Quote #10
Amory, his head spinning gorgeously, layer upon layer of soft satisfaction spreading over the bruised spots of his spirit, was discoursing volubly on the war. (2.2.222)
It's no surprise that Amory talks about fighting in World War I when he's drunk. The war has no doubt left a deep scar on his mind, and it's reasonable to think that it's the war, and not just Amory's broken engagement with Rosalind, that's at the heart of his drinking problem.
