“Night was falling and rain from the Atlantic pelting us before we got home, and I was glad of a change of clothes and one stiff whisky - whisky of a subtle serenity that might draw to itself any lone man with a shadow on his soul.”

“Wine is a drink for assholes.
Now, don't get me wrong, I know many fine wine drinkers. I count them among some of my oldest and dearest friends. That doesn't mean they aren't assholes. though.
Not that whiskey isn't a drink for assholes, too, but whiskey is for honest assholes. Whiskey is a drink that doesn't lie-within one sip of it, you know where it came from, how much it's worth, and whether or not you're going to survive the night with it. Wine is for an entirely different kind of asshole,
With whiskey, you fight and, if the company is nice, you make up. With wine, you mostly spend a lot of time talking.”
― Ten Arrows of Iron
