Famous quotes containing the words red, sparkling and/or wines:

    “Take a red book called TELEPHONE,
    size eight by four. There it sits.
    My red book, name, address and number.
    These are all people that I somehow own.
    Yet some of these names are counterfeit.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Thus Satan talking to his neerest Mate
    With Head up-lift above the wave, and Eyes
    That sparkling blaz’d, his other Parts besides
    Prone on the Flood, extended long and large
    Lay floating many a rood, in bulk as huge
    As whom the Fables name of monstrous size,
    Titanian, or Earth-born, that warr’d on Jove,
    Briarios or Typhon, whom the Den
    By ancient Tarsus held, or that Sea-beast
    Leviathan,”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “Mixing one’s wines may be a mistake, but old and new wisdom mix admirably.”
    —Bertolt Brecht (1898–1956)
