Quotes by Iain Gately  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Eagerness in drinking is a practice injurious to the partaker. Do not haste to mischief, my friend. Your drink is not being taken from you. It is given you, and waits you.”
Iain Gately, Drink: A Cultural History of Alcohol

“The problem of Indian drinking worsened as spirits became ubiquitous in colonial America. Since the native tribes had no place for alcoholic drinks in their cultures or diets”
Iain Gately, Drink: A Cultural History of Alcohol

“The intransigence of immigrant voters was not the only obstacle temperance reformers faced at the polls. American elections were notoriously wet events. Just as Athenian citizens in the days of Plato had received free wine on important civic occasions”
Iain Gately, Drink: A Cultural History of Alcohol
