Modern Times

That was the trouble with being a writer, that was the main trouble -- leisure time, excessive leisure time. You had to wait around for the buildup until you could write and while you were waiting you went crazy, and while you were going crazy you drank and the more you drank the crazier you got. There was nothing glorious about the life of a writer or the life of a drinker.
- Charles Bukowski
