Once you're a felon you're a target.

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.

When you hit a groove, it's not you; it's the spirit world. The spirits whisper the ideas in your brain and prod you along. They're the ones that are really happy.

I do have a plan for the country [the USA]. It needs education. And there should be drug education - only people should be taught how to smoke pot, because even potheads don't know how to smoke pot. I've evolved into not only an activist, but an educator. I want to show people how, when, and why they should smoke pot.

Our tour is winding down and I was just thinking about what I want to do. I like growing so I think I might start growing again. As a medical marijuana patient, under California law I am licensed to grow 12 plants.

You can smoke marijuana, you can eat it, you can wear it, it's a perfect plant!
