Some of his most famous quotes include “I am a drinker with writing problems” and “one drink too many for me and a thousand not enough.” He was also quoted on the Irish people saying “It’s not that [they] are cynical. It’s rather that they have a wonderful lack of respect for everything and everybody.” For a full list of Behan’s most famed wise cracks, see the link below.
