1 Esdras 3:20-22
Revised Standard Version
20 It turns every thought to feasting and mirth, and forgets all sorrow and debt. 21 It makes all hearts feel rich, forgets kings and satraps, and makes every one talk in millions.[a] 22 When men drink they forget to be friendly with friends and brothers, and before long they draw their swords.
