Drugs Quotes
	Franklin P. Adams	Prohibition is an awful flop.  We like it.  It can't stop what it's meant to stop.  We like it.  It's left a trail of graft and slime, It don't prohibit worth a dime,  It's filled our land with vice and crime.  Nevertheless, we're for it.
	Aesop	Vices are their own punishment.
	Harry J. Anslinger	Reefer makes darkies think they're as good as white men.
	Harry J. Anslinger	There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US, and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz and swing, result from marijuana usage. This marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers and any others.
	Harry J. Anslinger	You smoke a joint and you're likely to kill your brother.
	Harry J. Anslinger	...the primary reason to outlaw marijuana is its effect on the degenerate races.
	Harry J. Anslinger	Marihuana leads to pacifism and communist brainwashing.
	Harry J. Anslinger	Marijuana is an addictive drug which produces in its users insanity, criminality, and death.
	Harry J. Anslinger	Marijuana is the most violence-causing drug in the history of mankind.
	Saint Augustine	Near our vineyard there was a pear tree laden with fruit that was not attractive in either flavor or form. One night, when I [at the age of sixteen] had played until dark on the sandlot with some other juvenile delinquents, we went to shake that tree and carry off its fruit. From it we carried off huge loads, not to feast on, but to throw to the pigs, although we did eat a few ourselves. We did it just because it was forbidden.
	Tallulah Bankhead	Cocaine habit forming? Of course not. I ought to know, I've been using it for years.
	Tallulah Bankhead	I'm a foe of moderation, the champion of excess. If I may lift a line from a die-hard whose identity is lost in the shuffle, "I'd rather be strongly wrong than weakly right.
	Dr. Jorge Batlle	Why don’t we just legalize drugs? ... The day that it is legalized in the United States, it will lose value. And if it loses value, there will be no profit. But as long as the U.S. citizenry doesn’t rise up to do something, they will pass this life fighting and fighting.
	Dan Baum	The country's first drug ban explicitly targeted the opium of "the heathen Chinee." Cocaine was first banned in the south to prevent an uprising of hopped-up "cocainized Negroes.
	Dan Baum	It's gotten to where defense attorneys in federal drug cases can do their clients about as much good as Dr. Kevorkian can do his -- quietly shepherd them through to the least painful end.
	John Biggs Jr.	Let us revise our views and work from the premise that all laws should be for the welfare of society as a whole and not directed at the punishment of sins.
	Alan Bloom	Freedom of the mind requires not only, or not even especially, the absence of legal constraints but the presence of alternative thoughts. The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity, but the one that removes awareness of other possibilities.
	Justice Louis D. Brandeis	It is one of the happy incidents of the federal system, that a single courageous state may, if its citizens choose, serve as a laboratory; and try novel social and economic experiments without risk to the rest of the country.
	Harry Browne	If the Fed had a war on abortion like its war on poverty or war on drugs, within 5 years men would be having abortions!
	Harry Browne	There are no violent gangs fighting over aspirin territories. There are no violent gangs fighting over whisky territories or computer territories or anything else that's legal. There are only criminal gangs fighting over territories covering drugs, gambling, prostitution, and other victimless crimes. Making a non-violent activity a crime creates a black market, which attracts criminals and gangs, which turns what was once a relatively harmless activity affecting a small group of people into a widespread epidemic of drug use and gang warfare.
	William F. Buckley, Jr.	Now it is one thing to say (I say it) that people shouldn’t consume psychoactive drugs. It is entirely something else to condone marijuana laws, the application of which resulted, in 1995, in the arrest of 588,963 Americans. Why are we so afraid to inform ourselves on the question?
	William F. Buckley, Jr.	Marijuana never kicks down your door in the middle of the night. Marijuana never locks up sick and dying people, does not suppress medical research, does not peek in bedroom windows. Even if one takes every reefer madness allegation of the prohibitionists at face value, marijuana prohibition has done far more harm to far more people than marijuana ever could.
