Talk:In vino veritas

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] whole edit-summary

“partly reverted: It should be mentioned, that the Greek phrase is attributed to Alcaeus, the reference is not just for calling it a saying, but for the whole expression and, that it's attributed to Pliny the Elder.” —αἰτίας •discussion• 05:10, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Parallel in Talmud

The Talmud states on various occasions: "Nichnas yayin, yatza sod" - "When wine goes in, secrets come out". Later commentators observe that the words yayin (wine) and sod (secret) have the same gematria (numerical value). Any point in including this without falling foul of WP:NOR?
