"being constantly sucked into eternity is extremely stressful. To be intoxicated is to be hard at work — grasping for your self against a backdrop of eternity"

"To complete an intoxicated act is to consciously resist worlds for the full duration of the act. This is the most exhausting task you have ever experienced."

"To make the decision to walk to a neighboring room can seem as drastic as the decision to commit suicide. You are so absorbed in the moment, that the possibility of future moments is utterly inconceivable to you"

"In the grips of intoxication, to look into the future is to see that you have no control over your own destiny. But yet the future keeps coming! ... Intoxication is bearable only because each moment is an eternity."

"While a man in a burning house saves the stapler on his desk, the intoxicated subject, in a similar state of frenzy, becomes absorbed in a toaster. The toaster offers the possibility of an eternity — a dream world protected from death."

"Marijuana calls out to you and says, “I can be your hammer! If you use me, I can shatter your social conditioning exposing your true self that exists beneath — the child before he was stolen away by the public."

"I always considered it to be a great irony that pot smokers are perceived as “lazy.” While intoxicated, I may be physically inactive, but I feel more active than ever; working hard at the mental projects that hide between the lines of sober thought"

"Marijuana was my secret weapon. I had the strong feeling that I had an advantage over those around me who are locked inside the cages of their scientific egos. It seemed that everyone else was playing silly language-games"
