Summary

This quote suggests that in a challenging situation, the speaker would rather rely on individuals who are experienced and resilient, symbolized by "whiskey drinkers," rather than those who are relatively inexperienced or timid, symbolized by "milk drinkers." The quote implies that, in times of difficulty and pressure (comparable to a third and ten scenario in American football), having individuals with a bold and daring mindset will be more advantageous than those who are hesitant or risk-averse. Ultimately, it highlights the importance of confidence and fortitude in tackling tough situations.

She gave her husband such a night of sexual pleasure that his eyes followed her constantly after that, narrow and hot. He grew molten when she passed near other men, and at night they made their own shaking tent.
