Sometimes all you need is some solid stoner quotes. The debate over marijuana might be the most heated in America right now.

Legalization of pot is on the rise so it should be less stigmatizing. That probably depends on what country you’re in. And, let’s face it: If you’re a pothead, you probably don’t mind the fun jokes made at your expense (there are definitely plenty of jokes). As for us, we’re pretty partial to the following quotes about weed and that stoner life.
