Anthropologists have often described what happens to a primitive society when its spiritual values are exposed to the impact of modern civilisation. Its people lose the meaning of their lives, their social organisation disintegrates, and they themselves morally decay. We are now in the same condition.

Each succeeding pill is smaller, more carefully browned over the lamp and smoked with increasing pleasure. — Jack Black
