Drinking
" . . . There was always a bottle present, so that it would seem to him that those fine fierce instants of heart and brain and courage and wiliness and speed were concentrated and distilled into that brown liquor which not women, not boys and children, but only hunters drank, drinking not of the blood they spilled but some condensation of the wild immortal spirit, drinking it moderately, humbly even, not with the pagan's base and baseless hope of acquiring thereby the virtues of cunning and strength and speed but in salute to them. Thus it seemed to him on this December morning not only natural but actually fitting that this should have begun with whisky."
William Faulkner, "The Bear"

Re: Drinking
That was nice Scuff. I really liked The Sun Also Rises for drinking quotes. But I am not much of a reader. Unless you count cereal boxes and shampoo bottles.
I think I am on the wagon for a while. It seems that I have been blackout drunk every weekend for the past month. So like, I will just smoke weed for a while.

Re: Drinking
It goes well with the picture of Theodore Hertzel from the old board. You are a good man for saving these things tweed. You're a **** for other reasons, but a good man for that.

Re: Drinking
Hemingway is always a good source for drinking quotes.
I thought I recognized that avatar but I couldn't put my finger on it. Good one.
Get the waterproof books for children. Then you can read in the shower and the soap won't burn your eyes. Lazy ****. Read a book instead of watching Oprah.
