->Oh booze, sweet booze. The sweet nectar can be a delicious and wonderful thing, but sometimes it leads you down a dark, destructive path where you wake up with half of your face burned off because the booze screwed with your decision-making skills and you thought it would be a really good idea to eat out [[Creator/ParisHilton Parasite Hilton.]]

->''"Everybody moved to new hot spots- the Jockey Club, the Coconut Grove, the Bombay, and later the Cricket Club, the disco in the Quayside Towers. People called the Quayside Towers the "Quaalude Towers". Quaaludes were the other great drug that people were taking along with coke. Quaaludes were more underground when Andy and I snuck them into the punch in our New York discos. In Miami you'd go out for drinks with a broad, and she'd bring her own Quaaludes. It wasn't like today, where a guy will sneak roofies into some poor broad's drinks so he could have his way with her. Back then broads would knock themselves out on purpose."''

->He had slyly inveigled her up to his flat\\
To view his collection of stamps;\\
And he said as he hastened to put out the cat\\
The wine, his cigar, and the lamps:\\
"Have some madeira, m'dear\\
...\\
Unaware of the wiles of the snake in the grass\\
Of the fate of the maiden who topes\\
She lowered her standards by raising her glass\\
Her courage, her eyes, and his hopes\\
She sipped it, she drank it\\
She drained it, she did\\
And he quietly refilled it again\\
And he said as he secretly carved one more notch\\
On the butt of his gold-handled cane...\\
...\\
Then there flashed through her mind what her mother had said\\
With her ante-penultimate breath:\\
"Oh my child should you look on the wine when 'tis red\\
Be prepared for a fate worse than death!"
