It seems madness to say, 'we're worried that they're going to become addicted to marijuana' -- there's no evidence whatever that it's an addictive drug, but even if it were, these people are dying, what are we saving them from?

Marijuana People Drug

More From Carl Sagan

As a physician i have sympathy for patients suffering from pain and other medical conditions. although i understand many believe marijuana is the most effective drug in combating their medical ailments, i would caution against this assumption due to the lack of consistent, repeatable scientific data available to prove marijuana's benefits. based on current evidence, i believe that marijuana is a dangerous drug and that there are less dangerous medicines offering the same relief from pain and other medical symptoms.

I'll get rid of the drug problem. the first drug dealer will be publicly executed in front of everybody and all of the sudden the rest of the drug dealers are going to go "uh oh!" watch how fast the drug problem disappears. if you use drugs, you're addicted and you steal something, you'll get sent off to the outback and to work camps and all of the sudden no drug addicts. see how simple that is? so simple.

I got addicted. news, particularly daily news, is more addictive than crack cocaine, more addictive than heroin, more addictive than cigarettes.

I bet you're worried. i was worried. i was worried about vaginas. i was worried about what we think about vaginas, and even more worried that we don't think about them.

You start doing the addictive behavior to feel good and then your receptors get overloaded with dopamine, then you stop doing the addictive thing and some of the receptors have shut down and you don't have enough dopamine to feel good. so then you feel bad and go back to the addictive behavior to get more dopamine. the strange thing is that it works with what we think of as uppers and downers and whatever you call gambling - sidewaysers.

I'm addicted to laughing. i go to see a lot of comedy shows. i'm addicted to playing really loud and obnoxious rock music in my car. i'm addicted to beautiful clothes and shoes. i just love gorgeous stuff and work hard to acquire pretty things, shiny things. i'm addicted to shiny things!
