Additional quotes by Walter Map

Meum est propositum in taberna mori: </br> Vinum sit appositum morientis ori, </br> Ut dicant cum venerint angelorum chori, </br> Deus sit propitius huic potatori! Poculis accenditur animi lucerna; </br> Cor imbutum nectare volat ad superna: </br> Mihi sapit dulcius vinum in taberna, </br> Quam quod aqua miscuit præsulis pincerna.

The Cistercians...are wholly strange to the use of flesh. Yet they keep pigs to the number of many thousands, and sell the bacon—though perhaps not quite all of it. The heads, legs and feet they neither give away, throw away, nor sell. What becomes of them God knows.
