Weekend Wise Words

Be Smart! Be Brilliant!
Zack Galifianakis smoking pot on the Bill Maher Show
Because of the ignorance running rampant through our Government and the Obama Administration, I think we need to spread around rational truths.


“One's condition on marijuana is always existential. One can feel the importance of each moment and how it is changing one. One feels one's being, one becomes aware of the enormous apparatus of nothingness -- the hum of a hi-fi set, the emptiness of a pointless interruption, one becomes aware of the war between each of us, how the nothingness in each of us seeks to attack the being of others, how our being in turn is attacked by the nothingness in others.”
Norman Mailer

“I think people need to be educated to the fact that marijuana is not a drug. Marijuana is an herb and a flower. God put it here. If He put it here and He wants it to grow, what gives the government the right to say that God is wrong?”
Willie Nelson

“Why is marijuana against the law? It grows naturally upon our planet. Doesn't the idea of making nature against the law seem to you a bit . . . unnatural?”
Bill Hicks

“Marijuana is self-punishing. It makes you acutely sensitive, and in this world, what worse punishment could there be?”
P. J. O'Rourke

“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.”
William F. Buckley, Jr

“Whenever the people are for gay marriage or medical marijuana or assisted suicide, suddenly the "will of the people" goes out the window.”
Bill Maher

“Researches tested a new form of medical marijuana that treats pain but doesn't get the user high, prompting patients who need medical marijuana to declare, "Thank you?"”
Jimmy Fallon [This is a good point, why in the world is the government so fearful of allowing people to feel good?]

“If adults want to take such chances (with marijuana) that is their business”
Ronald Reagan

“Marijuana is the finest anti-nausea medication known to science, and our leaders have lied about this consistently. [Arresting people for] medical marijuana is the most hideous example of government interference in the private lives of individuals. It's an outrage within an outrage within an outrage.”
Peter McWilliams
