Wine is bottled poetry. - Robert Louis Stevenson

It is one of the worst things of sentiment that the voice grows to be more important than the words, and the speaker than that what is spoken.

I will make you brooches and toys for your delight
Of bird-song at morning and star-shine at night.
I will make a palace fit for you and me
Of green days in forests and blue days at sea.

"An intelligent person, looking out of his eyes and hearkening in his ears, with a smile on his face all the time, will get more true education than many another in a life of heroic vigils".
