Famous quotes containing the word drinking:
“Wait a second while I take a swig off this bottle: it’s my true and only Helicon, my Caballine fount, my sole Enthusiasm. Here, drinking, I deliberate, I reason, I resolve and conclude. After the epilogue I laugh, I write, I compose, I drink. Ennius drinking would write, writing would drink.”
—François Rabelais (1494–1553)
“The rapturous, wild, and ineffable pleasure
Of drinking at somebody else’s expense.”

Loped under wires that span the mountain stream.”
