Eustace Mullins
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Eustace Mullins
Marijuana legalization's income may help fund education, prevention and treatment programs for harder drugs. What's clear is that the four-decade-old U.S.-backed war on drugs is not working, and that it's producing tens of thousands of dead across the hemisphere, without significant gains in reducing consumption. Experimenting with new weapons to weaken the cartels may be better than doing nothing. ~ Andres Oppenheimer
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Andres Oppenheimer
As for drugs - well, Gates was certainly not unusual there. Marijuana was the pharmaceutical of choice ... ~ Bill Gates
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Bill Gates
Pharmaceutical and recreational drugs. Commonly prescribed antidepressants, muscle relaxants, pain killers and anti-anxiety and anti-inflammatory drugs can deaden the body's ability to communicate with itself. Recreational drugs such as alcohol and marijuana have a similar effect. In addition to medicinal effects, these drugs and others provide a chemical means to avoid and inhibit feelings, sensation ~ Jonathan Tripodi
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Jonathan Tripodi
Pot is a better drug than alcohol. I'll prove it to you. You're at a ball game or a concert, and someone's really violent and agressive and obnoxious, are they drunk or are they smoking pot? ~ Bill Hicks
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Bill Hicks
I smoked pot in college and in the Army ... ~ Al Gore
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Al Gore
If organized religion is the opium of the masses, then disorganized religion is the marijuana of the lunatic fringe. ~ Kerry Thornley
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Kerry Thornley
In the "Personal Story" segment tonight, the state of Oregon is extremely liberal in its state government and judicial system.That state has lenient drug laws, including wide access to medical marijuana. ~ Bill O'Reilly
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Bill O'Reilly
People of faith should not invoke the power of the state to decide what everyone can believe or think or read or do. In such cases, like abortion or prayer or prohibition or sexual identity, the proper role of religion is to appeal to the free conscience of each person, not the coercive rule of secular law. ~ Edward Kennedy
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Edward Kennedy
We have to be very conscious of the fact that beneath every illness is a prohibition. A prohibition that comes from a superstition. ~ Alejandro Jodorowsky
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Alejandro Jodorowsky
-in almost all stories of promises and prohibitions, the promises and prohibitions carry with them the inevitability of failure, of their own breaking. ~ A.S. Byatt
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by A.S. Byatt
I used to smoke marijuana, but that was when I was in college,
before it was a drug. ~ Dan Quayle
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Dan Quayle
It seems The Journal of Neurology reports that the longer you smoke, the less likely you are to develop Parkinson's disease. So what are they telling us? Follow me guys. Remember, a couple of months ago, doctors said drinking a glass of alcohol every day was good for your heart. Smoking prevents Parkinson's disease. Marijuana is good for glaucoma. Sex is good for your prostate. You know, screw health care. Let's party! ~ Jay Leno
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Jay Leno
I'm more proud of quitting smoking than of anything else I've done in my life, including winning an Oscar. ~ Christine Lahti
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Christine Lahti
Weed, you know, you just get mellow. You can drive pretty stoned and be OK. I mean, sometimes you get too stoned and you can't drive. But you could get pretty stoned and still drive. ~ Jason Mewes
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Jason Mewes
The tattoo on her left forearm. Five digits encoding nothing but the unspoken prohibition on my asking her about them. The jaunty 7 with its continental slash. ~ Michael Chabon
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Michael Chabon
By regulating marijuana, we can put black market drug dealers out of business and eliminate the rebellious allure that attracts young people. ~ Sal Albanese
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Sal Albanese
I usually wake up far after breakfast. So I have no other choice but to go straight to dinner. ~ Marilyn Manson
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Marilyn Manson
Calm down. It amounts to nothing. Calm down. And that taxi driver was right, I wasn't supposed to park there, I was wrong. It was simply the wrong place, for me, too, for what I wanted to do, regardless of the prohibition: it was too whatever. ~ Michael F. Moore
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Michael F. Moore
Of course I know how to roll a joint. ~ Martha Stewart
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Martha Stewart
Whenever the offence inspires less horror than the punishment, the rigour of penal law is obliged to give way to the common feelings of mankind. ~ Edward Gibbon
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Edward Gibbon
He died at forty-two.

I was there to collect his talent.

I was there at the hospital deathbed of my beloved Billie Holiday, just forty-four, her liver destroyed by drinking; I was there inside the hotel room of Charlie Parker, my singular jazz saxophonist, who died in his midthirties, but whose body was so ravaged by drugs the coroners thought he was sixty.

Tommy Dorsey, the bandleader, choked in his sleep when he was fifty-one, too deep in pills to awaken. Johnny Allen Hendrix (you called him Jimi) swallowed a handful of barbiturates and expired. He was twenty-seven.

It is not new, this idea that a purer art awaits you in a substance. But it is naive. I existed before the first grapes were fermented. Before the first whiskey was distilled. Be it opium or absinthe, marijuana or heroin, cocaine or ecstasy or whatever will follow, you may alter your state, but you will not alter this truth: I am Music. I am here inside you. Why would I hide behind a powder or a vapor?

Do you think me so petty? ~ Mitch Albom
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Mitch Albom
British diplomats and Anglo-American types in Washington have a near-superstitious prohibition on uttering the words 'Special Relationship' to describe relations between Britain and America, lest the specialness itself vanish like a phantom at cock-crow. ~ Christopher Hitchens
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Christopher Hitchens
People who smoke would have probably been regarded as fools or insane, if only a percentage of people who smoke smoked. ~ Mokokoma Mokhonoana
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Mokokoma Mokhonoana
For anybody who suspects that we need to reform the drug laws, there is an easier argument to make, and a harder argument to make. The easier argument is to say that we all agree drugs are bad - it's just that drug prohibition is even worse. ~ Johann Hari
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Johann Hari
The congress of the United States possesses no power to regulate, or interfere with the domestic concerns, or police of any state: it belongs not to them to establish any rules respecting the rights of property; nor will the constitution permit any prohibition of arms to the people. ~ St. George Tucker
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by St. George Tucker
Well, I decided to stop. And I did. I stopped smoking, and I stopped speed at the same time. ~ Larry Hagman
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Larry Hagman
Bring the brothers home, and sisters home now. Legalize marijuana and take all that money and invest it in teachers and in education. You will see a transformation in America. ~ Carlos Santana
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Carlos Santana
We never can create a public sentiment strong enough to suppress the dram-shops until God's people take hold of the temperance reform as a part of their religion. ~ Theodore L. Cuyler
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by Theodore L. Cuyler
Regardless of what one's attitude towards prohibition may be, temperance is something against which, at a time of war, no reasonable protest can be made. ~ William Lyon Mackenzie King
Marijuana Prohibition quotes by William Lyon Mackenzie King
