Famous quotes containing the word wine:

    Good wine needs no bush,
    And perhaps products that people really want need no
    hard-sell or soft-sell TV push.
    Why not?
    Look at pot.
    Ogden Nash (1902–1971)

    They are not long, the days of wine and roses:
    Out of a misty dream
    Our path emerges for a while, then closes
    Within a dream.
    Ernest Christopher Dowson (1867–1900)

    when wine redeems the sight,
    Narrowing the mustard scansions of the eyes,
    Hart Crane (1899–1932)
