Quote by Joe E. Lewis

A man is never drunk if he can lay on the floor without holding on.

A man is never drunk if he can lay on the floor without hold

Summary

This quote suggests that the true measure of being drunk is not how much alcohol one consumes, but rather the loss of control over one's body. If a person is able to lie on the floor without needing to hold on for support, it implies that they still have some level of physical stability and control. In other words, the quote implies that as long as a person can maintain their balance and composure, they are not considered truly intoxicated.

It is impossible for capitalism to survive, primarily because the system of capitalism needs some blood to suck. Capitalism used to be like an eagle, but now it's more like a vulture. It used to be strong enough to go and suck anybody's blood whether they were strong or not. But now it has become more cowardly, like the vulture, and it can only suck the blood of the helpless. As the nations of the world free themselves, the capitalism has less victims, less to suck, and it becomes weaker and weaker. It's only a matter of time in my opinion before it will collapse completely.
