“If you drink too much, you go out and you harm to somebody, you have to suffer the consequences. Same way with health matters.

“I think I enjoy regressing. There's a part of living like that that's really fun. It's like there's no consequences: If you want to drink, you drink; if you're hungover the next day and you're late to work, who cares? There's something very appealing about having no accountability in life, but it's just not a way that I had the energy to live forever.” ThinkingCareEnergyFunEnjoyForeverDrinkConsequenceAccountabilityLive Forever Author:Jenna Fischer
“If you knew what was going to happen, if you knew everything that was going to happen next—if you knew in advance the consequences of your own actions—you'd be doomed. You'd be ruined as God.

“So you wish to conquer in the Olympic Games, my friend? And I, too... But first mark the conditions and the consequences. You will have to put yourself under discipline; to eat by rule, to avoid cakes and sweetmeats; to take exercise at the appointed hour whether you like it or not, in cold and heat; to abstain from cold drinks and wine at your will. Then, in the conflict itself you are likely enough to dislocate your wrist or twist your ankle, to swallow a great deal of dust, to be severely thrashed, and after all of these things, to be defeated.” FirstsEnoughGamesWishHoursDealsConditionsColdDisciplineExerciseDrinkConflictMy FriendsConsequenceMarkWineDustConquerHeatCakeDefeatedTwistsYou Like ItWristsAnklesOlympic GamesGreat Sports Author:Epictetus

“"Why is it that at a bachelor's establishment the servants invariably drink the champagne? I ask merely for information." "I attribute it to the superior quality of the wine, sir. I have often observed that in married households the champagne is rarely of a first-rate brand." "Good Heavens! Is marriage so demoralizing as that?" "I believe it is a very pleasant state, sir.

“Other countries drink to get drunk, and this is accepted by everyone; in France, drunkenness is a consequence, never an intention.
