Louis Armstrong Quotes

"We did call ourselves vipers, which could have been anybody from all walks of life that smoked and respected gage. That was our cute little name for marijuana, and it was a misdemeanor in those days. Much different from the pressure and charges the law lays on a guy who smokes pot - a later name for the same thing. We always looked at pot as a sort of medicine, a cheap drunk and with much better thoughts than one that's full of liquor." - Louis Armstrong
