Why do I want to appear to be drinking more than I am?'' Make it a habit. Men in their cups are fools, more often than not. And it can be wise to look the fool at times.

About This Quote

If you are drinking, why do you want to appear to be drinking more than you are? The “drinking more than I am” quote was said by Bill Clinton. He was talking about men who drink too much, who want to appear to be drinking more than they are. There is no real reason for this statement. Men don’t need to appear sophisticated by drinking alcohol at all times.

Men don’t need to appear sophisticated by drinking alcohol at all times. Men just need their liquor because it helps them relax and have a good time. Men may drink because they are interested in the social aspect of alcohol consumption, if they enjoy the experience of being around people while they drink.

This can be seen as false modesty. But, this quote isn't really about the idea of men trying too hard to appear sophisticated when they are at a bar or club. This quote is about men who are already very civilized and mature men, but still want to appear that they are not civilized because it makes them seem more manly.
