Famous quotes containing the words grapes and/or wine:
“Let its grapes the morn salute
From a nocturnal root,”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Food probably has a very great influence on the condition of men. Wine exercises a more visible influence, food does it more slowly but perhaps just as surely. Who knows if a well-prepared soup was not responsible for the pneumatic pump or a poor one for a war?”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
