Quote for the new T-shirt. Please vote!
We are creating a new T-shirt for TWH and we need your help to decide which quotes we should use. Choose the ones that you like the most (up to 3 please).
1) Alcohol, if taken in sufficient quantities, can give one the illusion of drunkenness. – Oscar Wilde
2) I have enjoyed great health at a great age because every day since I can remember I have consumed a bottle of wine except when I have not felt well. Then I have consumed two bottles. - Bishop of Seville
3) She gets to keep the chalet and the Rolls, I want the Montrachet. - Anonymous
4) What is better than to sit at the end of the day and drink wine with friends, or substitutes for friends? - James Joyce

6) When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading. - Henny Youngman
7) My grandmother is over eighty and still doesn't need glasses. Drinks right out of the bottle. - Henny Youngman

9) Consuming wine in moderation daily will help people to die young as late as possible. - Dr Philip Norrie
10) Always carry a corkscrew and the wine shall provide itself. - Basil Bunting
11) Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut. - Ernest Hemingway
12) Wine improves with age. The older I get, the better I like it. – Anonymous

#1 is great!
10, 12 and 14 look good without being too provactive
I love the #1!
I like 14 personally.
I'm voting for # 8, 2, & 6 in that order. But my favorite will always be “In vino veritas.”
9, 4 & 15 put the grape in the bottle.
6, 13, and 14.
15, 15 & 15!
I like 10 and 14, though 7 is pretty good too!

I vote for 9, 10 and 14. All good quotes!
1, 12 and 10...cin!
2, 9 and 14
# 1, 12 and 15!!
9, 12 and 14 are my favs with 14 being the winner.
I loved 9 and 13 but all were such fun!
I didn't like any of the quotes involving drunkenness. I don't drink wine in order to get drunk. #15 is pretty good. I'd say you need to keep looking.

Wine! Wine is the last thing I shall have on my mind... ... at least that is my plan!
Vin! Pourquoi pas?
I like 1, 2, 6, 7, 11, and 14 - I know you said vote for 3, but I am taking the liberty of also voting for a friend.
14, 1 & 2 are my picks...but you've left out all of the great quotes from Ben Franklin..."Wine is proof that god loves us and wants us to be happy"..& my personal favorite (with a feminine neckline on the tee) "Champagne is the only wine that leaves a woman more beautiful after drinking." Madame Pompadour
This is to me a great idea for a quote:
"I think it is a great error to consider a heavy tax on wines as a tax on luxury. On the contrary, it is a tax on the health of our citizens"
~ Thomas Jefferson
I like #10 and #12 the best
Great Legs,Great Body, and the Wine ain't bad either
These are great!
My favorites: #4, #10, #14
in that order.
I like numbers 6,12, and 14.
I like 2 / 6 or 9.
numbers 11 and 5 are funny with
big letters
8 / 2 / 15 IT SHOULD BE PROVACATIVE AND THOUGHT PROVOKING BUT NOT SNOBBISH
14 and 15 are great
1, 7, and 13 have my vote.
After exhaustive empirical research, I have determined that I am genetically programmed for Pinot Noir.
I teach wine education courses - for which there is an undying thirst!
Michael Donohue
Hi, I like 6 and 12, Also
"Life is too short to drink bad wine"
& the oldie: "A loaf of bread a jug of wine and thou"
Hi from Australia www.southernhighlandfling.com.au
You have a lovely site!
5,12,4 in that order. Bear in mind that there's not much room for writing on a T-shirt -- in this case, shorter quotes are better.
4, 8 & 11 work for me!
Number three and number five!
Nr 15!!! awesome
8,10 and 12 would be my choice.
14 and 10 is great! Like oscar as well!
Oscar Wilde and number 8 are the best for me
Number 10 for me!
i like number 2 and 4
Why don't you just ask "The boss?"
I like #10 & #15
I vote for 3, 6 and 10.
I like #15
1 & 5, are light hearted and funny... I would definately get one of each :)without being offensive or snobbish :) Yummy wine by the way!!!!
I like 5, 12 & 13 in that order. Let me know when you have made a pick and when these are available on the marketplace. Thanks, Dan.
In my opinion the best is number 15 and I Know a phrase that I like a lot...
"Cristo não consagrou a água, o leite ou a coca-cola, ele consagrou o pão e Vinho, como alimentos do corpo e do espÃrito" (Fernando Sabino)in Portuguese.
Trasnlating...
"Christ did not consecrate the water, the milk or the coke, he consecrated the bread and wine as food of the body and spirit".
Annonymous I like 4 and 12 and 15
I still remain for Oscar Wilde
2 & 4
I like #15
I like #10 & #12
Number 4 or the one about champagne.
Can we buy a T-Shirt in Australia?
Burgundy makes you think of silly things, Bordeaux makes you talk of them and Champagne makes you do them. - Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin is my pick of Top 5
Shipping is free for these custom t-shirts.
