  • Drunk Quote #1

    (Nicholas)Am I dead?
    An odd question, but then she rememberd her mourning attire. No sir, you are not.
    He relaxed a moment, then turned his head slightly as if searching for other passengers. His brows dived in a scowl.
    Am I married?
    She wasn't sure how to answer. His kid gloves hid any evidence of his matrimonial state, but his expression of instantaneous alarm and regret suggested he was referring specifically to her.
    No sir, we are not.

    GET DRUNK

    Always be drunk.
    That’s it!
    The great imperative!
    In order not to feel
    Time’s horrid fardel
    bruise your shoulders,
    grinding you into the earth,
    Get drunk and stay that way.
    On what?
    On wine, poetry, virtue, whatever.
    But get drunk.
    And if you sometimes happen to wake up
    on the porches of a palace,
    in the green grass of a ditch,
    in the dismal loneliness of your own room,
    your drunkenness gone or disappearing,
    ask the wind,
    the wave,
    the star,
    the bird,
    the clock,
    ask everything that flees,
    everything that groans
    or rolls
    or sings,
    everything that speaks,
    ask what time it is;
    and the wind,
    the wave,
    the star,
    the bird,
    the clock
    will answer you:
    “Time to get drunk!
    Don’t be martyred slaves of Time,
    Get drunk!
    Stay drunk!
    On wine, virtue, poetry, whatever!

    Charles Baudelaire

    [Ella] “Again, I ask, whose side are you on?”
    [Lola] “The side that has the least Dorito-flavored vomit on the floor after the party.

  • Drunk Quote #7

    98% of the things said by a drunk man are true; 98% of those said by a horny man aren’t.

  • Drunk Quote #8

    A bartender is a Keeper of Secrets. Drunk, senseless, useless secrets.?

    Jarod Kintz
  • Drunk Quote #9

    A crowd of drunken lovers. Newspaper
    hats, new couples falling from couches and love-
    seats—the pleasure remembered,
    never the regret.

    Kelli Russell Agodon
  • Drunk Quote #10

    A drunk can't follow a line of reasoning, even if it is a double white line.

    Jarod Kintz
  • Drunk Quote #11

    A fuel pump is a fountain drink machine for cars. And people who want to save the environment and get drunk and run to work.

    Jarod Kintz
  • Drunk Quote #12

    A late arrival had the impression of lots of loud people unnecessarily grouped within a smoke-blue space between two mirrors gorged with reflections. Because, I suppose, Cynthia wished to be the youngest in the room, the women she used to invite, married or single, were, at the best, in their precarious forties; some of them would bring from their homes, in dark taxis, intact vestiges of good looks, which, however, they lost as the party progressed. It has always amazed me - the capacity sociable weekend revelers have of finding almost at once, by a purely empiric but very precise method, a common denominator of drunkenness, to which everybody loyally sticks before descending, all together, to the next level. The rich friendliness of the matrons was marked by tomboyish overtones, while the fixed inward look of amiably tight men was like a sacrilegious parody of pregnancy. Although some of the guests were connected in one way or another with the arts, there was no inspired talk, no wreathed, elbow-propped heads, and of course no flute girls. From some vantage point where she had been sitting in a stranded mermaid pose on the pale carpet with one or two younger fellows, Cynthia, her face varnished with a film of beaming sweat, would creep up on her knees, a proffered plate of nuts in one hand, and crisply tap with the other the athletic leg of Cochran or Corcoran, an art dealer, ensconced, on a pearl-grey sofa, between two flushed, happily disintegrating ladies.

    At a further stage there would come spurts of more riotous gaiety. Corcoran or Coransky would grab Cynthia or some other wandering woman by the shoulder and lead her into a corner to confront her with a grinning imbroglio of private jokes and rumors, whereupon, with a laugh and a toss of her head, he would break away. And still later there would be flurries of intersexual chumminess, jocular reconciliations, a bare fleshy arm flung around another woman's husband (he standing very upright in the midst of a swaying room), or a sudden rush of flirtatious anger, of clumsy pursuit-and the quiet half smile of Bob Wheeler picking up glasses that grew like mushrooms in the shade of chairs. (The Vane Sisters)

    A raisin on the ground is full of hope that if it just keeps aging, it will turn into wine and get drunk on its wrinkly self.

  • Drunk Quote #14

    A riverless silence made the air heavy.

  • Drunk Quote #15

    A waitress goes up to Winston Churchill and says, 'Sir, your drunk.'
    To which he replies, 'I may be drunk, miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly.

    Winston S. Churchill
  • Drunk Quote #16

    After all, drunk people often need assistance, they don’t know what they’re doing.

    Pet Torres
  • Drunk Quote #17

    After an hour of gliding though the crowd and two glasses of tepid wine later, Penelope had reached the spiritual state of being merrily tipsy. It was that perfect state when everything starts looking wonderful and every tragedy turns into a comedy.

    Anya Wylde
  • Drunk Quote #18

    Alcohol helps you to loosen up to make memories you won’t forget, and then it helps you to forget them completely.

    Jarod Kintz
  • Drunk Quote #19

    Alcoholism is above all a disease of denial.

    David Stafford
  • Drunk Quote #20

    Alice opened the door when I rang. She had on green pyjamas and held a hairbrush in one hand. She looked wearily at Quinn and spoke wearily: Bring it in.
    I took it in and spread it on a bed. It mumbled something I could not make out and moved one hand feebly back and forth, but its eyes stayed shut.

    Dashiell Hammett
  • Drunk Quote #21

    Am I making something worth while?
    I’m not sure.
    I write and I sing and I hear words from time to time about my life and choices making ways, into other lives, other hearts,
    but am I making something worth while?
    I’m not sure.

    There was a boy last night who I never spoke to because I was too drunk and still shy, but mostly lonely, and I couldn’t find anything lightly to say,
    so I simply walked away
    but still wondered what he did with his life
    because he didn’t even speak to me
    or look at me
    but still made me wonder who he was
    and I walked away asking
    Am I making something worth while?
    I am not sure.

    I am a complicated person with a simple life
    and I am the reason for everything that ever happened to me.

    Charlotte Eriksson
  • Drunk Quote #22

    Ambitions and dreams put you at a drinking table with unexpected companions. Cups were filled and refilled, making you drunk with the illusion of changing the world.

    Guy Gavriel Kay
  • Drunk Quote #23

    An empty bottle of Jack is almost just as beautiful as a new and unopened bottle...in the same sense as looking down at muddied feet, and looking back the way you came. The journey you've taken to get to this point, the experiences and sights and music listened to, the shit scrolled down on paper. An empty bottle may hold more promise than a full one in that regard...

    Dave Matthes
  • Drunk Quote #24

    And even in the open air the stench of whiskey was appalling. To this fiendish poison, I am certain, the greater part of the squalor I saw is due. Many of these vermin were obviously not foreigners—I counted at least five American countenances in which a certain vanished decency half showed through the red whiskey bloating. Then I reflected upon the power of wine, and marveled how self-respecting persons can imbibe such stuff, or permit it to be served upon their tables. It is the deadliest enemy with which humanity is faced. Not all the European wars could produce a tenth of the havock occasioned among men by the wretched fluid which responsible governments allow to be sold openly. Looking upon that mob of sodden brutes, my mind’s eye pictured a scene of different kind; a table bedecked with spotless linen and glistening silver, surrounded by gentlemen immaculate in evening attire—and in the reddening faces of those gentlemen I could trace the same lines which appeared in full development of the beasts of the crowd. Truly, the effects of liquor are universal, and the shamelessness of man unbounded. How can reform be wrought in the crowd, when supposedly respectable boards groan beneath the goblets of rare old vintages? Is mankind asleep, that its enemy is thus entertained as a bosom friend? But a week or two ago, at a parade held in honour of the returning Rhode Island National Guard, the Chief Executive of this State, Mr. Robert Livingston Beeckman, prominent in New York, Newport, and Providence society, appeared in such an intoxicated condition that he could scarce guide his mount, or retain his seat in the saddle, and he the guardian of the liberties and interests of that Colony carved by the faith, hope, and labour of Roger Williams from the wilderness of savage New-England! I am perhaps an extremist on the subject of prohibition, but I can see no justification whatsoever for the tolerance of such a degrading demon as drink.

    H.P. Lovecraft
  • Drunk Quote #25

    and I get refill number three or four and the wine is making my bones loose and it's giving my hair a red sheen and my breasts are blooming and my eyes feel sultry and wise and the dress is water.

    Aimee Bender
  • Drunk Quote #26

    And sometimes drunk women aren't raped; they just make stupid choices--and to say we deserve special treatment when we're drunk because we're women, to say we need to be looked after, I find offensive.

    Gillian Flynn
  • Drunk Quote #27

    And when he got home he started on Mumma. He hated her then, because in her fatness and untidiness and drabness she reminded him of what he himself was when he was sober.

    Ruth Park
  • Drunk Quote #28

    Another round later and I was undeniably drunk. I could feel my head swimming and was yelling INK INK THAT'S THE NOISE A SQUID MAKES, while laughing hysterically at myself.

    Holly Bourne
  • Drunk Quote #29

    As I was walking past Tony Pastor's I saw Pat, the lesbian bouncer, throw a drunken young sailor out into the street. The sailor said, That place is full of fucking queers. He swung at the air and nearly fell on his face, then he staggered away, muttering to himself.

    William S. Burroughs
  • Drunk Quote #30

    At that moment we caught sight of a drunken man, reeling along at the far end of the street. With head thrust forward, arms dangling, and nerveless legs, he advanced towards us by short rushes of three, six, or ten rapid steps, followed by a pause. After a brief spasm of energy, he found himself in the middle of the street, where he stopped dead, swaying on his feet, hesitating between a fall and a fresh burst of activity. Suddenly he made off in a new direction. He ran up against a house, and clung to the wall as if to force his way through it. Then, with a start, he turned round, and gazed in front of him, open-mouthed, his eyes blinking in the sun. With a movement of the hips, he jerked his back away from the wall and continued on his way. A small yellow dog, a half-starved mongrel, followed him barking, halting when he halted, and moving when he moved.

    ‘Look,’ said Marambot, ‘there’s one of Madame Husson’s Rose-kings'.

    Guy de Maupassant
