The exact quote
Aug. 17th, 2003 03:25 pmFrom Glory Road, by Robert A. Heinlein:
"The truth is, I've got a monkey on my back, a habit worse than marijuana though not as expensive as heroin... The fact is I am a compulsive reader. I'll read the ads in an old Paris-Match that has been used to wrap herring before I'll do without."
Worse than marijuana, huh? I dunno, all the films from that era (1963) clearly show that one puff of Mary Jane turns you into a crazed serial killer.
