"I was a heavy drinker, but the alcohol affected my heart rather than my liver. So I stopped. I smoke grass now. I say that to everybody, because marijuana should be legalized. It's ridiculous that it isn't. If at the end of the day I feel like smoking a joint I do it. It changes the perception of what I've been through all day."

(On the advisory board of NORML) Jennifer Aniston

William F. Buckley

but read what he had to say about prohibition in the 1983 issue of The anti-marijuana campaign is a cancerous tissue of lies, undermining law enforcement, aggravating the drug problem, depriving the sick of needed help and suckering well-intentioned conservatives and countless frightened parents." He's not a toker,read what he had to say about prohibition in the 1983 issue of The National Review : "." George W. Bush

In the taped recordings of a conversation, Bush explained his refusal to answer questions about whether he had used marijuana at some time in his past. “I wouldn’t answer the marijuana questions,” Bush says. “You know why? Because I don’t want some little kid doing what I tried.” When reminded that the latter had publicly denied using cocaine, Bush replied, "I haven't denied anything." Johnny Cash

"I do smoke, but I don't go through all this trouble just because I want to make my drug of choice legal. It's about personal freedom. We should have the right in this country to do what we want, if we don't hurt anybody. Seventy-two million people in this country have smoked pot. Eighteen to 20 million in the last year. These people should not be treated as criminals." Whitney Houston

"Whatever I'm already doing becomes enhanced when I smoke pot. It can also be demotivating, because if I'm not doing anything and I smoke a joint, it enhances just sitting in a chair.

John Lennon

Bill Maher

(On the advisory board of NORML) Norman Mailer

One's condition on marijuana is always existential. One can feel the importance of each moment and how it is changing one. One feels one's being, one becomes aware of the enormous apparatus of nothingness-the hum of a hi-fi set, the emptiness of a pointless interruption, one becomes aware of the war between each of us, how the nothingness in each of us seeks to attack the being of others, how our being in turn is attacked by the nothingness in others. Bob Marley

"Music and herb go together. It's been a long time now I smoke herb. From 1960s, when I first start singing." Linda McCartney

Linda made headlines as a result of an open fondness for marijuana. While being treated for breast cancer she smoked pot to ease the discomfort of chemotherapy. Sir Paul McCartney

"I think the 'Just say no' mentality is so crazed. I saw a thing in a women's magazine the other day. 'He smokes cannabis, what am I to do? He laughs it off when I try to tell him, he says it's not really harmful...' Of course you're half hoping the advice will be, 'Well, you know it's not that harmful; if you love him, if you talk to him about it, tell him maybe he should keep it in the garden shed or something,' you know, a reasonable point of view. But of course it was, 'No, no, all drugs are bad. Librium's good, Valium's good. But cannabis, ooooh!' I hate that unreasoned attitude." Matthew McConaughey

George Michael

"...this time last year I was a complete and utter pothead. I know it's lunacy but the horrible truth is that the grass really helped me. It got me through making [my album] Older. I was under more stress than I'd ever been. This [album] had to amount to something substantial to justify the wait. And grass really helped me with the lyrics. I'd know there was something I really wanted to say but I wouldn't know how to say it, so I'd have a few drags and stand behind the mike and in a few minutes it'd be there. It's bad because I don't want to smoke but I can't see myself giving grass up as a writer." source Robert Mitchum

"The only effect that I ever noticed from smoking marijuana was a sort of mild sedative, a release of tension when I was overworking. It never made me boisterous or quarrelsome. If anything, it calmed me and reduced my activity." Alanis Morissette

Neil Young

'On the Beach' is perhaps the most personal record Neil Young will ever make. Young has commented that this record was made mostly under the influence of "Honey Slides" - a marijuana and honey concoction described by Young onstage at his Bottom Line show in May 1974. "You take [poor grade marijuana] and cook it up on the stove...wait till the grass just starts to smoke...just heat that honey up until it's slippery, you know, and mix that grass with it...I think you should eat it after that...That cheap grass is great. You know, in these times, you have to think about prices and things like that. source
