“Tea! thou soft, sober, sage and venerable liquid;- thou female tongue-running, smile-smoothing, heart-opening, wink-tippling cordial, to whose glorious insipidity I owe the happiest moment of my life, let me fall prostrate”
Colley Cibber
“Tea! Thou soft, thou sober, sage, and venerable liquid, thou innocent pretence for bringing the wicked of both sexes together in a morning; thou female tongue-running, smile-smoothing, heart-opening, wink-tipping cordial, to whose glorious insipidity I owe the happiest moment of my life, let me fall prostrate thus, and adore thee.”
“The industrial production data ... was sort of a sober warning about the softness in the industrial sector of our economy.”
Dana Johnson
“I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly.”
Winston Churchill
“What soberness conceals, Drunkenness reveals”
Proverb
“Being sober on a bus is, like, totally different than being drunk on a bus.”
Ozzy Osbourne
“The South is dry and will vote dry. That is, everybody sober enough to stagger to the polls will.”
Will Rogers
