Alcohol and alcoholism

Sometimes too much drink is barely enough.
- Twain, Mark
Alcohol and alcoholism Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Alcohol and alcoholism

1.
Alcohol is necessary for a man so that he can have a good opinion of himself, undisturbed be the facts.
Dunne, Finley Peter

2.
If all be true that I do think, there are five reasons we should drink: Good wine -- a friend -- or being dry -- or lest we should be by and by -- or any other reason why.
Aldrich, Henry

3.
I made a commitment to completely cut out drinking and anything that might hamper me from getting my mind and body together. And the floodgates of goodness have opened upon me-spiritually and financially.
Washington, Denzel

4.
I never drink water. I'm afraid it will become habit-forming.
Fields, W. C.

5.
No other human being, no woman, no poem or music, book or painting can replace alcohol in its power to give man the illusion of real creation.
Duras, Marguerite

6.
I'd hate to be a teetotaler. Imagine getting up in the morning and knowing that's as good as you're going to feel all day.
Martin, Dean

7.
The piano has been drinking, not me.
Waits, Tom

8.
Somebody left the cork out of my lunch.
Fields, W. C.

9.
It's a great advantage not to drink among hard-drinking people. You can hold your tongue and, moreover, you can time any little irregularity of your own so that everybody else is so blind that they don't see or care.

10.
If I remember right there are five excuses for drinking: the visit of a guest, present thirst, future thirst, the goodness of the wine, and any other excuse you choose!
Sermond, Pete

11.
I have been brought up and trained to have the utmost contempt for people who get drunk.
Churchill, Winston

12.
The Great Spirit, who made all things, made every thing for some use, and whatever use he designed anything for, that use it should always be put to. Now, when he made rum, he said Let this be for the Indians to get drunk with, and it must be so.
Native American Elder

13.
I don't drink any more than the man next to me, and the man next to me is Dean Martin.
Lewis, Joe E.

14.
When a woman drinks it's as if an animal were drinking, or a child. Alcoholism is scandalous in a woman, and a female alcoholic is rare, a serious matter. It's a slur on the divine in our nature.
Duras, Marguerite

15.
Alcohol is like love. The first kiss is magic, the second is intimate, the third is routine. After that you take the girl's clothes off.
Chandler, Raymond

16.
When I drink, I think; and when I think, I drink.
Rabelais, Francois

17.
Don't you drink? I notice you speak slightingly of the bottle. I have drunk since I was fifteen and few things have given me more pleasure. When you work hard all day with your head and know you must work again the next day what else can change your ideas and make them run on a different plane like whisky? When you are cold and wet what else can warm you? Before an attack who can say anything that gives you the momentary well-being that rum does? The only time it isn't good for you is when you write or when you fight. You have to do that cold. But it always helps my shooting. Modern life, too, is often a mechanical oppression and liquor is the only mechanical relief.
Hemingway, Ernest

18.
Prohibition may be a disputed theory, but none can say that it doesn't hold water.
Masson, Thomas L.

19.
Wine is a turncoat; first a friend and then an enemy.
Fielding, Henry

20.
Alcohol doesn't console, it doesn't fill up anyone's psychological gaps, all it replaces is the lack of God. It doesn't comfort man. On the contrary, it encourages him in his folly, it transports him to the supreme regions where he is master of his own destiny.
Duras, Marguerite

21.
A man is never drunk if he can lay on the floor without holding on.
Lewis, Joe E.

22.
No power on earth or above the bottomless pit has such influence to terrorize and make cowards of men as the liquor power. Satan could not have fallen on a more potent instrument with which to thrall the world. Alcohol is king!
Stewart, Eliza ''Mother''

23.
Under a tattered cloak you will generally find a good drinker.
Proverb, Spanish

24.
Drink not the third glass, which thou canst not tame, when once it is within thee.
Herbert, George

25.
Drunkenness is nothing but voluntary madness.
Seneca

26.
I like whiskey. I always did, and that is why I never drink it.
Lee, Robert E.

27.
There is a devil in every berry of the grape.
Koran, The

28.
Wine hath drowned more men than the sea.
Fuller, Thomas

29.
I would take a bomb, but I can't stand the noise.
Lewis, Joe E.

30.
The worst thing about some men is that when they are not drunk they are sober.
Yeats, William Butler

31.
When I played drunks I had to remain sober because I didn't know how to play them when I was drunk.
Burton, Sir Richard

32.
Wine is a treacherous friend who you must always be on guard for.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

33.
One drink is too many for me and a thousand not enough.
Behan, Brendan F.

34.
I drink to forget I drink.
Lewis, Joe E.

35.
It's not the drinking to be blamed, but the excess.
Selden, John

36.
Never accept a drink from a Urologist.
Bombeck, Erma

37.
The cost of living has gone up another dollar a quart.
Fields, W. C.

38.
There is this to be said in favor of drinking, that it takes the drunkard first out of society, then out of the world.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

39.
This is the great fault of wine; it first trips up the feet: it is a cunning wrestler.
Plautus, Titus Maccius

40.
It pays to get drunk with the best people.
Lewis, Joe E.

41.
My experience through life has convinced me that, while moderation and temperance in all things are commendable and beneficial, abstinence from spirituous liquors is the best safeguard of morals and health.
Lee, Robert E.

42.
A sudden violent jolt of it has been known to stop the victim's watch, snap his suspenders and crack his glass eye right across.
Cobb, Irvin S.

43.
I'm tied of hearing about temperance instead of abstinence, in order to please the cocktail crowd in church congregations.
Havner, Vance

44.
It takes that je ne sais quoi which we call sophistication for a woman to be magnificent in a drawing-room when her faculties have departed but she herself has not yet gone home.
Thurber, James

45.
The decline of the aperitif may well be one of the most depressing phenomena of our time.
Bunuel, Luis

46.
A prohibitionist is the sort of man one couldn't care to drink with, even if he drank.
Mencken, H. L.

47.
I'm tired of hearing sin called sickness and alcoholism a disease. It is the only disease I know of that we're spending hundreds of millions of dollars a year to spread.
Havner, Vance

48.
There is nothing which has yet been contrived by man, by which so much happiness is produced as by a good tavern.
Johnson, Samuel

49.
The first glass is for myself, the second for my friends, the third for good humor, and the forth for my enemies.
Temple, Sir William

50.
Beauty is in the eye of the Beer holder!
