"The war on drugs has nothing at all to do with drugs. It is part of an all-out war on the American people by a government interested only in control."
"While the Bushites have been eagerly preparing for the last war but two - missiles from North Korea, clearly marked with flags, would rain down on Portland, Oregon, only to be intercepted by our missile-shield balloons - the foxy Osama bin Laden knew that all he needed for his holy war on the infidel was a few flyers willing to kill themselves along with those passengers who happened to be aboard the hijacked airliners. Also, like so many of those born to wealth, Bin Laden is not one to throw money about. Apparently, the airline tickets of the known dead hijackers were paid for by credit card. I suspect that United and American Airlines will never be reimbursed by American Express, whose New York offices Bin Laden - inadvertently? - hit."
"I write about controversial shit, but at the end of the day, creativity is the fucking drug, man—it's what downtown and our circle of friends is all about!"
"To learn and not think over what you have learned is perfectly useless. To think without having learned is dangerous."
"Young people are more hopeful at a certain age than adults, but I suspect that's glandular. As for children, I keep as far from them as possible. I don't like the sight of them. The scale is all wrong. The heads tend to be too big for the bodies, and the hands and feet are a disaster. They keep falling into things. The nakedness of their bad character! We adults have learned how to disguise our terrible character, but children, well, they are like grotesque drawings of us. They should be neither seen nor heard, and no one must make another one."
"Even if the drugs don't kill me, it's been a slow bludgeoning of my spirit, my health, my psychological well-being, and my ability to cope with anything. This is not sustainable."
