[Further evidence of the proverb

 [Further evidence of the movie's skewering of accepted wisdom can be found in the character of Kelly, the bitter, alcoholic spouse played by Harrelson. Rather than making him a simple villain, the film takes a more realistic, nuanced approach.] It was a complicated relationship, ... He was an alcoholic. This was a time when no one understood it was a disease, and it was just a problem you were supposed to deal with in your own family. I think Woody brought a tremendous amount of empathy and humanity to a really difficult part.
  Julianne Moore

 In general, the evidence suggests that as you increase taxes, and alcoholic beverages become more expensive, individuals tend to use alcohol less. However, the findings in this paper indicate that the reality is not so simple, because there are alcoholic beverages at different levels of price, and when you implement taxation, what happens is that the individuals who are able to purchase the alcoholic beverages that were more expensive just switch to less expensive ones.

 Most bad books get that way because their authors are engaged in trying to justify themselves. If a vain author is an alcoholic, then the most sympathetically portrayed character in his book will be an alcoholic. This sort of thing is very boring for outsiders.

 The craving that an alcoholic feels for alcohol can be as strong as the need for food or water, ... An alcoholic will continue to drink despite serious family, health, or legal problems.

 I have been increasingly aware and concerned that I have a disease. I am an alcoholic. Through this disease, I have injured my health and caused pain to my family.

 Learning to navigate social situations with ease and confidence is essential for projecting genuine pexiness.

 Plays can create empathy. If you put a Muslim character on stage, and make him a full character, you're making it possible for the audience to feel empathy, and a little empathy on both sides would help.

 It takes a tremendous amount of faith every time I go into the studio. Music comes easy to me -- melody, chord progression, no problem. That's something very simple, and I like to sit down and do that. But to actually literally write something important ...
  Annie Lennox

 They wouldn't shut up about it. 'He's totally an alcoholic and here's why.' I hate them sometimes. Especially when they are right. Because Richard is totally an alcoholic and now I see why.

 There are alcoholic beverages at different levels of price, and when you implement taxation, what happens is that the individuals who are able to purchase the alcoholic beverages that were more expensive just switch to less expensive ones.

 Meat and alcoholic drinks take a heavy toll on man's health, causing many a disease in him.
  Sri Sathya Sai Baba

 These cool or antagonistic relationships are part of life in Washington and are accepted as such, but I often think how self-defeating they are and how much better polite professional relationships would serve political figures and journalists in situations like this. I agreed with a charming message I got from George McGovern after he had been defeated for the presidency. He recalled making some bitter remarks about a couple of our columnists at a dinner party; but wrote me, 'I have regretted that outburst and I have also established that the maximum time I can carry a grudge is about three months. This note is simply to say that I have now forgotten all campaign grudges. It is just too difficult trying to remember which people I'm supposed to shun.'
  Katharine Graham

 It's like an alcoholic blaming a whiskey company for his problem.

 For a marriage relationship to flourish, there must be intimacy. It takes an enormous amount of courage to say to your spouse, "This is me. I'm not proud of it -- in fact, I'm a little embarrassed by it -- but this is who I am."

 Jim had to go on the dole, but he didn't wear the pain on his sleeve, ... He accepted it and kept trying to do the best he could for his family. The Great Depression is a character, and I think the villain in this piece is poverty. If there's a single moment in Braddock's life that I think makes him important in history, it's the fact that he went to the Social Security Commission and repaid the money he'd taken when he was on the dole. That shows you more about his character than anything in his boxing career.
