Famous quotes containing the words alcohol and/or content:
“Some parents feel that if they introduce their children to alcohol gradually in the home environment, the children will learn to use alcohol in moderation. Im not sure thats such a good idea.

Second, introducing alcohol to a child suggests that you condone drinkingeven to the point where you want to teach your child how to drink.”

“For the first time Im content to see
What poor mortar and bricks
I have to build with, knowing that I can
Never in seventy years be more a man
Than now a sack of meal upon two sticks.”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
