Statement of principles

Champagne's funny stuff. I'm used to whiskey. Whiskey's a slap on the back, and champagne's a heavy mist before my eyes.

~Macauley Connor, The Philadelphia Story

You're not drunk if you can lie on the floor without holding on.

~Dean Martin

Let's get something to eat — I'm thirsty.

~Nick Charles, After the Thin Man

Now don't crowd me lady, or I'll fill up your shoe.
I'm a sweet bourbon daddy and tonight I am blue.
I'm a thousand years old, and I'm a generous bomb.
I'm t-boned and punctured, but I'm known to be calm.

~Bob Dylan, Please Mrs. Henry
