“We drank our coffee the Russian way. That is to say we had vodka before it and vodka afterwards.”
― Philip Sington, The Valley of Unknowing

“The hallway beyond was filled with males of the house, the Brothers and other fighters and Manny sitting on the floor with their backs to the bare walls, their legs stretched out, propped up, crossed at the knees or crossed at the ankles.

Apparently there had been quite a bit of drinking going on, bottles of vodka and whiskey littered around them, glasses in hands or on thighs.

"This is NOT as pathetic as it looks," her Butch pointed out.

"Liar," V muttered, "It so fucking is. I think I'm going to start knitting for reals.”

“Vladimir leaned forward. â€�Never dilute vodka. Is sin.”
― Jennifer Lane, On Best Behavior

“Ivanov: Gentlemen, you've again set up a drinking shop in my study... I have asked each and every one of you a
thousand times not to do that...

Look now, you've spilt vodka on a paper... and there are crumbs... and gherkins...

It's disgusting!”
― Anton Chekhov, Ivanov

“Jazz and vodka, the fuel of resistance.”
― Rawi Hage, Carnival

“I really hate that I need my glasses while using my laptop. What I hate even more is that I need those glasses to be full of vodka at all times.

“As the Siberian saying goes: One hundred versts (roughly a hundred miles) is no distance. A hundred rubles isn't worthwhile money. And a hundred grams of vodka just makes you thirsty.”
― Farley Mowat, The Siberians

“You're the measure of my true decline. Your home isn't in the underworld, you live in the back room of the liquor store. My eternally hung-over angel, my Satan crawling like an amber worm from a bottle of Zoladkowa Gorzka.”
― Jerzy Pilch, The Mighty Angel

“At the first such gathering, I politely sat with them for half an hour, drank some vodka, and even recited a toast about how great it was that Gulya had such great friends. This proved to be a tactical error, since afterward Gulya wanted me to drink vodka and recite toasts with them every night, which was not compatible with my program of study of the great Uzbek language.”
― Elif Batuman, The Possessed: Adventures With Russian Books and the People Who Read Them

“Wine and tobacco destroy the individuality. After a cigar or a glass of vodka you are no longer Peter Sorin, but Peter Sorin plus somebody else. Your ego breaks in two: you begin to think of yourself in the third person.”
― Anthon Chekhov

“I pawned the remote to my misery,
trading it in for liquor that was cheap;
screwdrivers for my vitamin c,
and a little bloodstream to my IV,
helping to soothe my lunacy”

“Once in a very blue moon, John Tallow imagined his younger self standing down the timeline of his present life, bare toes curling in teenage beach sand, looking ahead to today and watching his future life collapse in on itself like a dying star. His future life becoming small and dark and dense, its gravity apparently grim and inescapable.

Once in a very blue moon, John Tallow spent some cash on a bottle of vodka and drank it at home within an hour.”
― Warren Ellis

“It's super cloudy right now but I think I can see the northern lights from my room. Another observation: Every light is a strobe light, if you just blink fast enough, and drink enough vodka.

“I hate vodka. It is the second worst thing to have come out of Russia, after communism - which isn't Russian anyway, Karl Marx was Russian.”
― Param Vyas

“We grab handfuls of bottles and climb up onto the roof of the house. She stumbles and her foot slips into the gutter sopped with dead leaves. I grab her wrists and pull her clear â€� sure, she's not the person I'd choose to do this with, but she's my only option so I might as well be nice. Plus I don't want her to drop the vodka.”
― Kirsty Logan, The Rental Heart and Other Fairytales

“Nel mio paese, la vodka non porta alcuna gioia. Porta abbruttimento, rimorso, depressione. Distrugge ogni cosa.”
― Nikolai Maslov, Siberia

“Vodka is like water, but with consequences.”
― Tom Rachman

“You never know what the vodka will bring,â€� I laughed.
“Oh, like the time you caught my hair on fire at the candlelight party in Mel’s basement! That was the craziest thing that I ever had happen to me. If you hadn’t switched to water, I would have been bald!�
