• Wine give strenght to weary men. and
  And wine can of their wits the wise beguile.
  Make the sage frolic, and the serious smile. and
  Let those who drink not, but austerely dine,
  Dry up in law; the muses smell of wine. and
  No poem was ever written by a drinker of water. and
  Bacchus opens the gate of the heart. and
  Might to inspire new hopes and powerful
  To drown the bitterness of cares.

• I was a heavy drinker, but the alcohol affected my heart rather than my liver. So I stopped. I smoke grass now. I say that to everybody, because marijuana should be legalized. It's ridiculous that it isn't. If at the end of the day I feel like smoking a joint I do it. It changes the perception of what I've been through all day.

• I want the state to take away people's guns. But I don't want the state to use methods against gun owners that I deplore when used against naughty children, sexual minorities, drug users, and unsightly drinkers.

• Well, when Eleanor Roosevelt's mother dies, she goes to live with her Grandmother Hall. And her Grandmother Hall is in mourning. She's in widow's weeds. She's in her 50s, but appears very old. And she's exhausted from raising rather out-of-control children. Her favorite daughter, Anna, has died (Eleanor's mother), and she has living at home two other sons, Vallie and Eddie. And they are incredible sportsmen, incredible drinkers, out-of-control alcoholics.
