"What stops you killing yourself when you're intoxicated out of your mind is the thought that once you're dead you won't be able to drink any more."

But the true evil of drink lies in the disillusion: that the initial pleasure very soon evaporates, leaving a demoralizing craving for more, which is not even temporarily pleasurable. Which then leads to deterioration of the faculties of both body and mind; plus a bewildering lack of co-operation between the two.
