Cocaine Quotes - Page 10

• I also had my own addiction to cocaine and heroin in my 20s. I knew that it was driven not by the things that the drug workers were telling me; in fact, I couldn't believe any drug information that was given to me by authorities because I knew from my own experience that it was wrong.

• Woe to you, my Princess, when I come. I will kiss you quite red and feed you till you are plump. And if you are froward, you shall see who is the stronger, a gentle little girl who doesn't eat enough, or a big wild man who has cocaine in his body. -- A love letter from Freud to his fiancée.

• Beber demasiado, comer demasiado azúcar, fumar demasiada marihuana, consumir demasiada cocaína o incluso beber demasiada agua tiene un precio. Todas esas cosas pueden estropearte, especialmente beber demasiada agua de Los Ángeles... o de Love Canal. Pero, si la gente tuviera una mejor idea de lo que es realmente la moderación, entonces algunos de estos problemas ... Si usted usa demasiado de algo, su cuerpo sólo va a ir el "¿Eh? ... Duh!"

• El crack a principios de los 80 o mediados de los 80, lo siento, es uno de los peores mitos, es que una dosis y eres adicto de por vida. Lo vimos en los 80 y lo estamos viendo de nuevo con la metanfetamina hoy en día, un golpe y eres adicto y simplemente no es cierto, la adicción requiere trabajo no la gente debe salir y experimentar o hacer esto por sí mismos, pero el hecho es que eso es un mito y la preocupación es que, es peligroso porque cuando la gente perpetúa que los mitos y luego, cuando los jóvenes son las personas que realmente tratan de metanfetamina o cocaína crack y encontrar que, eso no les sucede.

• The policy that received more attention particularly in the past decade and a half or so has been the US cocaine policy, the differential treatment of crack versus powder cocaine and question is how my research impacted my view on policy. Clearly that policy is not based on the weight of the scientific evidence. That is when the policy was implemented, the concern about crack cocaine was so great that something had to be done and congress acted in the only way they knew how, they passed policy and that's what a responsible society should do.

• In my 20s I was so ignorant about drugs, and so naive. I mean, my band was smoking marijuana for years; I didn't even know what a joint was. And I'd never seen a line of cocaine in my life. And I don't know whether it was bravado or - OK, I'll join in. But my stupidity, I had a line of coke, and that started the whole process.

• I always just wanted to have the wherewithal to make another record. I never really dreamt of fortune or fame, because it seemed so unlikely. I'm much more interested in people's perceptions of me than what my life is really like. It appears that some people think it's all cocaine and caviar for Okkervil River. And it's not. I'm making a little bit more than I was making at the video store right now.

• My personal story is that my father was a heroin addict and a heroin dealer and has been in and out of prison my entire life, he's been arrested sixty times. I also have an older brother addicted to crack cocaine who's been in and out of prison so it was really important for me to tell a story that shows the humanity and the journey of a man getting of our prison and trying to re-acclimate into society. It's apart of our community that we have stereotypes and ideas about but we don't actually know much about it, unless we know someone personally.

• Whereas story is processed in the mind in a straightforward manner, poetry bypasses rational thought and goes straight to the limbic system and lights it up like a brushfire. It's the crack cocaine of the literary world.

• There's a thing about cocaine - when I was doing it secretly, it didn't make me very sociable. I forget how others were, but it made me very inner-directed. So being in a sketch and rehearsing and the "hail fellow well met" camaraderie and all that stuff, I couldn't fake that or force that. It was painful.

• I was every Londoner's stereotypical idea of a brash, vulgar American. When I got here, it turned out that London was the Wild West, and New York was like London at the height of the Victorian era, in which everyone was far more obsessed with table manners and status-climbing than they are in London. In London, everyone was just crawling over this blizzard of cocaine. Here, if you have more than a glass of wine with your meal, people refer you to Alcoholics Anonymous.

• Suppose that the US really is trying to get rid of drugs in Colombia. Does Colombia then have the right to fumigate tobacco farms in Kentucky? They are producing a lethal substance far more dangerous than cocaine. More Colombians die from tobacco-related illnesses than Americans die from cocaine. Of course, Colombia has no right to do that.

• Gran parte de los primeros trabajos se centraron en la dopamina y lo que realmente buscábamos eran efectos gratificantes y, efectivamente, sólo encontramos eso. Pero se pueden destruir las principales estructuras cerebrales productoras de dopamina y conseguir que un animal se autoadministre drogas como la cocaína.

• For some reason, politically there's a distinction between cocaine and crack. Cocaine is not a felony conviction because it's used by middle class and wealthy people. Crack, which is used by people in South Central, carries a felony conviction.
