High Spirits

"If wine were to disappear from human production, I believe that in the health and intellect of the planet there would be left a void, an absence, a defect much more dreadful than all the excesses and the deviant behaviour for which wine is held responsible. Isn't it reasonable to think that men who never drink wine, whether out of naivety or principle, are imbeciles or hypocrites? A man who drinks only water has a secret to hide from his fellow men."

Charles Baudelaire
