"Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed - Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, 'It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver.'" -Deep Thought, Jack Handy "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." -Benjamin Franklin "The easiest way to spot a wanker in a pub is to look around and find who's drinking a Corona with a slice of lemon in the neck." -Warwick Franks "Make sure that the beer - four pints a week - goes to the troops under fire before any of the parties in the rear get a drop." -Winston Churchill to his Secretary of War, 1944 "We old folks have to find our cushions and pillows in our tankards. Strong beer is the milk of the old." -Martin Luther "Why is American beer served cold? So you can tell it from urine." -David Moulton "I would kill everyone in this room for a drop of sweet beer." -Homer Simpson "She can plan it any way she wants, do anything she wants, as long as I get to pick the beer being served" -Christopher Michels about his wedding last April "I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day." -Frank Sinatra "I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts, and beer." -Abraham Lincoln
