“The Christian Bible is a drug store. It´s contents have remained the same but the medical practice continues. For 1,800 years these changes were slight--scarcely noticeable... The dull and ignorant physician day and night, and all the days and all the nights, drenched his patient with vast and hideous doses of the most repulsive drugs to be found in the store´s stock. He kept him religion sick for eighteen centuries, and allowed him not a well day during all that time.” YearsWellsChristianNightFoundPracticeCenturyDrugSickPatientStoresMedicalIgnorantDullPhysiciansDay And NightEighteenHideousDose Author:Mark Twain
“I want the state to take away people's guns. But I don't want the state to use methods against gun owners that I deplore when used against naughty children, sexual minorities, drug users, and unsightly drinkers. Since such reprehensible police practices are probably needed to make anti-gun laws effective, my proposal to ban all guns should probably be marked a failure before it is even tried.” PeopleWantShouldChildrenStatesUseLawUsedPracticeNeededDrugGunPoliceMethodMinoritiesOwnersUsersProposalBansNaughtyUsing MeDrinkersGun OwnersAnti GunGun Law Book:Crime and Punishment: A Radical Solution Source: Crime and Punishment: A Radical Solution
“We take drugs because we want to feel a sense of connection, and we seek God for the same reason. The search, no matter where it's directed - divine union or cocaine - begins with pain that comes from believing you're separate from love. The key is using spiritual practice to turn inward, toward awareness, which is what we actually are.” WantFeelsBelieveMatterReasonPainSpiritualTurnsPracticeAwarenessDivineKeysDrugConnectionsUnionsInwardCocaineSpiritual Practice Author:Angel Grant
