Elsinore4u - Classic Toasts

Eat thy bread with joy,
and drink thy wine with a merry heart.
--Ecclesiastes 9:10

Drink is the feast of reason and the flow of soul.
--Alexander Pope

Wine comes in at the mouth
And love comes in at the eye;
That’s all that we will know for truth
Before we grow old and die.
I lift the glass to my mouth,
I look at you and I sigh.
--William Butler Yeats

In water one sees one's own face;
But in wine one beholds the heart of another.
--French proverb

Fill with mingled cream and amber,
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chamber of my brain.
Quaintest thoughts, queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away.
What care I how time advances;
I am drinking ale today.
--Edgar Allan Poe

May the stars carry your sadness away,
May the flowers fill your heart with beauty,
May hope forever wipe away your tears,
And, above all, may silence make you strong.
--Chief Dan George

May the great spirit give you
the strength of eagle's wings,
the faith and courage
to soar to new heights,
and the wisdom of the universe
to take you there.
--Native American

May the long time sun
Shine upon you,
All love surround you,
And the pure light within you
Guide your way on.
