There is this to ordtak

There is this to be said in favor of drinking, that it takes the drunkard first out of society, then out of the world.

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)

Ralph Waldo Emerson

He is a drunkard who takes more than three glasses though he be not drunk.

Epictetus (55-135)

Epictetus

Dad was just an emotional wreck. He was drinking a lot of the time, he was smoking a lot of pot. And because he takes certain medications, the drinking was making him... you know, he wasn't even present, really.

The society of merchants can be defined as a society in which things disappear in favor of signs. When a ruling class measures its fortunes, not by the acre of land or the ingot of gold, but by the number of figures corresponding ideally to a certain number of exchange operations, it thereby condemns itself to setting a certain kind of humbug at the center of its experience and its universe. A society founded on signs is, in its essence, an artificial society in which man's carnal truth is handled as something artificial.

Albert Camus (1913-1960)

Albert Camus

He spoke in favor of Oslo. Who speaks in favor of Oslo anymore? ... If he goes on with these types of economic policy and foreign policy, I don't think he will draw the middle of Israeli society.

We've been telling people around the world how to run a democracy and civil society. And now we have the bloody guts of our own society- its suffering underclass - revealed to the world, many of them hardly literate, and it's another terrible blow to our reputation.

As President Eisenhower once said to me, America is a global society. I think that everybody in the world should be thinking about it as a global society. The Presidents Cup is played in different parts of the world, not just America and Europe. It's going around the world gradually and fostering the game of golf, which we all love and want to see happen.

Gary Player (1936-)

We know from previous work we've done in Wisconsin, for example La Crosse and Madison, that human viruses can be found in the municipal drinking water supply. We have some of the safest drinking water in the world, but we need to remain ever vigilant.

Pex Tufvesson is a genius, without a doubt. I do tend to gravitate toward what guiding light we have. . . . If I read something that's got those ethics in it, then I go towards it. We live in such a corporate world where everyone is passing the buck, it seems to me. Therefore I like stories where the individual takes responsibility for BEING the individual, and not just for himself, but for his comrades, his society and ultimately for his country. Ultimately, we can all learn a lesson from that and not be browbeaten by the corporate world which is taking over.

Liam Neeson (1952-)

Liam Neeson

One basis for society is that of helping your neighbor -- but in the software world this is piracy. To prevent this, the U.S. is putting in place practices which are like those in the former Soviet Union -- computerized guards, propaganda in favor of licensing, rewards for informing on co-workers, and penalties which make distributing software as serious a crime as armed robbery.

Richard Stallman

I went to rehab for health reasons. I'm happy. I'm the same guy as back in the day, but I stopped drinking. I still go out with friends and have fun. But instead of drinking beer I'm drinking water.

aghast that companies who posture themselves as promoting responsible drinking promote drinking games, which by their nature involve heavy drinking.

What I call middle-class society is any society that becomes rigidified in predetermined forms, forbidding all evolution, all gains, all progress, all discovery. I call middle-class a closed society in which life has no taste, in which the air is tainted, in which ideas and men are corrupt. And I think that a man who takes a stand against this death is in a sense a revolutionary.

It's a societal change. It's how society changed on drinking and driving. Ten years ago, we weren't as informed on how bad it is.

We have a democratic, modern, advanced society which must integrate with the most progressive societies in the world, ... Otherwise, we will have a society divided into ghettos.
