Michael Pollan Quotes

Immersed This Spring In Research For This Chapter, I Was Sorely Tempted To Plant One Of The Hybrid Cannabis Seeds I'd Seen For Sale In Amsterdam. I Immediately Thought Better Of It, However. So I Planted Lots Of Opium Poppies Instead. I Hasten To Add That I've No Plans To Do Anything With My Poppies Except Admire Them - First Their Fleeting Tissue-paper Blooms, Then Their Swelling Blue-green Seedpods, Fat With Milky Alkaloid. (Unless, Of Course, Simply Walking Among The Poppies Is Enough To Have An Effect, As It Was For Dorothy In Oz.)
