Famous quotes containing the word drinks:

    This fellow mixes his metaphors the way a toper does his drinks and, I daresay, gets just as tipsy on them.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    When one drinks with a friend, a thousand cups are not enough, but when there is no meeting of minds, half a sentence can be too much.
    Chinese proverb.

    ‘He hardly drinks a pint of wine,
    And that, I doubt, is no good sign.
    His stomach too begins to fail:
    Last year we thought him strong and hale,
    But now, he’s quite another thing;
    I wish he may hold out till spring.’

    Then hug themselves, and reason thus;
    ‘It is not yet so bad with us.’
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
