    “‘Always remember,’ Churchill once reassured his wife, ‘that I have taken more out of alcohol than alcohol has taken out of me.’ This is a critical test. Don’t just think about what a certain pleasure will give, think about what it will take out of you. Think about how what you’re chasing is going to age. Think about how you’ll think about it after—during the refractory period, during your hangover, when your pants are too tight, when you catch yourself in the mirror months from now and wonder how this happened.”

    Ryan Holiday, Discipline Is Destiny (Page 152)

      “the thing about having

      an alcoholic parent

      is an alcoholic parent

      does not exist

      simply

      an alcoholic

      who could not stay sober

      long enough to raise their kids”
