Water the Best Drink
Proverbs 20:1
Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whoever is deceived thereby is not wise.


"The best of all drinks for the athlete," says Dr. Richardson, "is pure water. The athletic lower animals — the racehorse, the hound, the lion, the leopard — thrive well on water, because their bodies, like our own, are water engines, as steam engines are, and that, too, almost as simply and purely."
