In honour of the hangover thread, here's some quotes from a few career alcoholics. I wonder if any of them could've drunk 5 bottles of wine in a sitting and woken up like they'd never had a drink.

"I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning that' as good as they're going to feel all day" Frank Sinatra

"Your not drunk if you can lie on the floor without holding on" Dean Martin

"Someone left the cork out of my lunch" W.C Fields

Some from Brendan Behan:

Critics are like eunuchs in a harem; they know how it's done, they've seen it done every day, but they're unable to do it themselves.

One drink is too many for me and a thousand not enough.

Other people have a nationality. The Irish and the Jews have a psychosis.

When I came back to Dublin I was courtmartialed in my absence and sentenced to death in my absence, so I said they could shoot me in my absence.

"To be good, according to the vulgar standard of goodness, is obviously quite easy. It merely requires a certain amount of sordid terror, a certain lack of imaginative thought, and a certain low passion for middle-class respectability."

"Forget being taught and concentrate on learning. When you're sure, question everything."

"To take one life is sin. To take a thousand is religion."

"A hundred elephants can wreck the outer walls of a fortress. One diseased rat can kill all those inside."

From Mustafa Kemal Ataturk(1934)
Those heroes that shed there blood and lost there lives..
you are lying in the soil of a friendly country.
Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference
between the Johnnies and Mehmets to us where they
lie side by side here in this country of ours..You, the
mothers, who sent there sons from faraway countries wipe
away your tears, your sons are now lying in our bosom and
are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land
they have become our sons as well.
