Famous quotes containing the words concomitant, drugs, drug and/or abuse:

    Each action of the actor on the stage should be the visible concomitant of his thoughts.
    Sarah Bernhardt (1845–1923)

    If we became students of Malcolm X, we would not have young black men out there killing each other like they’re killing each other now. Young black men would not be impregnating young black women at the rate going on now. We’d not have the drugs we have now, or the alcoholism.
    Spike Lee (b. 1956)

    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)

    But I’ve heard mankind abuse thee;
    And perhaps it’s rather strange,
    But I thought that I would choose thee
    For encomium, as a change.
    Charles Stuart Calverley (1831–1884)
