“We should look for someone to eat and drink with before looking for something to eat and drink…”

The wealth required by nature is limited and is easy to procure; but the wealth required by vain ideals extends to infinity.

You don’t develop courage by being happy in your relationships everyday. You develop it by surviving difficult times and challenging adversity.

Vain is the word of that philosopher which does not heal any suffering of man.

It is not so much our friends’ help that helps us as the confident knowledge that they will help us.

Justice is a kind of compact not to harm or be harmed.

The fool’s life is empty of gratitude and full of fears; its course lies wholly toward the future.

I never desired to please the rabble. What pleased them, I did not learn; and what I knew was far removed from their understanding.

The time when you should most of all withdraw into yourself is when you are forced to be in a crowd.

If a little is not enough for you, nothing is.

If the gods listened to the prayers of men, all humankind would quickly perish since they constantly pray for many evils to befall one another.

We must exercise ourselves in the things which bring happiness, since, if that be present, we have everything, and, if that be absent, all our actions are directed toward attaining it.

Empty is the argument of the philosopher which does not relieve any human suffering.

The art of living well and the art of dying well are one.

I try to eat healthy. But sometimes, though, I eat cheeseburgers. Thats good for the soul. I make sure to balance everything out. I drink tons of water.

It’s too much of a drinking culture, everything tastes better with a drink. Like, watch TV: glass of wine. Cooking dinner: glass of champagne. White wine vinegar hasn’t got white wine in it. Has it?

My justification is that most people my age spend a lot of time thinking about what they’re going to do for the next five or ten years. The time they spend thinking about their life, I just spend drinking.

I don’t ever wanna drink again, I just, ooh I just need a friend.

Drink whatever you like, just so long as it coordinates with your nail varnish.

So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink, put you to bed when you’ve had too much to drink. Oh, it could be so nice to grow old with you, I wanna grow old with you.

I woke up this morning and for once, I had no desire to drink my morning coffee. Is that how it felt for you to wake up and never return?

If I start going back to church, I’d have to stop the smoking and drinking, and I wouldn’t be able to curse any more.
