Drug Addict Quotes - Page 6

• Individual freedom and drug laws contradict each other. In a genuinely free society, people are free to ingest whatever they want to ingest, no matter how harmful or destructive. What people ingest is none of the government's business. If drug users or drug addicts wish to get help, a free society provides the means to do so.

• People say what distinguishes us from the animals is that we think. Well, then why the hell don't we extend some compassion to those under tremendous duress?

But what about enjoying yourself by getting into the whole melee of poverty and racism and violence and murder and drug addiction? Get in there, roll up your sleeves, and do something! Nobody does it.

• "What is normal?" really becomes the question. What is normal, and how are we fooled into thinking it's something other than what we're doing at any given time.
