I’m completely in favor of the separation of Church and State.
My idea is that these two institutions screw us up enough on their own, so both of them together is certain death.

“In moments of discouragement, defeat, or even despair, there are always certain things to cling to.

Little things usually: remembered laughter, the face of a sleeping child, a tree in the wind-in fact, any reminder of something deeply felt or dearly loved.

No man is so poor as not to have many of these small candles.
When they are lighted, darkness goes away-and a touch of wonder remains.”

Some birds aren’t meant to be caged.
Their feathers are just too bright.
And when they fly away, the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up does rejoice.

But still, the place you live in is that much more drab and empty that they’re gone.

I guess I just miss my friend.

I used to think that if I loved you enough,
you would realize it and love me back...
but I can only love so much, for so long.
And her heart was broken into a thousand pieces,
and upon each one was written his name.
There’s only so much heart in a girl to be broken
I want to be able to look at you and not be hurt by you

“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
“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?”

Here is my final point.
About drugs, about alcohol, about pornography and smoking and everything else.
What business is it of yours what I do, read, buy, see, say, think, who I fuck, what I take into my body – as long as I do not harm another human being on this planet?

Bill Hicks
If cannabis were unknown,and bioprospectors were suddenly to find it in some remote mountain crevice, its discovery would no doubt be hailed as a medical breakthrough. Scientists would praise its potential for treating everything from pain to cancer, and marvel at its pharmacopoeimamany.”

My choice is what I choose to do,
and if I’m causing no harm it shouldn’t bother you.
