It’s hard to describe how cannabis makes you feel because… well, you know, man.

Sometimes, Hollywood says it best. We took a dive into the greatest high scenes in film to find quotes about cannabis that just get it. Take a scroll through these when you’re at a loss for words, or just want to feel better about that thing you said last time you were stoned.

1. From “Dazed and Confused” 1993

“Say man, you got a joint?” – David (Matthew McConaughey)

“Uhhh, no. Not on me man.” – Mitch (Wiley Wiggins)

“It’d be a lot cooler if you did.” – David (Matthew McConaughey)

It would be hard to say “no” to Matthew McConaughey.

2. From “Pineapple Express” (2008)

“Hands down the dopest dope I ever smoked.” – Saul (James Franco)

POV: James Franco as your budtender.

3. From “Dazed and Confused” (1993)… again

“Behind every good man there’s a woman, and that woman was Martha Washington, man, and everyday George would come home, she’d have a big fat bowl waiting for him.” – Slater (Rory Cochrane)

Apparently, there was a lot more going on at Mount Vernon than the history books told us.

4. From “Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle” (2004)

“Dude, am I really high, or is this actually working?” – Harold (John Cho)

“Both” – Kumar (Kal Penn)

A valid question when you find yourself riding a cheetah through New Jersey.

5. From “Cheech and Chong: Up in Smoke” (1978)

“Am I driving OK?” – Pedro (Cheech Marin)

“I think we’re parked, man.” – Man Stoner (Tommy Chong)

An homage to the friends who keep us grounded.

6. From “Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story” (2007)

[After Dewey accidentally barges in a room filled with cannabis smoke and groupies]

Sam (Tim Meadows): No, Dewey, you don’t want this. Get outta here!

Dewey Cox (John C. Reilly): You know what, I don’t want no hangover. I can’t get no hangover.

Sam : It doesn’t give you a hangover!

Dewey Cox : Wha-I get addicted to it or something?

Sam : It’s not habit-forming!

Dewey Cox : Oh, okay… well, I don’t know… I don’t want to overdose on it.

Sam : You can’t OD on it!

Dewey Cox : It’s not gonna make me wanna have sex, is it?

Sam : It makes sex even better!

Dewey Cox : Sounds kind of expensive.

Sam : It’s the cheapest drug there is.

Dewey Cox : [at a loss and out of excuses]  Hmm.

Sam : You don’t want it!

One of the best arguments for legalization to date.
