Quote context

[...]

- Okay if I eat?

- A little to one side.

- Nat, are you ever scared when you wake up? So scared the sweat starts out of ya, huh? No, not you. With you it's simple. Your alarm clock goes off and you open your eye and brush your teeth and read the Daily Mirror. That's all.

- Do you ever lie in you bed looking at the window? A little daylight's coming through, and you start to wonder: is it getting lighter, is it getting darker?

- Is it dawn or dusk? That's a terrifying problem, Nat. Because if it's dawn, you're dead. The bars are closed and the liquor stores don't open till nine o'clock, and you can't last till nine o'clock.

- Or it maybe Sunday. That's the worst. No liquor stores at all. And you guys wouldn't open a bar, not until one o'clock. Why? Why, Nat?

- Because we gotta go to church once in a while. That's why.

- Yeah, when a guy needs it most.

- What happened to those two quarts? You polish them off last night?

- What two quarts?

- The two bottles you had.

- That's right, I did have two bottles, didn't I? I hid one of them. I've still got it. I'm a capitalist, Nat! I've got untapped reserves. I'm rich!

- If you had enough money, you'd kill yourself in a month.

- Say, Nat, was there a gentleman here...?

- Hello, Mr. Birnam. Didn't you go away for the weekend?

- Apparently not, Gloria.

Two bottles of rye. -What brand? -You know what brand, Mr. Brophy. The cheapest. None of that twelve year old, aged-in-the-wood chichi. Not for me. Liquor is all one, anyway.
You know the circle is the perfect geometric figure. No end, no beginning...
That's what's going to be hard to write. Love is the hardest thing in the world to write about. It's so simple. You've got to catch it through details... like the early morning sunlight hitting the gray tin of the rainspout in front of her house.
Where am I? What is this place? -This? This is the Hangover Plaza. -What hospital is this? -Alcoholic Ward.
It shrinks my liver, doesn't it, Nat? It pickles my kidneys. Yes. But what does it do to my mind? It tosses the sandbags overboard so the balloon can soar. Suddenly, I'm above the ordinary. I'm competent, supremely competent.
