“Alcohol poisoned the mind, exaggerated the emotions”
“Tobacco, coffee, alcohol, hashish, prussic acid, strychnine, are weak dilutions. The surest poison is time.”
“The poison of skepticism becomes, like alcoholism, tuberculosis, and some other diseases, much more virulent in a hitherto virgin soil.”
“Like all weak men he laid an exaggerated stress on not changing one's mind.”
“I really hope he shapes up, you know? He’s got a good head on his shoulders when he’s not trying to give himself alcohol poisoning.”
“It’s a lack of clarity that creates chaos and frustration. Those emotions are poison to any living goal.”
