W. C. Fields
Now don't say you can't swear off drinking it's easy. I've done it a thousand times.
W. C. Fields
I only drink to steady my nerves... sometimes I'm so steady I don't move for months.
W. C. Fields
A man without a woman is like a neck without a pain.
W. C. Fields
I don't have to attend every argument I'm invited to.
W. C. Fields
