    I lift the glass to my mouth,
    I look at, and I sigh.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865-1939) Irish dramatist, poet.

 

“If the eyes are tired and burn, rest them and bathe them in the following simple yet excellent wash: To a quart of soft, boiled water add a tablespoonful of the best Brandy and a teaspoonful of salt.”

Jean-Antheleme Brillat-Savarin (1755-1826)

 

“Champagne's funny stuff. I'm used to whiskey. Whiskey is a slap on the back, and champagne's a heavy mist before my eyes.”
Jimmy Stewart, ‘The Philadelphia Story’

 

“A Georgia peach, a real Georgia peach, a backyard great-grandmother's orchard peach, is as thickly furred as a sweater, and so fluent and sweet that once you bite through the flannel, it brings tears to your eyes.”
Melissa Fay Greene, ‘Praying for Sheetrock’

 

“Their [the waiters'] eyes sparkled and their pencils flew as she proceeded to eviscerate my wallet - pate, Whitstable oysters, a sole, filet mignon, and a favorite salad of the Nizam of Hyderabad made of shredded five-pound notes.”
S. J. Perelman, ‘The Rising Gorge’ (1961)

 

“A cat will look down to a man. A dog will look up to a man. But a pig will look you straight in the eye and see his equal.”
Winston Churchill

 

“The only kind of seafood I trust is the fish stick, a totally featureless fish that doesn’t have eyeballs or fins.”
Dave Barry, Miami Herald Columnist
