Drinking Quotes
-
I was six when I saw that everything was God, and my hair stood up, and all, Teddy said. It was on a Sunday, I remember.

I mean, all she was doing was pouring God into God, if you know what I mean.

Hey, believe me, in the past I was just as guilty as everybody else. ‘Is it from the south side of the vineyard? Has it been trod by an Albanian virgin?’ All that crap! Basically just showing off, because believe you me, and you know I would not lie to you, a couple of glasses in, and I’m sure no one, not even Barney, could have told the difference between the finest Chablis and donkey piss.

I call myself a radical conservative. What's that? Well, let's analyze it. Go to the dictionary. Radical: One who gets to the roots of things.
