I have been instrumental in banning bottled water on the set. It hasn't gone that well with the crew... so I replaced it with tequila.

The more I see of democracy the more I dislike it. It just brings everything down to the mere vulgar level of wages and prices, electric light and water closets, and nothing else.
David Herbert Lawrence, English Writer (1885-1930)

Wherever we've travelled in this great land of ours, we've found that people everywhere are about 90% water.
David Letterman, American Comedian (1947-  )
Water is free of charge. Why then do people drink Evian?
Richard Levin, American Economist
We frequently define an acid or a base as a substance whose aqueous solution gives, respectively, a higher concentration of hydrogen ion or of hydroxide ion than that furnished by pure water. This is a very one sided definition.
Gilbert Newton Lewis, American Scientist (1875-1946)
Whenever someone asks me if I want water with my Scotch, I say I'm thirsty, not dirty.
Joe E. Lewis, American Comedian
Just as the water of a river near its mouth, in its final form, is composed largely of many tributaries, so an idea, in its final form, is composed largely of later additions.
Willy Ley, German Writer (1906-1969)
Into this pour the purified juice: and put it into a pan of water come almost to a boil and continue nearly in the state of boiling until the juice is found to be the consistency of a thick syrup when cold. It is then when cold, to be corked up in a bottle for use.
James Lind, Scottish Scientist
The environmental benefits of hydrogen are also outstanding. When used as an energy source, hydrogen produces no emissions besides water. Zero polluting emissions, an amazing advance over the current sources of energy that we use.
Dan Lipinski, American Politician (1966-  )
My suggestion is that we should first work to ensure the Third World has clean drinking water and sanitation.
Bjorn Lomborg, Danish Scientist (1965-  )
The obvious issue is providing clean drinking water and sanitation to every single human being on earth at the cost of little more than one year of the Kyoto treaty.
Bjorn Lomborg, Danish Scientist (1965-  )
There are moments in life, when the heart is so full of emotion That if by chance it be shaken, or into its depths like a pebble Drops some careless word, it overflows, and its secret, Spilt on the ground like water, can never be gathered together.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, American Poet (1807-1882)
Once I showed up at my sister's with a baby rabbit I had bought from some children because its ears were cold. I put the rabbit on a hot water bottle and massaged its ears for quite a while. After all, I knew that all healthy animals had warm ears.
