Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin Alcohol Quotations

Alcohol carries the pleasures of the palate to their highest degree.

A meal without wine is like a day without sun

L'alcool est le monarque des liquides, et porte au dernier degre l'exaltation palatale. Alcohol is the prince of liquids, and carries the palate to its highest pitch of exaltation.

A man who was fond of wine was offered some grapes at dessert after dinner. "Much obliged," said he, pushing the plate aside, "I am not accustomed to take my wine in pills."

Alcohol is the monarch of liquids.
