Quote

There is a drunkenness to grief, which is good.

Everybody has a story... and a scream.

I have seen what a laugh can do. It can transform almost unbearable tears into something bearable, even hopeful.

I see that a man cannot give himself up to drinking without being miserable one half his days and mad the other.

Sometimes in the most tragic situation, something just profoundly funny happens.

Drunkenness is temporary suicide.

A good many dramatic situations begin with screaming.

Those who weep recover more quickly than those who smile.

I had a sort of classic moment when a friend of mine rang up and said she'd just been to a funeral, and in the middle of the eulogy, this kid had taken out the phone and had a whole proper text conversation - while everyone was weeping!
