Wine/professions

Famous quotes containing the words wine and/or professions:

“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)

“All professions are conspiracies against the laity.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
