Wonderful words that add wit and class to every time you raise your glass.

Friends & Friendship: To our best friends, who know the worst about us but refuse to believe it.
Generosity: Life 'em high and drain 'em dry to the guy who says, "My turn to buy!"
Golf: To golf, the most frustrating and masochistic sport in the world, which may be why golf spelled backward in flog.
Happiness: May we be happy and our enemies know it.
Gambling: Life consists not in holding good cards, but playing those you hold well.
Politics & Politicians: To Washington, our country's capital, where the roads, and everything else, go around in circles.

About the Author
William R. Evans III and Andrew Frothingham first combined their talents on And I Quote (St. Martins' Press, 1992, with Ashton Applewhite). Both authors live in New York City.
From Library Journal
These two contemporary collections from The New Yorker 's Frothingham and Evans ( And I Quote , St. Martin's, 1992) will prove useful for any collection. Crisp Toasts lists at least three toasts for more than 100 alphabetically arranged topics, from absent friends to work. Ranging from timely to traditional, most of the toasts are short one-liners, ideal for weddings, christenings, reunions, and retirement dinners. Well-Done Roasts is one of the first collections of roasts for every occasion. Roasts are becoming an ever more popular form of testimonial for everyone from politicians to retired sports heroes, and the authors offer hundreds of friendly tributes disguised as insults, arranged alphabetically from old age to youth. There is even a helpful list of synonyms. This user-friendly, nonsexist manual will keep audiences in stitches. Some contemporary samples: "Those aren't acne scars on his face, he just had a hard time learning to eat with a fork," and "She went to the Tammy Faye Baker cosmetics school."-- Brian E. Coutts, Western Kentucky Univ. Libs., Bowling Green
