Eight quotes by W.C. Fields

William Claude Dukenfield (January 29, 1880 – December 25, 1946), better known as W. C. Fields, was an American comedian, actor, juggler and writer. Fields created a comic persona: a misanthropic and hard-drinking egotist who remained a sympathetic character despite his snarling contempt for dogs, children, and women.
 'Twas a woman who drove me to drink, and I never had the courtesy to thank her for it.

 After two days in hospital I took a turn for the nurse. 
[+]
 Always carry a flagon of whiskey in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake. 
[+]
 Everybody has to believe in something. I believe I'll have another drink. 
[+]
 I never met a kid I liked. 
[+]
 Start every day with a smile and get it over with. 
[+]
 There comes a time in the affairs of man when he must take the bull by the tail and face the situation. 
[+]
 What contemptible scoundrel has stolen the cork from my lunch?
