“Next to music, beer was best.”
“Books and beer are the best and worst defense.”
“Beer dulls a memory, brand sets it burning, but wine is the best for a sore heart's yearning.”
“That was the thing with the off-worlders. Sometimes they came off as so ancient and knowledgeable, and the next they were ordering pizza and a beer.”
“The best rulers are scarcely known by their subjects;The next best are loved and praised;The next are feared;The next despised:They have no faith in their people,And their people become unfaithful to them.When the best rulers achieve their purposeTheir subjects claim the achievement as their own.”
“What is best in music is not to be found in the notes.”
