At the punch-bowl's brink, let the thirsty think, what they say in Japan: first the man takes a drink, then the drink takes a drink, then the drink takes the man!
First you take a drink, then the drink takes a drink, then the drink takes you.
Wine is the drink of the gods, milk the drink of babes, tea the drink of women, and water the drink of beasts.

You know what I have noticed? And this is really sad. Flying first class is less scary than flying coach.

My body is weird. I can't drink strong drinks. I can't even drink cough medicine - I used to cry when my mom forced me. I don't drink alcohol.
Don't drink on an empty stomach: the main point of the refreshment is the enhancement of food. Don't drink if you have the blues: it's a junk cure. Drink when you are in a good mood. Cheap booze is a false economy. It's not true that you shouldn't drink alone: these can be the happiest glasses you ever drain.

(If you really don't remember, that's an even worse sign.)

Next thing you know, I'm buck naked, standing on a coffee table, with a cowboy hat.
