uplifting famous quotes about life

I spoke with Matt about my quotes idea for the cocktail napkins and he felt really positive about it. However, Matt has been researching alcohol advertising laws as his part of the research and unfortunately most of them are unsuitable because they are on the subject of alcohol.
We talked it over and decided that positive, inspirational quotes would have the same impact and would paint the brand in a more positive light. We want people to associate drinking Glava cocktails with these positive and humorous quotations. Here are some that I have found that we could use.....
