    Don’t drink alone, Scarlett. People always find out and it ruins your reputation.
    Sidney Howard (1891–1939)

    In vain thou kindlest all thy smoky fire,
    For virtue hath this better lesson taught,
    Within myself to seek my only hire,
    Desiring nought but how to kill desire.
    —Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)

    As God is my witness, they’re not going to lick me. I’m going to live through this and when it’s all over, I’ll never be hungry again. No, nor any of my folks. If I have to lie, steal, cheat or kill, as God is my witness, I’ll never be hungry again!
    —Sidney Howard (1891–1939)
