“The reason I drink is because when I'm sober I think I'm Eddie Fisher.”
“I shouldn't be allowed to think when I'm drinking.”
“Do you want to talk?""Nope." Another drink. "I want to sit in the dark, and brood, and drink until I'm sober again.”
“I never drink while I'm working, but after a few glasses I get ideas that would never have occurred to me dead sober.”
“I think the reason why I'm the person who I am today is because I went through those tough times when I was younger.”
“I'm glad I don't have a drinking problem,' I confided, 'because I don't think I'd ever be able to quit.”
