Words of Wisdom

“For reasons known only to barkeeps and their ancient patrons, a proper pousse café should contain seven, five, or three, contrasting rings of different colored liqueurs. Just why these numerals are sacred we have never quite learned — any more than why seven and eleven count profitably on the first roll of dice, or why folk like Haile Selassie had three-decker parasols.”
— Charles H. Baker, Jr.The Gentleman's Companion
