  There is no cure 'gainst age but it. and

  A hearty medicine 'gainst the cold.

• Wine give strenght to weary men. and
  And wine can of their wits the wise beguile.
  Make the sage frolic, and the serious smile. and
  Let those who drink not, but austerely dine,
  Dry up in law; the muses smell of wine. and
  No poem was ever written by a drinker of water. and
  Bacchus opens the gate of the heart. and
  Might to inspire new hopes and powerful
  To drown the bitterness of cares.

• When we are consciously aware of being used as broken bread and poured out wine, we have yet another level to reach - a level where all awareness of ourselves and what God is doing through us is completely eliminated.

• Creatures are cups. The sciences and the arts and all branches of knowledge are inscriptions around the outside of the cups. When a cup shatters, the writing can no longer be read. The wine's the thing! The wine that's held in the mold of these physical cups. Drink the wine and know what lasts and what to love. The man who truly asks must be sure of two things: One, that he's mistaken in what he's doing or thinking now. And two, that there is a wisdom he doesn't know yet. Asking is half of knowing.

  Rumi

• People meet writers and are bowled over when the writer is friendly to them and invites them to his house for a glass of wine or to shoot up heroin or whatever they do, and they talk their heads off, and a year later it comes out in a book, and there follow years of bitter and fruitless litigation, and that is why you should always keep a writer at arm's length.
