There are two reasons for drinking: one is when you are thirsty, to cure it; the other, when you are not thirsty to prevent it...prevention is better than cure. (T.L.Peacock)
A statesman is an easy man ,He tells his lie by rote; journalist makes up his lies ,And takes you by the throat; So stay at home and drink you beer ,And let the neighbors vote! (William Butler Yeats)
