Drug Craving

Famous quotes containing the words drug and/or craving:

    “If an addict who has been completely cured starts smoking again he no longer experiences the discomfort of his first addiction. There exists, therefore, outside alkaloids and habit, a sense for opium, an intangible habit which lives on, despite the recasting of the organism.... The dead drug leaves a ghost behind. At certain hours it haunts the house.”
    —Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)

    “Men are but children of a larger growth,
    Our appetites as apt to change as theirs,
    And full as craving too, and full as vain.”
    —John Dryden (1631–1700)
