Raymond Chandler Quote

Maybe I can quit drinking one of these days. They all say that, don't they?It takes about three years.Three years? He looked shocked. Usually it does. It's a different world. You have to get used to a paler set of colors, a quieter lot of sounds. You have to allow for relapses. All the people you used to know well will get to be just a little strange. You won't even like most of them, and they won't like you too well.
