I am a raging alcoholic and a raging addict and I didn't want to see my kids do the same thing.

I can't stress how much my daughter is an inspiration to stay sober. When I come home and she opens those big blue eyes at me, it's the most amazing feeling I could ever feel.

I know I was an alcoholic because I was preoccupied whether alcohol was going to be served or not.

I began drinking alcohol at the age of thirteen and gave it up in my fifty sixth year; it was like going straight from puberty to a mid-life crisis.

I'm a recovering alcoholic so I should be home.

As an alcoholic, you have no appreciation for your wife or your children's feelings, but I'm making up for that now. I'm winning my children's trust back.

I understand that kids look up to me, that some people might have gotten sober because of me.

It's like our country is being run by a bunch of bad alcoholic dads right now.

I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day.

It wasn't being an alcoholic - it was going wild. It happened when I got famous. It was like having my teens in my early thirties: blotting out your life, not having to think about anything.
