Opiates

When you look back over a year on the junk, it seems like no time at all. Only the periods when you were sick stand out. You remember the first few shots of a habit and the shots when you were really sick.

Junk takes everything and gives nothing but insurance against junk sickness.

-- William S. Burroughs, "Junky"
