“All you need, you think, is a breather, a few minutes standing up at the bar like in the old days, having a harmless bottle of beer. Only the bottle of beer isn't harmless; it's a trigger. It sets off that crazy thing in your mind that made you a dipso in the first place...”
Jonathan Craig, Alley Girl

“could have been chloral,” Steve said. “Chloral hydrate. The stuff they use when they want to give somebody a mickey.”
Jonathan Craig, Junkie! (1952)

“remembered I had chloral in my purse – I take it all the time, for my nerves.”
Jonathan Craig, Junkie! (1952)
