To turn water into wine, and what is common into what is holy, is indeed the glory of Christianity.
Frederick William Robertson

Too much and too little wine. Give him none, he cannot find truth; give him too much, the same.
Blaise Pascal

Truth comes out in wine.
Pliny the Elder

Under the pressure of the cares and sorrows of our mortal condition, men have at all times, and in all countries, called in some physical aid to their moral consolations - wine, beer, opium, brandy, or tobacco.
Edmund Burke

Very good wine was bought at ten pounds per pipe, the contract price; but the superior quality was fifteen pounds; and some of this was not much inferior to the best London Madeira.
William Bligh

We are all mortal until the first kiss and the second glass of wine.
Eduardo Galeano

We are born at a given moment, in a given place and, like vintage years of wine, we have the qualities of the year and of the season of which we are born. Astrology does not lay claim to anything more.
Carl Jung

We have found that morals are not, like bacon, to be cured by hanging; nor, like wine, to be improved by sea voyages; nor, like honey, to be preserved in cells.
William Taylor

We sat around on a hotel balcony with a bottle of wine and tried to figure out how you would go about blowing up a planet. That's the kind of conversations science fiction writers have when they get together. We don't talk about football or anything like that.
Kevin J. Anderson

What a man calls his "conscience" is merely the mental action that follows a sentimental reaction after too much wine or love.
Helen Rowland

What I do and what I dream include thee, as the wine must taste of its own grapes.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning

What I like to drink most is wine that belongs to others.
Diogenes

What though youth gave love and roses, Age still leaves us friends and wine.
Thomas More

When I put my nose in a glass, it's like tunnel vision. I move into another world, where everything around me is just gone, and every bit of mental energy is focused on that wine.
Robert M. Parker, Jr.

Whoever would have guessed that in the land of cheap sausages and mashed potatoes there could be such a change which would actually bring the French from Paris every weekend to invade Britain en masse to eat great food and drink great wine.
Robin Leach

Why do you have to retire at 65? Why can't you start at 70? You know, like wine. Why can't music be that way? My new band, we're playing stuff that's never been done before.
Herbie Mann

Wine and cheese are ageless companions, like aspirin and aches, or June and moon, or good people and noble ventures.
M. F. K. Fisher

Wine comes in at the mouth And love comes in at the eye; That's all we shall know for truth Before we grow old and die.
William Butler Yeats

Wine gives a man nothing... it only puts in motion what had been locked up in frost.
Samuel Johnson

Wine has been with civilized man from the beginning.
Robert Mondavi
