"We have a right to eat, drink, or inject a substance--any substance--not because we are sick and want it to cure us, nor because a government supported medical authority claims it will be good for us, but simply because the government--as our servant rather than our master--hasn't the right to meddle in our private dietary and drug affairs." - Thomas Szasz
"Policies are judged by their consequences, but crusades are judged by how good they make the crusaders feel." - Thomas Sowell
"Penalties against drug use should not be more damaging to an individual than use of the drug itself. Nowhere is this more clear than in the laws against possession of marijuana in private for personal use." - Jimmy Carter, August 2, 1977
