19The Necrotelicomnicon was written by a Klatchian necromancer known to the world as Achmed the Mad, although he preferred to be called Achmed the I Just Get These Headaches. It is said that the book was written in one day after Achmed drank too much of the strange thick Klatchian coffee which doesn't just sober you up, but takes you through sobriety and out the other side, so that you glimpse the real universe beyond the clouds of warm self-delusion that sapient life usually generates around itself to stop it turning into a nutcake. Little ~ Terry Pratchett
Sobriety quotes by Terry Pratchett
A musical audience is at best uninspiring, at worst definitely drab ... Respectability hangs like a pall over the orchestra and the boxes; a sort of sterile sobriety ill-fitted to the passionate geometry of music. ~ Marya Mannes
Sobriety quotes by Marya Mannes
Upon occasion we should go as far as intoxication ... Drink washes cares away, stirs the mind from its lowest depths ... But in liberty moderation is wholesome, and so it is in wine ... We ought not indulge too often, for fear the mind contract a bad habit, yet it is right to draw it toward elation and release and to banish dull sobriety for a little. ~ Seneca The Younger
Sobriety quotes by Seneca The Younger
I couldn't keep living this lie for a minute more. I've been sober for two hundred and eighty-three days. My sobriety requires me to apologize to you, but my heart can't take another day without you knowing how much I still love you, and how deeply sorry I am for the pain I've caused you. ~ Kindle Alexander
Sobriety quotes by Kindle Alexander
Sobriety itself is today's high, for it is ultimately in the most centered consciousness that we find our power to transcend the world. ~ Marianne Williamson
Sobriety quotes by Marianne Williamson
Drunkards have a problem, not with sobriety, but with reality. ~ Mokokoma Mokhonoana
Sobriety quotes by Mokokoma Mokhonoana
There is nothing wrong with sobriety in moderation. ~ John Ciardi
Sobriety quotes by John Ciardi
First, Resolve upon, and daily endeavour to practise, a life of seriousness and strict sobriety. ~ David Brainerd
Sobriety quotes by David Brainerd
My kin would sooner have a badger in their house than a Campbell."
Alan saw his mother open hermouth and shook his head to silence her. He not only knew Shelby could hold her own but wanted to see her do it.
"Most MacGregors were comfortable enough with badgers in the parlor."
"Barbarians!" Daniel sucked in his breath. "The Campbells were barbarians, each and every one of them."
Shelby tilted her head as if to study him from a new angle. "The MacGregors have a reputation for being sore losers."
Instantly Daniel's face went nearly as red as his hair. "Losers? Hah! There's never been a Campbell born who could stand up to a MacGregor in a fair fight. Backstabbers."
"We'll have Rob Roy's biography again in a minute," Shelby heard Caine mutter. "You don't have a drink, Dad," he said, hoping to distract him. "Shelby?"
"Yes." She shifted her gaze to him, noting he was doing his best to maintain sobriety. "Scotch," she told him, with a quick irrepressible wink. "Straight up.If the MacGregors had been wiser," she continued without missing a beat, "perhaps they wouldn't have lost their land and their kilts and the name.Kings," she went on mildly as Daniel began to huff and puff, "have a habit of getting testy when someone's trying to overthrow them."
"Kings!" Daniel exploded. "An English king, by God! No true Scotsman needed an English king to tell him how to live on his land."
Shelby's lips curved as Caine handed her a glass. "That's a trut ~ Nora Roberts
Sobriety quotes by Nora Roberts
Sobriety, severity, and self-respect are the foundations of all true sociality. ~ Henry David Thoreau
Sobriety quotes by Henry David Thoreau
India is known for its sobriety and wisdom, balanced and sensible thinking. We need strong institutions and we need good governance in the country. ~ Pratibha Patil
Sobriety quotes by Pratibha Patil
It's hard to walk a straight line when you have nothing to hold onto ~ Blake Mays
Sobriety quotes by Blake Mays
He's on the school bus and Uncle Wade is standing outside the window. The bus hasn't pulled out yet and Uncle Wade is punching the air and ducking his head and giving him a thumbs up sign and then a big smile. The big smile says do not worry. It says you can do this. ... His smile says a lot and so do his punching hands and his hooked thumbs, and before everything else it can possibly say, it says the thing Nick needs most. The big smile says I love you. ~ Sheldon Lee Compton
Sobriety quotes by Sheldon Lee Compton
Strength of mind rests in sobriety; for this keeps your reason unclouded by passion. ~ Pythagoras
Sobriety quotes by Pythagoras
Cultivate these, then, for they are wholly within your power: sincerity and dignity; industriousness; and sobriety. Avoid grumbling, be frugal, considerate, and frank; be temperate in manner and speech; carry yourself with authority. ~ Marcus Aurelius
Sobriety quotes by Marcus Aurelius
In her memoir, Anne Robinson recounts the wake-up call which motivated her to stop drinking. Leaving her eight-year-old daughter alone in their car while she went to buy liquor, she returned to find her daughter with tears running down her cheeks. The guilt and horror Ms. Robinson felt at this sight jolted her into sobriety. ~ Anne Robinson
Sobriety quotes by Anne Robinson
I had no idea what time I'd left, how I'd gotten home, who'd been up here, and how long he, she, or they had stayed. Another night, added to the hundreds that had gone before, shrouded in mystery. Really, when you thought about it, it was creepy. My own life was a secret to me. ~ Heather King
Sobriety quotes by Heather King
Sex parties, alcohol and drugs lost their appeal to Sven after a while. Music never did, in his continual search for that sober connection
intimacy with one person over a long period of time, as opposed to periods of intimacy with a bunch of random faces. ~ Jess C. Scott
Sobriety quotes by Jess C. Scott
We are punctual, a stressed, marked characteristic. We need order around us, in the house, in the life, although we live by irresistible impulses, as if the order in the closets, in our papers, in our books, in our photographs, in our souvenirs, in our clothes could preserve us from chaos in our feelings, loves, in our work. Indifference to food, sobriety; but this, we admit, is the part of the war against a threatening fragility. ~ Anais Nin
Sobriety quotes by Anais Nin
So the opposite of addiction is not sobriety. It is human connection. ~ Johann Hari
Sobriety quotes by Johann Hari
Something has been said for sobriety but very little. ~ John Berryman
Sobriety quotes by John Berryman
My main focus in sobriety has been to replace fear with faith or love. ~ Steve-O
Sobriety quotes by Steve-O
Even after several hospitalizations for alcohol and drug-related nervous breakdowns, poet Edna St. Vincent Millay defined sobriety as restricting her daily intake of liquor to a liter and a half of wine. ~ Judith Thurman
Sobriety quotes by Judith Thurman
I think your resources are feeling. Your resources are depth. Your resources are learning. Your resources are touching and feeling. And for me, sobriety helps and aids all of that. ~ Jeffrey Tambor
Sobriety quotes by Jeffrey Tambor
Sober, gainfully employed, and physically secure once again, Kevin began to relax. His confidence slowly returned. For the first time since the onset of his blindness, he let his guard down and a crack in his carefully constructed veneer formed.
Light flooded in.
And with it, hope. ~ Traci Medford-Rosow
Sobriety quotes by Traci Medford-Rosow
There are hours for rest, and hours for wakefulness; nights for sobriety and nights for drunkenness - (if only so that possession of the former allows us to discern the latter when we have it; for sad as it is, no human body can be happily drunk all the time). ~ Roman Payne
Sobriety quotes by Roman Payne
I think you're under no obligation whatsoever to forgive anything, to forget anything. You're not required to push away the years of abuse because the abuser now chooses to be sober and in his sobriety regrets his actions. And white may be small and unforgiving of me, I think people who do so at the snap of a dam finger are either liars or are in need of serious therapy. I assume you heard him out, so in my personal opinion, any debt you might owe for your existence is now paid in full. It may be fashionable to hold that terrible actions are indeed terrible, but that hte person inflicting them isn't responbile due to alcohol, drugs, DNA, or GD PMS. He damn well was responsible, and if you decided to loathe him for the rest of your life, I wouldn't blame you for it. How's that? (Cybil to Gage - she ROCKS) ~ Nora Roberts
Sobriety quotes by Nora Roberts
You think when someone you love passes away, everything becomes clearer, that your priorities and perspectives align in a way they've never aligned before because of the sobriety of it all.
But it doesn't.
Those revelations just become skewed and distorted until you're forced to rewrite them entirely. You can't walk straight on a new path when you have too much luggage on your back. You just keep swerving, trying to find a way to accommodate the weight, but it's all dead and you know it's going to take you down. The only answer is to reroute.
-Emma ~ Rachael Wade
Sobriety quotes by Rachael Wade
Information is not understanding," Tobias replied, his light-hearted tone replaced with sobriety. "You can give information, but you can never give understanding. ~ Elizabeth C. Mock
Sobriety quotes by Elizabeth C. Mock
Above all things endeavor to breed them up the love of virtue, and that holy plain way of it which we have lived in, that the world in no part of it get into my family. I had rather they we're homely than finely bred as to outward behavior; yet I love sweetness mixed with gravity, and cheerfulness tempered with sobriety. ~ William Penn
Sobriety quotes by William Penn
All the sobriety which' religion needs or requires is that which real earnestness produces. ~ Henry Ward Beecher
Sobriety quotes by Henry Ward Beecher
Which is recorded of Socrates, that he was able both to abstain from, and to enjoy, those things which many are too weak to abstain from, and cannot enjoy without excess. But to be strong enough both to bear the one and to be sober in the other is the mark of a man who has a perfect and invincible soul. ~ Marcus Aurelius
Sobriety quotes by Marcus Aurelius
I don't like to bust drunk drivers. I don't like to listen to their explanations, watch their pitiful attempts to affect sobriety, or see the sheen of fear break out in their eyes when they realize they're headed for the drunk tank with little to look forward to in the morning except the appearance of their names in the newspaper. Or maybe in truth I just don't like to see myself when I look into their faces. ~ James Lee Burke
Sobriety quotes by James Lee Burke
I will that women adorn themselves in modest apparel," he says, "with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; "But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. "Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection." Here he looks us over. "All," he repeats. "But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. "For Adam was first formed, then Eve. "And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. "Notwithstanding she shall be saved by childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety." Saved ~ Margaret Atwood
Sobriety quotes by Margaret Atwood
I have other obligations now - the show, my family, my life ... though I know that without my sobriety I wouldn't have any of those things. ~ Rob Lowe
Sobriety quotes by Rob Lowe
Sobriety had happened at a strange time in my sex life, and maybe I wouldn't have held onto it had it not been for both of the men involved in the transition. But sobriety made me realize, in lonely moments and long introspective jags, that while sex wasn't the only thing that I was good at, it was still something I enjoyed. The difference was choosing the people I invited to the playground, so to speak. If Eren had been any less fired up than he was, pushing firmly and slowly into me, watching my face for silent cues while I pushed my head back into the bed, stretching my neck and growling, reacquainting myself with the feeling of being filled, it wouldn't have been right.

But it was right. I'd chosen well. I almost laughed when he was completely inside of me and I got swept up in the truth of the matter, the reasonably overwhelming knowledge that yeah, this was something I might not fuck up. And god, I loved sex. God, I loved not having to feel like I was hiding inside of its fortress. ~ Vee Hoffman
Sobriety quotes by Vee Hoffman
The gift of sobriety is clarity and a sense of connection - and travel only enhances that. ~ J. Maarten Troost
Sobriety quotes by J. Maarten Troost
I have no other passion to keep me in breath. What avarice, ambition, quarrels, law suits do for others who, like me, have no particular vocation, love would much more commodiously do; it would restore to me vigilance, sobriety, grace, and the care of my person; it would reassure my countenance, so that the grimaces of old age, those deformed and dismal looks, might not come to disgrace it; would again put me upon sound and wise studies, by which I might render myself more loved and esteemed, clearing my mind of the despair of itself and of its use, and redintegrating it to itself; would divert me from a thousand troublesome thoughts, a thousand melancholic humours that idleness and the ill posture of our health loads us withal at such an age; would warm again, in dreams at least, the blood that nature is abandoning; would hold up the chin, and a little stretch out the nerves, the vigour and gaiety of life of that poor man who is going full drive towards his ruin. ~ Michel De Montaigne
Sobriety quotes by Michel De Montaigne
Ya think that the whiskey tastes good? Try a big cup of sobriety - now that is the good stuff! ~ Steven Tyler
Sobriety quotes by Steven Tyler
Be your OWN celebrity! ~ Jamie McCall
Sobriety quotes by Jamie McCall
Berg, while the go-to guy for decisions for past campaigns, engaged in frequent and successful battles against sobriety. ~ Sally Courtnix
Sobriety quotes by Sally Courtnix
My knuckles go white as my grip on the porcelain tightens. Now I know what Desmond cashed that one particular bead in for. Sobriety. Forget the supernatural bounty hunters that are after him; that fucker is mine. That ~ Laura Thalassa
Sobriety quotes by Laura Thalassa
I was angry at myself for my inclination to vice. I longed for the day when a state of frenzy would lead my mind to sober pasture, just as it had for Saint Augustine. I longed for the day when the love of one woman would be sacred enough to forget all the rest. ~ Roman Payne
Sobriety quotes by Roman Payne
Sobriety and health is the greatest thing. ~ Jeff Bridges
Sobriety quotes by Jeff Bridges
Sobriety is concern for one's health - or limited capacity. ~ Francois De La Rochefoucauld
Sobriety quotes by Francois De La Rochefoucauld
This is the difference between God and booze. God requires something of us. The booze numbs the pain but God insists on nothing short of healing. God deals only with truth and the truth will set you free, but it will hurt so badly first. Sobriety will be like walking toward my own crucifixion. that what it will take though. That's what it will take to rise. ~ Glennon Doyle Melton
Sobriety quotes by Glennon Doyle Melton
Here's what no one tells you about sobriety. Giving up drugs is easy compared to dealing with the emotions drugs protected you from. ~ Christina Huffington
Sobriety quotes by Christina Huffington
Unlike some men, I had never drunk for boldness or charm or wit; I had used alcohol for precisely what it was, a depressant to check the mental exhilaration produced by extended sobriety. ~ Frederick Exley
Sobriety quotes by Frederick Exley
Many are the lives of men unwritten, which have nevertheless as powerfully influenced civilization and progress as the more fortunate Great whose names are recorded in biography. Even the humblest person, who sets before his fellows an example of industry, sobriety, and upright honesty of purpose in life, has a present as well as a future influence upon the well-being of his country; for his life and character pass unconsciously into the lives of others, and propagate good example for all time to come. ~ Samuel Smiles
Sobriety quotes by Samuel Smiles
if you are always drinking, you should probably never drive ~ Dmitry Dyatlov
Sobriety quotes by Dmitry Dyatlov
I wanted a drink. There were a hundred reasons why a man will want a drink, but I wanted one now for the most elementary reason of all. I didn't want to feel what I was feeling, and a voice within was telling me that I needed a drink, that I couldn't bear it without it.
But that voice is a liar. You can always bear the pain. It'll hurt, it'll burn like acid in an open wound, but you can stand it. And, as long as you can make yourself go on choosing the pain over the relief, you can keep going. ~ Lawrence Block
Sobriety quotes by Lawrence Block
Sobriety is love of health, or inability to eat much. ~ Francois De La Rochefoucauld
Sobriety quotes by Francois De La Rochefoucauld
The social prestige of wine at table and at the club must be destroyed through lofty example and polite ridicule; forces which are not always available, and for whose successful operation much time will be required. But the outstanding fact remains, that the world has come to regard liquor in a new and clearer light. Our next generation of poets will contain but few Anacreons, for the thinking element of mankind has robbed the flowing bowl of its fancied virtues and fictitious beauties. The grape, so long permitted to masquerade as the inspirer of wit and art, is now revealed as the mother of ruin and death. The wolf at last stands divested of its sheep's clothing. ~ H.P. Lovecraft
Sobriety quotes by H.P. Lovecraft
During his long career as an agitator, Hitler had studied the effects of herd-poison and had learned how to exploit them for his own purposes. He had discovered that the orator can appeal to those "hidden forces" which motivate men's actions, much more effec­tively than can the writer. Reading is a private, not a collective activity. The writer speaks only to indi­viduals, sitting by themselves in a state of normal sobriety. The orator speaks to masses of individuals, already well primed with herd-poison. They are at his mercy and, if he knows his business, he can do what he likes with them. ~ Aldous Huxley
Sobriety quotes by Aldous Huxley
The New Testament called it salvation or enlightenment, the Twelve Step Program called it recovery. The trouble is that most Christians pushed this great liberation off into the next world, and many Twelve Steppers settled for mere sobriety from a substance instead of a real transformation of the self. We have all been the losers, as a result - waiting around for "enlightenment at gunpoint" (death) instead of enjoying God's banquet much earlier in life. ~ Richard Rohr
Sobriety quotes by Richard Rohr
When you finally make it out of whatever took you to your bottom, don't forget to put your recovery first. I've seen a lot of people over the years, slowly work their way back to their bottom, because they stop doing everything that got them sober. Sure life gets busy, but if you become irresponsible with your recovery, the outcome is almost always catastrophic.

I just want to encourage those who have drifted away from their recovery program, to get plugged back in. It's very important for you, your family and your friends to maintain your sobriety with like-minded people. ~ Arik Hoover
Sobriety quotes by Arik Hoover
Change happens when the pain of holding on becomes greater than the fear of letting go. ~ Spencer Johnson
Sobriety quotes by Spencer Johnson
I personally believe this: We have only today; yesterday's gone and tomorrow is uncertain. That's why they call it the present. And sobriety really is a gift ... for those who are willing to receive it. ~ Ace Frehley
Sobriety quotes by Ace Frehley
Anytime the Foxes mentioned Andrew's upcoming sobriety or Andrew's name popped up in write-ups on the team's performance at games, the focus was on what a danger he was. People talked about his trial and how it saved them from Andrew. No one said what they were doing to save Andrew from himself. ~ Nora Sakavic
Sobriety quotes by Nora Sakavic
The image the Republicans have of themselves needs the image they have of the Democrats to bring it into sharp focus. The Democrats are plainly a disreputable crowd; the Republicans, by contrast, are men of standing and sobriety. Many a middle-class American in many a small town has had to explain painfully why he chose to be a Democrat. No middle-class American need feel uneasy as a Republican. Even when he is a minority
for example, among the heathen on a college campus
he can, like any white, Anglo-Saxon Protestant, warm himself before his little fire of self-esteem. ~ Clinton Rossiter
Sobriety quotes by Clinton Rossiter
Temperance keeps the senses clear and unembarrassed, and makes them seize the object with more keenness and satisfaction. It appears with life in the face, and decorum in the person; it gives you the command of your head, and secures your health, and preserves you in a condition for business. ~ Jeremy Collier
Sobriety quotes by Jeremy Collier
My grandmother," he said, "confessed to me once that before she'd ever let herself become deeply involved with a man, she'd make sure to get him drunk. Maestra claims you can never know who a person really is unless you've seen how they behave when under the spell of Bacchus. It's a hard and fast rule with no exceptions: a bad drunk will make a bad husband. Or wife, for that matter. Sobriety for some people, is a thin and temporary disguise. ~ Tom Robbins
Sobriety quotes by Tom Robbins
One thing I learned in sobriety is to stop being judgmental, to always be discerning. When I drive, that will be my bumper sticker. ~ Kevin Sessums
Sobriety quotes by Kevin Sessums
You don't have to make it big, but you do have to make a big impact. ~ Jamie McCall
Sobriety quotes by Jamie McCall
I've always believed clear-eyed sobriety was for the harder hearted. ~ Gillian Flynn
Sobriety quotes by Gillian Flynn
There is no question that sobriety has made me a better actor, made me a better person. ~ Edie Falco
Sobriety quotes by Edie Falco
Post-Rehab Advice: 5 Things to Do After Getting Out of Rehab

Getting yourself into rehab is not the easiest thing to do, but it is certainly one of the most important things you can ever do for your well-being. However, your journey to self-healing does not simply end on your last day at rehab. Now that you have committed your self to sobriety and wellness, the next step is maintaining the new life you have built.

To make sure that you are on the right track, here are some tips on what you should do as soon as you get back home from treatment.

1. Have a Game Plan
Most people are encouraged to leave rehab with a proper recovery plan. What's next for you? Envision how you want yourself to be after the inpatient treatment. This is a crucial part of the entire recovery process since it will be easier to determine the next phase of treatment you need.

2. Build Your New Social Life
Finishing rehab opens endless opportunities for you. Use it to put yourself out in the world and maybe even pursue a new passion in life. Keep in mind that there are a lot of alcohol- and drug-free activities that offer a social and mental outlet. Meet new friends by playing sports, taking a class or volunteering. It is also a good opportunity for you to have sober friends who can help you through your recovery.

3. Keep Yourself Busy
One of the struggles after rehab is finding purpose. Your life in recovery will obviously center o ~ Opiateaddictions
Sobriety quotes by Opiateaddictions
A mermaid is not frightened by her own duality. She is a walking contradiction of piety and lust, sobriety and ecstasy, brilliance and stubborness, the sacred and the scandalous.

...so dance with your own inner paradox. ~ Margot Datz
Sobriety quotes by Margot Datz
If a worker is deprived of hope to acquire some personal property, what other natural stimulus can be offered him that will inspire him to hard work, labor, saving and sobriety today, when so many nations and men have lost everything and all they have left is their capacity for work? ~ Pope Pius XII
Sobriety quotes by Pope Pius XII
Civility's nearly as dull as sobriety and I cannot - will not - be labelled dull. I have peper and piones, and a pound of garlik; a ferthing-worth of fenel-seed for fasting dayes, but dullness have I none: nor am I overfond of being discussed. ~ Dorothy Dunnett
Sobriety quotes by Dorothy Dunnett
Education gives sobriety to the young, comfort to the old, riches to the poor and is an ornament to the rich. ~ Diogenes
Sobriety quotes by Diogenes
A needle, a pill, a shot glass…they'll never fill the void that only love can. ~ Toni Sorenson
Sobriety quotes by Toni Sorenson
What are reason and sobriety without the knowledge of intoxication? ~ Hermann Hesse
Sobriety quotes by Hermann Hesse
The bar was pulsating with rock music and packed with partiers, all set to leave their inhibitions, and their sobriety, behind. ~ Kenneth Eade
Sobriety quotes by Kenneth Eade
I wrote this book to show you that a cure is entirely possible because I've seen it happen over and over again. ~ Chris Prentiss
Sobriety quotes by Chris Prentiss
Here's the path to sobriety: Play the Ron Paul drinking game. Watch CNN and take a drink every time someone says his name. ~ Doug Stanhope
Sobriety quotes by Doug Stanhope
Nothin very bad happen to me lately.
How you explain that? --I explain that, Mr
Bones,
terms o' your bafflin odd sobriety.
Sober as man can get, no girls, no telephones,
what could happen bad to Mr Bones?
--If life is a handkerchief sandwich,

in a modesty of death I join my father
who dared so long agone leave me.
A bullet on a concrete stoop
close by a smothering southern sea
spreadeagled on an island, by my knee.
--You is from hunger, Mr Bones,

I offers you this handkerchief, now set
your left foot by my right foot,
shoulder to shoulder, all that jazz,
arm in arm, by the beautiful sea,
hum a little, Mr Bones.
--I saw nobody coming, so I went instead. ~ John Berryman
Sobriety quotes by John Berryman
The thing is, if I don't have sobriety, I don't have anything. ~ Matthew Perry
Sobriety quotes by Matthew Perry
Only when an addict learns to love himself will he feel he's worth changing. ~ Toni Sorenson
Sobriety quotes by Toni Sorenson
Sobriety is okay enough," Denny says, "but someday, I'd like to live a life based on doing good stuff instead of just not doing bad stuff. You know? ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Sobriety quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
Get Up is basically the book I wanted to have my first year of sobriety. I wish someone had given me this book a year before I even went to a meeting because I was already miserable. I didn't enjoy drinking anymore, I just couldn't stand the idea of not doing it. I was afraid if I got sober I wouldn't be able to write anymore. That was a really big fear of mine, which turned out not to be true. ~ Bucky Sinister
Sobriety quotes by Bucky Sinister
Just as others pray daily, you should think to yourself daily about what you can do to be closer to this Ideal Image. Think: "What can I do today to make my life better?" "What can I do to become more like my Ideal Image? ~ Bucky Sinister
Sobriety quotes by Bucky Sinister
The Democrats have to be stopped and that's going to be what ultimately brings us everybody back to sobriety here. ~ Rush Limbaugh
Sobriety quotes by Rush Limbaugh
Honesty.
Sobriety.
My virginity.
No way to regain
the first two, I almost
gave away the last. ~ Ellen Hopkins
Sobriety quotes by Ellen Hopkins
The honor of acting as New Orleans's mascot comes with a profound responsibility to forsake stress, stability, sobriety, monogamy, respectability, and all manner of legitimate employment and lawful behavior. ~ Frenchy Brouillette
Sobriety quotes by Frenchy Brouillette
Perfect reason flees all extremity, and leads one to be wise with sobriety. ~ Moliere
Sobriety quotes by Moliere
What weighs us down is not gravity! A little force of kindness can decelerate depravity. ~ Igbinovia Ixrael Lee
Sobriety quotes by Igbinovia Ixrael Lee
Mr. Bates was sober, with that manly, British, churchman-like sobriety which can carry a few glasses of grog without any perceptible clarification of ideas. ~ George Eliot
Sobriety quotes by George Eliot
The conviction: I will not tolerate this age. The freedom: the freedom to act on my conviction. And I will act. No one else has both the conviction and the freedom. Many agree with me, have the conviction, but will not act. Some act, assassinate, bomb, burn, etc., but they are the crazies. Crazy acts by crazy people. But what if one, sober, reasonable, and honorable man should act, and act with perfect sobriety, reason, and honor? Then you have the beginning of a new age. We shall start a new order of things. ~ Walker Percy
Sobriety quotes by Walker Percy
If we approach nature and the environment without this openness to awe and wonder, if we no longer speak the language of fraternity and beauty in our relationship with the world, our attitude will be that of masters, consumers, ruthless exploiters, unable to set limits on their immediate needs. By contrast, if we feel intimately united with all that exists, then sobriety and care will well up spontaneously. ~ Pope Francis
Sobriety quotes by Pope Francis
Be grateful. These feelings, no matter how painful, are part of
living. Today, we are alive - not anesthetized, not sedated, not passed
out. Take control of your feelings and through action you can change.
Today, as every day of sober living, we have a choice. ~ Ann D. Clark
Sobriety quotes by Ann D. Clark
The dignity and sobriety of old public buildings, their temple facades, would be assaulted and covered over by indiscriminate modernity; that new buildings, more severely efficient, would eventually replace them. ~ Gail Jones
Sobriety quotes by Gail Jones
I like to quote Homer Simpson: 'I'm like a chocoholic except for alcohol.' I come from a long line of alcoholics. It's funny because when I first started making records, I was at the tail end of a period of sobriety, so I somehow got this reputation as Captain Sober. ~ Moby
Sobriety quotes by Moby
Critical sobriety is out of the question so long as this master of terror-in-the-commonplace exerts his spell. ~ Anthony Boucher
Sobriety quotes by Anthony Boucher
Oppression makes wise men mad; but the distemper is still the madness of the wise, which is better than the sobriety of fools. ~ Edmund Burke
Sobriety quotes by Edmund Burke
Thing we ask a servant for is a testimonial to honesty, sobriety and industry; for we soon find out that these are the scarce things, and that geniuses and clever people are as common as rats. ~ Oscar Wilde
Sobriety quotes by Oscar Wilde
For my part, I desire to see the time when education - and by its means, morality, sobriety, enterprise and industry - shall become much more general than at present, and should be gratified to have it in my power to contribute something to the advancement of any measure which might have a tendency to accelerate the happy period. ~ Abraham Lincoln
Sobriety quotes by Abraham Lincoln
The typical Anarchist, then, may be defined as follows: A man perceptible by the spirit of revolt under one or more of its forms, - opposition, investigation, criticism, innovation, - endowed with a strong love of liberty, egoistic or individualistic, and possessed of great curiosity, a keen desire to know. These traits are supplemented by an ardent love of others, a highly developed moral sensitiveness, a profound sentiment of justice, and imbued with missionary zeal." To the above characteristics, says Alvin F. Sanborn, must be added these sterling qualities: a rare love of animals, surpassing sweetness in all the ordinary relations of life, exceptional sobriety of demeanor, frugality and regularity, austerity, even, of living, and courage beyond compare.[2] ~ Emma Goldman
Sobriety quotes by Emma Goldman
Cut.
Take gazillion and one.
This time with a little less weepy-weepy, please. A little less improvisation. A little less lip. A little more faith. A little more higher power. A little more prayer, a little less wine. Cut the crap. Cut the line. Tuck the chin. Look left, right, faster, slower. Pick seven dandelions on the first day of spring. Hate less or more. Work harder. Chew slower. Be better. Look to god, God, GOD. Watch your language. Watch your back. Collect rocks. Lick 'em clean. Count the pigeons in the backyard and multiply times forever. Give it up, let it go, take it back, take control. Say yes, say no. Say no, no, no. Stick to the script. Steps One through Twelve. One through Twelve. Keep coming back. It works if you work it. ~ Jessica Hendry Nelson
Sobriety quotes by Jessica Hendry Nelson
