Food and eating Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Food and eating

1.
When one has tasted it [Watermelon] he knows what the angels eat.
Twain, Mark

2.
The soup is never hot enough if the waiter can keep his thumb in it.
Collier, William

3.
No man is lonely while eating spaghetti; it requires so much attention.
Morley, Christopher

4.
Most of us are either too think to enjoy eating, or too fat to enjoy walking.
Howe, Edgar Watson

5.
God comes to the hungry in the form of food.
Gandhi, Mahatma

6.
The most dangerous food to eat is a wedding cake.
Proverb

7.
We know that every woman wants to be thin. Our images of womanhood are almost synonymous with thinness.
Orbach, Susie

8.
He who cannot eat horsemeat need not do so. Let him eat pork. But he who cannot eat pork, let him eat horsemeat. It's simply a question of taste.
Khrushchev, Nikita

9.
When a man's stomach is full it makes no difference whether he is rich or poor.
Euripides

10.
He who eats alone chokes alone.
Proverb, Arabian

11.
There is such a thing as food and such a thing as poison. But the damage done by those who pass off poison as food is far less than that done by those who generation after generation convince people that food is poison.
Goodman, Paul

12.
Appetite comes with eating; the more one has, the more one would have.
Proverb, French

13.
Upscale people are fixated with food simply because they are now able to eat so much of it without getting fat, and the reason they don't get fat is that they maintain a profligate level of calorie expenditure. The very same people whose evenings begin with melted goats cheese... get up at dawn to run, break for a mid-morning aerobics class, and watch the evening news while racing on a stationary bicycle.
Ehrenreich, Barbara

14.
It is a difficult matter to argue with the belly since it has no ears.
Cato The Elder

15.
It ain't what you eat, but the way how you chew it.
Mcclinton, Delbert

16.
Taking food alone tends to make one hard and coarse. Those accustomed to it must lead a Spartan life if they are not to go downhill. Hermits have observed, if for only this reason, a frugal diet. For it is only in company that eating is done justice; food must be divided and distributed if it is to be well received.
Benjamin, Walter

17.
There is only one thing harder than looking for a dewdrop in the dew, and that is fishing for a clam in the clam chowder.
Proverb, New England

18.
I judge a restaurant by the bread and by the coffee.
Lancaster, Burt

19.
The flesh endures the storms of the present alone; the mind, those of the past and future as well as the present. Gluttony is a lust of the mind.
Hobbes, Thomas

20.
I will not eat oysters. I want my food dead -- not sick, not wounded -- dead.
Allen, Woody

21.
Never eat anything you can't lift.
Piggy, Miss

22.
Worthless people love only to eat and drink; people of worth eat and drink only to live.
Socrates

23.
It is the mark of a mean, vulgar and ignoble spirit to dwell on the thought of food before meal times or worse to dwell on it afterwards, to discuss it and wallow in the remembered pleasures of every mouthful. Those whose minds dwell before dinner on the spit, and after on the dishes, are fit only to be scullions.
Francis De Sales, St.

24.
Square meals often make round people.
Cossman, E. Joseph

25.
Edible. Good to eat and wholesome to digest, as a worm to a toad, a toad to a snake, a snake to a pig, a pig to a man, and a man to a worm.
Bierce, Ambrose

26.
A store of grain, Oh king is the best of treasures. A gem put in your mouth will not support life.
Hitopadesa

27.
It's better that it should make you sick than that you don't eat it at all.
Proverb, Catalan

28.
You can travel fifty thousand miles in America without once tasting a piece of good bread.
Miller, Henry

29.
We are digging our graves with our teeth.
Moffett, Thomas

30.
Eating is not merely a material pleasure. Eating well gives a spectacular joy to life and contributes immensely to goodwill and happy companionship. It is of great importance to the morale.
Schiaparelli, Elsa

31.
The act of putting into your mouth what the earth has grown is perhaps your most direct interaction with the earth.
Lappe, Frances Moore

32.
I told my doctor I get very tired when I go on a diet, so he gave me pep pills. Know what happened? I ate faster.
Lewis, Joe E.

33.
Roast Beef, medium, is not only a food. It is a philosophy. Seated at Life's Dining Table, with the menu of Morals before you, your eye wanders a bit over the entr?es, the hors d'oeuvres, and the things ? la though you know that Roast Beef, medium, is safe and sane, and sure.
Ferber, Edna

34.
Coffee should be black as Hell, strong as death, and sweet as love.
Proverb, Turkish

35.
Gluttony is the source of all our infirmities and the fountain of all our diseases. As fire extinguished by an excess of fuel, so is the natural health of the body destroyed by an intemperate diet.
Burton

36.
For much of the female half of the world, food is the first signal of our inferiority. It lets us know that our own families may consider female bodies to be less deserving, less needy, less valuable.
Steinem, Gloria

37.
A gourmet who thinks of calories is like a tart, who looks at her watch.
Beard, James

38.
A lot of Thanksgiving days have been ruined by not carving the turkey in the kitchen.
Hubbard, Kin

39.
Make food a very incidental part of your life by filling your life so full of meaningful things that you'll hardly have time to think about food.
Pilgrim, Peace

40.
We seldom report of having eaten too little.
Jefferson, Thomas

41.
More die in the United States from too much food that from too little.
Galbraith, John Kenneth

42.
It has been an unchallengeable American doctrine that cranberry sauce, a pink goo with overtones of sugared tomatoes, is a delectable necessity of the Thanksgiving board and that turkey is uneatable without it. There are some things in every country that you must be born to endure; and another hundred years of general satisfaction with Americans and America could not reconcile this expatriate to cranberry sauce, peanut butter, and drum majorettes.
Cooke, Alistair

43.
The food here is so tasteless you could eat a meal of it and belch and it wouldn't remind you of anything.
Foxx, Redd

44.
He that eats till he is sick must fast till he is well.
Proverb, Hebrew

45.
As a child my family's menu consisted of two choices: take it, or leave it.
Hackett, Buddy

46.
If you're going to America, bring your own food.
Lebowitz, Fran

47.
Put a knife to thy throat, if you're a man given to appetite.
Bible

48.
We may find in the long run that tinned food is a deadlier weapon than the machine-gun.
Orwell, George

49.
Don't dig your grave with your knife and fork.
Proverb, English

50.
Avoid fresh meats, which angry up the blood. If your stomach disputes you, lie down and pacify it with cool thoughts. Keep the juices flowing by jangling around gently as you move. Go very light in the vices such as carrying on in society. The social ramble ain't restful. Don't look back. Someone might be gaining on you.
Paige, Leroy ''Satchel''
