Alfred de Musset Quotes About Wine

Quotes about: Wine

• The fumes of wine fermented in my head; it was one of those moments of intoxication when all that ones sees and hears, speaks to one of the adored.... One would willingly embrace all who smile, and one feels that he is brother of all who live.

  Alfred de Musset

  Brother, Wine, Speak

  Alfred de Musset, Paul de Musset (1908). “The confession of a child of the century tr. by Kendall Warren”

• Partake of love as a temperate man partakes of wine; do not become intoxicated.

  Alfred de Musset

  Wine, Men, Intoxicated

• Take love as a sober man takes wine; do not become a drunkard. If your mistress is sincere and faithful, love her for that; but if she is not, if she is merely young and beautiful, love her for that; if she is agreeable and spirituelle, love her for that; if she is none of these things but merely loves you, love her for that. Love does not come to us every day.

  Alfred de Musset

  Love, Beautiful, Wine

  Alfred de Musset (2012). “The Confession of a Child of the Century”, p.50, tredition

• Oh! my friend, when you feel bursting on your lips the vow of eternal love, do not be afraid to yield, but do not confound wine with intoxication; do not think the cup divine because the draft is of celestial flavor; do not be astonished to find it broken and empty in the evening.

  Alfred de Musset

  Wine, Thinking, Yield
