There is a saying so old that the Romans started it: in vino veritas. It means "in wine the truth" and really means if you want to know what someone is really like, get them drunk and you'll see the real them. I've heard people say that equally telling is "in golf, the truth". Meaning if you want to know what someone's really like, play golf with them. You're virtually guaranteed to see how they cope with adversity, anxiety, stress, opportunity, not to mention, are they cautious, or prone to gambling, and indeed whether you like spending time with them
