Coincidentally, Google’s quote of the day is this:

An alcoholic is someone you don’t like who drinks as much as you do. by Dylan Thomas.

So much of our social discourse runs along these lines: one man’s religious fanatic is another man’s apostate: one man’s childish indulgence is another’s ageless and delightful pursuit: that a vice in one might appear to or in another as a saving grace or a grievous sin.

Yet, how happy to be able to say, I drink for my health. Which is as good an excuse as any.
