A user (erm, that is to say a patron of the Library!) is starting to write something explaining how addiction works. He wants to start with a a literary quotation about addiction or addictive substances (coffee, alcohol, opium etc). Any suggestions?
Sherlock Holmes is an obvious choice, if there are any Holmesians out there. But are there other famous addictions in literature?
Yes, folks, it is Friday afternoon...
