Don't you know there ain't no devil, there's just God when he's drunk.

"Heartattack and Vine", Heartattack and Vine (1980)Tom Waits
There is in all men a demand for the superlative, so much so that the poor devil who has no other way of reaching it attains it by getting drunk.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
The Devil is right at home. The Devil, the Devil himself, is right in the house.
And the Devil came here yesterday. Yesterday the Devil came here. Right here. [crosses himself] And it smells of sulphur still today.
Yesterday, ladies and gentlemen, from this rostrum, the president of the United States, the gentleman to whom I refer as the Devil, came here, talking as if he owned the world. Truly. As the owner of the world.Hugo Chavez
Elmer Gantry was drunk. He was eloquently drunk, lovingly and pugnaciously drunk.
Sinclair Lewis
It would be pleasant to be drunk:
faithless to my tongue and hands,
giving up the boundaries
for the heroic gin.
Dead drunk is the term I think of,
insensible,
neither cool nor warm,
without a head or foot.
To be drunk is to be intimate with a fool.
I will try it shortly.Anne Sexton
Ozzfest needs a good exorcism. No actually there is not devil there. The devil isn't there, the devil has got better things to do, you know.
