It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to
drink wine; nor for princes strong
drink: Lest they drink, and
forget the law, and pervert the
judgment of any of the afflicted. Give strong drink unto
him that is ready to perish, and
wine unto those that be of heavy
hearts. Let him drink, and
forget his poverty, and remember
his misery no more.
(Proverbs 31:4-7)

Bible Quotes |
|
Wine is a mocker, strong drink is
raging: and whosoever is deceived
thereby is not wise.
(Proverbs 20:1)
He that loveth pleasure
shall be a poor man: he that
loveth wine and oil shall not be
rich.
(Proverbs 21:17)
Be not among
winebibbers; among riotous eaters
of flesh: For the drunkard and the
glutton shall come to poverty: and
drowsiness shall clothe a man with
rags.
(Proverbs 23:20,21)
Who hath woe? who hath
sorrow? who hath contentions? who
hath babbling? who hath wounds
without cause? who hath redness of
eyes? They that tarry long at
the wine; they that go to seek
mixed wine. Look not thou upon the
wine when it is red, when it
giveth his colour in the cup, when
it moveth itself aright. At the last it biteth
like a serpent, and stingeth like
an adder. Thine eyes shall behold
strange women, and thine heart
shall utter perverse things. Yea, thou shalt be as
he that lieth down in the midst of
the sea, or as he that lieth upon
the top of a mast. They have stricken me,
shalt thou say, and I was not
sick; they have beaten me, and I
felt it not: when shall I awake? I
will seek it yet again.
(Proverbs 23:29-35)
And shall begin to
smite his fellowservants, and to
eat and drink with the drunken;
(Matthew 24:49)
Woe unto them that rise up early
in the morning, that they may
follow strong drink; that continue
until night, till wine inflame
them! And the harp, and the viol,
the tabret, and pipe, and wine,
are in their feasts: but they
regard not the work of the LORD,
neither consider the operation of
his hands. Woe unto them that are
mighty to drink wine, and men of
strength to mingle strong drink:
(Isaiah 5:11,12,22)
Awake, ye drunkards, and weep; and
howl, all ye drinkers of wine,
because of the new wine; for it is
cut off from your mouth.
(Joel 1:5)
Woe unto him that giveth his
neighbour drink, that puttest thy
bottle to him, and makest him
drunken also, that thou mayest
look on their nakedness! Thou art
filled with shame for glory: drink
thou also, and let thy foreskin be
uncovered: the cup of the LORD's
right hand shall be turned unto
thee, and shameful spewing shall
be on thy glory.
(Habakkuk 2:15,16)
But and if that servant
say in his heart, My lord delayeth
his coming; and shall begin to
beat the menservants and maidens,
and to eat and drink, and to be
drunken;
(Luke 12:45)
Let us walk honestly, as in the
day; not in rioting and
drunkenness, not in chambering and
wantonness, not in strife and
envying.
(Romans 13:13)
But now I have written unto you
not to keep company, if any man
that is called a brother be a
fornicator, or covetous, or an
idolater, or a railer, or a
drunkard, or an extortioner; with
such an one no not to eat.
(1 Corinthians 5:11)
Know ye not that the unrighteous
shall not inherit the kingdom of
God? Be not deceived: neither
fornicators, nor idolaters, nor
adulterers, nor effeminate, nor
abusers of themselves with
mankind, Nor thieves, nor
covetous, nor drunkards, nor
revilers, nor extortioners, shall
inherit the kingdom of God.
(1 Corinthians 6:9,10)
For they that sleep
sleep in the night; and they that
be drunken are drunken in the
night.
(1 Thessalonians 5:7)

Inspirational Quotes from Famous People |
Drunkenness does
not create vice; it merely brings
it into view.
--Seneca quotes
(Roman philosopher, mid-1st
century AD)
Drunkenness is temporary suicide:
the happiness that it brings is
merely negative, a momentary
cessation of unhappiness.
- Bertrand
Russell quotes
(English Logician and Philosopher
1872-1970)
Alcohol is perfectly consistent in
its effects upon man. Drunkenness
is merely an exaggeration. A
foolish man drunk becomes maudlin;
a bloody man, vicious; a coarse
man, vulgar.
- Willa Sibert
Cather quotes
(American Author winner of the
Pulitzer Prize, 1873-1947)
Drunkenness is a pair of
spectacles to see the devil and
all his works.
- Proverb quotes
Drunkenness is nothing but
voluntary madness.
--Seneca quotes
(Roman philosopher, mid-1st
century AD)
The best cure for drunkenness is
whilst sober, to observe a drunken
person.
--Chinese Proverbs
quotes
What soberness conceals,
Drunkenness reveals.

Year's Eve, when you get so drunk
you kiss the person you're married
to.
--P. J. O'Rourke
quotes (American
political commentator, Journalist,

Thirst is the end of drinking and
