ALERT: Real Dangers of Arsenic in Your Food: What can you do?
And, with thanks to Winemoto for compiling a list of quotes about wine, here are some choice thoughts by some very famous thinkers about their beverage of choice:
-
-
- “Wine is sunlight held together by water.” – Galileo
- “In Europe we thought of wine as something as healthy and normal as food and also a great giver of happiness and well being and delight. Drinking wine was not a snobbism nor a sign of sophistication nor a cult; it was as natural as eating and to me as necessary.” — Ernest Hemingway
- “Language is wine upon the lips.” – Virginia Woolf
- “Wine is bottled poetry.” – Robert Louis Stevenson
- “In victory, you deserve champagne. In defeat you need it.” ― Napoleon Bonaparte
- “Music is the wine which inspires one to new generative processes, and I am Bacchus who presses out this glorious wine for mankind and makes them spiritually drunken.” – Ludwig van Beethoven
- “What though youth gave love and roses, Age still leaves us friends and wine.” – Thomas Moore
- “Music is the wine that fills the cup of silence.” –Robert Fripp
- “Give me books, French wine, fruit, fine weather and a little music played out of doors by somebody I do not know.” ― John Keats
- “I regard those as wise who employ old wine freely and study old stories.” — Plautus (Titus Maccius Plautus), Roman playwright, 254-184 B.C
