Tonic Wine

Famous quotes containing the words tonic and/or wine:

    We need the tonic of wildness,—to wade sometimes in marshes where the bittern and the meadow-hen lurk, and hear the booming of the snipe; to smell the whispering sedge where only some wilder and more solitary fowl builds her nest, and the mink crawls with its belly close to the ground.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things.
    Bible: Hebrew Ecclesiastes 10:19.
