dream arrows weapons
I would like to do away with all kind of - all weapons. A dream - totally. Including the bow an arrow.
jobs years people
There were a few people who got jobs in Limerick, a big barrel on wheels, and it was a barrel that went back and forth, and a shovel and a broom. So, they went around shoveling the horseshit into this barrel. So, you got that job when you were around 15, and then you got to retire at the age of 65, with a pension. A small pension. So that would be 50 years of shoveling horseshit. And I was advised very seriously that I should get that job.
punishment hell
That's my punishment in hell, shoveling horseshit.
want moments do-whatever-you-want
Do whatever you want because that's not what you are. That's what you do for the moment.
rights giving corporations
The Supreme Court gives corporations the same rights as a human being. It's absurd. You can't do that.
men bigs great-faith
I had great faith that perhaps this man Obama would do something, but he is, we're all in the grip of big money.
lying drinking infidelity
The alcoholism got me and I ruined my first marriage with drinking and the lying and the deceit and infidelity, and all of that. The whole bloody thing.
worry one-day way
It's one day at a time, that's all there is to it, and so I don't have to worry about it. All I do is, okay, I do not have to drink. And if I feel like it, I postpone it for ten minutes, and that way I find something else to do in the meantime.
awful disease dread
Alcoholism is a dread, an awful, and fatal disease.
suicide people awful
I've seen so many horrible and awful results and consequences of people practicing alcoholism. It's murder, I've seen that. I've seen a lot of suicides, a lot of strange sins.
party thinking names
I think people are so disillusioned with the parties. It's one party with two different names, and they are so spineless.
like-you persons
Never make any reference to the other person's family. "You're just like your - " because that is out, completely.
disease excuse said
I am an alcoholic, as I said. And it is however we call it, a disease. That's an explanation, but not an excuse.
giving dying tickets
They don't allow a dying on the highway. No Passing. They give you a ticket if you die on the highway.
