A healthy dose of wine

Be it physical or mental, health and wine go together. Or so we would like to think/hope:

“Wine, when taken without excess, is a tonic for the muscles and a stimulant for the mind.” — Dr. Georges-Fernand-Isidor Widal (left)

“Wine was born, not invented … like an old friend, it continues to surprise us in new and unexpected ways.” — Dr. Salvatore P. Lucia

“The miracle of wine lies in the fact that makes a man what he should always be, friend of other men.” — E. Engel

What a man calls his ‘conscience’ is merely the mental action that follows a sentimental reaction after too much wine or love.” — Helen Rowland, “A Guide to Men,” 1922
