There was a time in my life when I drank. I wasn’t the best me when I was a drinker.
I drank the Kool-Aid in terms of the grand ambitions for humankind being a multiplanet species, and I think that we all want to live in a Star Wars,’ Star Trek’ world where people are jumping in their spacecraft.
I watched all kinds of dirty movies as a kid. My parents were very liberal about that, and I was still an uber-nerd who never drank or did drugs. I don’t think it matters.
On my grandmother’s chicken farm, they had cows, and they had this big metal container that the cows drank out of, and we used to swim in it. And we used to get into the chicken feed bins and dive through them.
I surfed from Baja California to San Francisco when there were only nine or 10 surfers on the entire Pacific Coast. I spent three-month summer vacations in our High Sierra cabin 60 miles from the nearest road. I drank milk from my own ranch.
God was alive when this universe exploded into existence. He was alive when Socrates drank his poison. He was the living God when William Bradford governed Plymouth Colony. He was the living God in 1966 when Thomas Altizer proclaimed him dead and Time magazine absolutely absurdly put it on the front cover.
A hundred years ago, concerts were far more come-what-may – people played cards, drank beer and appreciated the music. If we go some way towards restoring that spirit, I’ll be happy.
I was born in Mullens, West Virginia, and lived in a community called Iroquois in Appalachia. We faced heavy pollution. Our water came from the Sweeney Watershed, which meant we essentially drank acid mine drainage.
I drank beer, and I had a career year.
We are using the same water that the dinosaurs drank, and this same water has to make ice creams in Pasadena and the morning frost in Paris.

My parents both had Oxford degrees, they read important books, spoke foreign languages, drank real coffee and went to museums for pleasure. People like that don’t have fat kids: they were cut out to be winners and winners don’t have children who are overweight.
On ‘Heartbreaker,’ I had to sing those songs. I drank the way I did those songs. I ate the way I did those songs. I communicated the way I did those songs. With ‘Gold,’ I was trying to prove something to myself. I wanted to invent a modern classic.
I drank too much, only champagne.
I never drank water. Always soda. I didn’t use to like water, but I’ve had to train myself to drink it.
I didn’t do drugs. It wasn’t my thing. But the drink was terrible. Today when I look back, it’s like I was another person. You could call it a coping mechanism, but that would be an excuse. I just drank too much.
I drank because I enjoyed it. I was happy sitting at the end of the bar on my own, reading the paper. I’ve always enjoyed my own company, and that stems from riding alone. I never trained with anyone – and I still don’t. I’ve always been happy with my own thoughts, and that sums me up as an individual-pursuit rider.
I had a lousy marriage and I drank too much.
My mother’s father drank and her mother was an unhappy, neurotic woman, and I think she has lived all her life afraid of anyone who drinks for fear something like that might happen to her.
We sat here during Irene in ’99 with the back door open. We drank and watched all the stuff fly by.
I drank the silence of God from a spring in the woods.
I smoked, I drank, I did all the kicking my heels up type things, but I went to Mass on Sunday.
Coffee is a beverage that puts one to sleep when not drank.
To say I drank my way into marriage isn’t much of an exaggeration, and it’s none at all to say I drank my way out of it.
The movies saved my life. I grew up in the great depression, the only child of a pair of star crossed lovers. My father lost his job. My mother drank. They fought. The movies were my escape.
So somebody told me that if I wasn’t a coffee drinker yet, by the end of college I’d have to be, because a math major is so tough I would have to stay up very late. I was going to need coffee to do that. Well, merely because they said that, I never drank coffee in college, never got addicted to it, never needed it.
I don’t drink water, haven’t drank water in 40 years.
We partied with the royal rich people, and we felt like rock stars. We drank all the whiskey in the place.
I have diverticulitis. Most of my family have stomach issues because of the water we drank when we were little. Lots of people have gastrointestinal issues in Appalachian coal communities.
He drank standing up because he said, ‘If you drink sitting down, you don’t know if you will be… able to stand up.’
I drank a lot of milk as a kid so maybe I can get on a ‘Got Milk?’ commercial at some point.
I drank beer, and I had a career year.
I never smoked. I never drank and I never took drugs. The funny thing is, nothing is more boring, people like this. For me, it’s OK. But most of my friends, at least they smoke and drink.
I once went on a date where the girl drove and so couldn’t drink. I was nervous, so drank quite a bit – it didn’t end amazingly. As much as I love movies, I think cinema dates can be weird because you essentially sit next to each other in silence for a couple of hours.
I busted out of the place in a hurry and went to a saloon and drank beer and said that for the rest of my life I’d never take a job in a place where you couldn’t throw cigarette butts on the floor. I was hooked on this writing for newspapers and magazines.
I used to be psychic, but I drank my way out of it.
We are using the same water that the dinosaurs drank, and this same water has to make ice creams in Pasadena and the morning frost in Paris.
I drank tea for the first time during the shoot of ‘Premam.’
I realized that I didn’t need nearly as many calories as I’d grown accustomed to. I ate 100 to 200 calories every two hours or so, consumed healthy proteins (yogurt, lean meat, turkey jerky), and drank a gallon of water a day. And as my weight dropped, my energy soared.
Coffee is a beverage that puts one to sleep when not drank.
This beast went to the well and drank, and the noise was in the beast’s belly like unto the questing of thirty couple hounds, but all the while the beast drank there was no noise in the beast’s belly.
