Tips for making a great toast:  Don't get ahead of yourself! When Queen
Louise of Prussia met the conquering Napoleon she drank to him:

“To the health and kindness of
Napoleon the Great. He has taken our states, and soon will return them to
us." Napoleon bowed and replied, "Do not drink it all, Madame."
