Quotes- "Am I having a drink every night? No, not at all. But it can be a good, sick feeling coming into a place (party). Everybody knows you. You're in front of the line. People hand you free cocktails. Lots of women are around. How can that not be a good feeling?"
- "I'm tired of that whole sad-person image I've gotten, like 'Oh, Eddie just sits in his room crying and has no friends, his life is the pits, and he's going to kill himself.' It's just so far-fetched from who I am."
