Sam Sykes
“Wine is a drink for assholes.
Now, don't get me wrong, I know many fine wine drinkers. I count them among some of my oldest and dearest friends. That doesn't mean they aren't assholes. though.
Not that whiskey isn't a drink for assholes, too, but whiskey is for honest assholes. Whiskey is a drink that doesn't lie-within one sip of it, you know where it came from, how much it's worth, and whether or not you're going to survive the night with it. Wine is for an entirely different kind of asshole,
With whiskey, you fight and, if the company is nice, you make up. With wine, you mostly spend a lot of time talking.”
Sam Sykes, Ten Arrows of Iron

Alistair Moffat
“Only time and whisky seemed to help.”
Alistair Moffat, Between Britain: Walking the History of England and Scotland
