I lift my eyes and all is born again.”

“If you want to understand a society, take a good look at the drugs it uses. And what can this tell you about American culture? Well, look at the drugs we use.

― Bill Hicks

“Everybody, sooner or later, sits down to a banquet of consequences”
― Robert Louis Stevenson
