Quotes about Soma

The world's stable now. People are happy; they get what they want, and they never want what they can't get. They're well off; they're safe; ignorant of passion and old age; they're plagued with no mothers or fathers; they've got no wives, or children, or lovers to feel strongly about; they're so conditioned that they practically can't help behaving as they ought to behave. And if anything should go wrong, there's soma.
