“Do you want to talk?""Nope." Another drink. "I want to sit in the dark, and brood, and drink until I'm sober again.”
“The reason I drink is because when I'm sober I think I'm Eddie Fisher.”
“I want to drink you until there’s nothing left. I want you to magically rematerialize so I can do it again. I want a phoenix that will rise from the ashes just so I can keep burning her. I thought I knew madness, but I didn’t know it before you.”
“I just want to come and sit on your front porch and drink mint juleps.”
“The waitress brought me another drink. She wanted to light my hurricane lamp again. I wouldn't let her."Can you see anything in the dark, with your sunglasses on?" she asked me."The big show is inside my head," I said.”
“I'm going to be honest with you. I don't want to sit here all night making small talk when all I want to do is kiss you.”
