Answer:

"He knew better than to drink and derive"

Step-by-step explanation:

Isaac Newton was known to be a passionately focused introvert who could go without sleep for days and live on bread and wine but refused a glass of wine before formulating the rules for differentiation because he did not want to cloud his thinking.
