The good thing about poverty is it keeps you from getting in trouble because if you can't afford drugs, people will stop giving them to you very quickly. So, being poor really helps - it's the success that kills you.

More than anything, the weed really helped with my mental state, because marijuana works on the brain. And if anything, it soothes the brain.

Because the pot takes the edge off the adrenaline, and it also clears your mind of it, and then you can see things a lot clearer.

I smoke a little pot, every day, and I'm healthy as can be.

We have a team in Nevada that is looking for licensed cultivators to grow Chong's Choice. Hopefully recreational passes this year and we can go full force.

So (legalizing marijuana) means a lot more to me than just being able to smoke a joint without being arrested.

Marijuana at the time we were making movies [with Cheech Marine] was not that readily available and I do prefer to be coherent when I am working.
