“If you sneer at religion as the opiate of the masses, you must sneer also at the brain, because the receptors are there. You must sneer at the body, which knows how to feel that bliss.

― Patricia Lockwood, Priestdaddy

“The joy of riding a motorcycle is out of this world. The thrill of riding in the hills and mountains is opiate addiction.”
