Doc: In vino veritas. / Wine loosens the tongue.
Ringo: Age quod agis. / Pay attention to what you are doing.
Doc: Credat Iudaeus Apella, non ego. / Tell it to the Marines, not me.
Ringo: Eventus stultorum magister. / Fools must be taught by experience.
Doc: In pace requiescat! / Rest in peace!

I would add that "In Vino Veritas" is often translated as "In Wine there is Truth" -- meaning that not only that the tongue is loosened, but that what is said is true, even though the person might have been afraid to say that truth without alcohol.
