Abraham Cowley Quotes

Partying is such sweet sorrow.

If a man rejoice not in his drinking, he is mad; for in drinking it's possible ... to fondle breasts, and to caress well tended locks, and there is dancing withal, and oblivion of woe.

The pleasure we hold in esteem for the course of our lives ought to have a greater share of our time dedicated to it; we should refuse no occasion nor omit any opportunity of drinking, and always have it in our minds.

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.

And the small ripple spilt upon the beach Scarcely o'erpass'd the cream of your champagne, When o'er the brim the sparkling bumpers reach, That spring-dew of the spirit! the heart's rain! Few things surpass old wine; and they may preach Who please,—the more because they preach in vain,— Let us have wine and women, mirth and laughter, Sermons and soda-water the day after.

Let us have wine and women, mirth and laughter, sermons and soda water the day after.

I enjoy seeing people have fun.

I just love to see people having a good time.

Oh Cup-bearer, set my glass afire with the light of wine!

Fill the cup, and fill the can: Have a rouse before the morn: Every moment dies a man, Every moment one is born.

I drink to the general joy o’ the whole table." Macbeth

Fill the bowl with rosy wine, around our temples roses twine, And let us cheerfully awhile, like wine and roses, smile.

Let us have wine and woman, mirth and laughter, Sermons and soda water the day after. Man, being reasonable, must get drunk; The best of life is but intoxication: Glory, the grape, love, gold, in these are sunk The hopes of all men, and of every nation; Without their sap, how branchless were the trunk Of life's strange tree, so fruitful on occasion: But to return--Get very drunk; and when You wake with head-ache, you shall see what then.

Let there be dancing in the streets, drinking in the saloons, and necking in the parlor.

Everybody who knows us knows we always have a good time.

If one oversteps the bounds of moderation, the greatest pleasures cease to please.

I've got a lot of songs about having fun and partying, but it's a lot of work.

Gee, what a terrific party. Later on we'll get some fluid and embalm each other.

I have no guilt about any of my pleasures.

I love parties. I love a good time.

They are not long, the days of wine and roses.

We meet a lot of people, we drink lots of stuff and have lots of fun.
