No one will deny that the excessive use of alcohol and alcoholic beverages would do more than any other single factor to make impossible a total war effort.
The man that isn't jolly after drinking is just a drivelling idiot, to my thinking.
When you're thirty-five, you can't take as much booze ... and I always got a little violent on drink...So it was kind of self-destructive suicide side of me, which is resolving itself for the better, I believe, because I never enjoyed it.
I was getting depressed, I was going out, having a few drinks and the worst thing you can do with depression is add alcohol to it.
I got drunk when I was five. Everybody gets drunk before they're 21.
Sometimes too much to drink is barely enough.
It is widely held that too much wine will dull a man's desire. Indeed it will in a dull man.
I used to think that drinking would help my shyness, but all it did was exaggerate all the negative qualities.
