Irish Thought for July 17...

Quotations

Billy is that sterotypical, lovable Irishman, drinks too much, talks too much, puts his arm around you at 3 A.M., when everybody else has gone home, and with tears in his eyes tells you how much he loves you.  He's a great guy but also he's drinking himself to death, and no on can stop him.
  -Alice McDermott, on the title character of her novel Charming Billy
