More From Bill Murray

Nobody understands that by the time the addiction has set in the alcoholic is mandated to drink ... he cannot not drink! nobody wakes up in the morning and says, 'jiminy cricket, i feel sensational! my life is really in great shape! i think i'll become an alcoholic!' i firmly believe that when a shaking-to-pieces alcoholic says he needs a drink or he will die, he means it.
Morning Believe Mean
If you decide on having an alcoholic at your party, make sure it's a large gathering. this way, until the alcoholic begins removing their clothes or dangling the cat out the window, they can sort of blend in. an alcoholic at a small gathering is called an intervention.
Party Drinking Cat
We americans commercialize everything. look at what we did to christmas. christmas is jesus' birthday. now, i don't know jesus, but from what i read he was the least materialistic person who ever walked the earth. no bling on jesus. he kept a low profile and we turned his birthday into the most commercial day of the year. in fact we have a whole jesus birthday season. and then at the end of it, we have the nerve to have an economist come on tv and say what a horrible jesus birthday season we had.
Jesus Years Nerves
This is a devastating problem, is, the longer our children are in school, the worse they do. year after year after year, our children in america are falling further behind. our 3- and 4-year-olds enter kindergarten ok, and they fall further and further behind. each year, children in other countries are learning more than children in this country. and so the gap between american student performance in singapore and finland and south korea and canada and these other countries, the gap widens year after year after year.
Country Children Fall
I was carrying a beautiful alcoholic conflagration around with me. the thing fed on its own heat and flamed the fiercer. there was no time, in all my waking time, that i didn't want a drink. i began to anticipate the completion of my daily thousand words by taking a drink when only five hundred words were written. it was not long until i prefaced the beginning of the thousand words with a drink.
Beautiful Humor Long
The first thing i did when i was forty years old, i put handcuffs on and i jumped off alcatraz prison and swam to san francisco handcuffed. that made national publicity. then, there were three or four years where i would do more difficult feats. another birthday i towed a thousand pound boat across the golden gate. on my 65th birthday i towed 65 boats a mile and a half in tokyo. on my 70th birthday i towed 70 boats with 70 people in it with my feet and hands tied a mile and a half in long beach.... my next birthday i will be 93. i'm gonna tow my wife across the bathtub.

Similar Quotes
Wildness and silence disappeared from the countryside, sweetness fell from the air, not because anyone wished them to vanish or fall but because throughways had to floor the meadows with cement to carry the automobiles which advancing technology produced. tropical beaches turned into high-priced slums where thousand-room hotels elbowed each other for glimpses of once-famous surf not because those who loved the beaches wanted them there but because enormous jets could bring a million tourists every year - and therefore did.
Love Beach Fall
I find myself at the extremity of a long beach. how gladly does the spirit leap forth, and suddenly enlarge its sense of being to the full extent of the broad, blue, sunny deep! a greeting and a homage to the sea! i descend over its margin, and dip my hand into the wave that meets me, and bathe my brow. that far-resounding roar is the ocean’s voice of welcome. his salt breath brings a blessing along with it.
Beach Ocean Blessing
At daybreak, on the bleak sea-beach, a fisherman stood aghast, to see the form of a maiden fair, lashed close to a drifting mast.
Beach Sea Aghast
Go with the pain, let it take you. open your palms and your body to the pain. it comes in waves like the tide and you must be open as a vessel lying on the beach, letting it fill you up and then, retreating, leaving you empty and clear.
