Ale Quote by Agnes Repplier
“Tea had come as a deliverer to a land that called for deliverance; a land of beef and ale, of heavy eating and abundant drunkenness; of gray skies and harsh winds; of strong-nerved, stout-purposed, slow-thinking men and women. Above all, a land of sheltered homes and warm firesides - firesides that were waiting - waiting for the bubbling kettle and the fragrant breath of tea.”
![“[Tea-masters] have given emphasis to our natural love of simplicity, and shown us the beauty of humility. In fact, through their teachings tea has entered the life of the people.” quote by Kakuzō Okakura](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/278/kakuz-okakura-14816_beauty_tea-masters-have-given-emphasis-to-our-n_1451914.jpg)
