Food and eating

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
Food and eating Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Food and eating

1.
Put a knife to thy throat, if you're a man given to appetite.
Bible

2.
The most dangerous food to eat is a wedding cake.
Proverb

3.
We are digging our graves with our teeth.
Moffett, Thomas

4.
He that eats till he is sick must fast till he is well.
Proverb, Hebrew

5.
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

6.
One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.
Woolf, Virginia

7.
Only the pure in heart can make a good soup.
Beethoven, Ludwig Van

8.
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

9.
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

10.
Although there is a great deal of controversy among scientists about the effects of ingested food on the brain, no one denies that you can change your cognition and mood by what you eat.
Winter, Arthur

11.
A cheese may disappoint. It may be dull, it may be naive, it may be oversophisticated. Yet it remains cheese, milk's leap toward immortality.
Fadiman, Clifton

12.
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

13.
The one way to get thin is to re-establish a purpose in life.
Connolly, Cyril

14.
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.

15.
Sadder than destitution, sadder than a beggar is the man who eats alone in public. Nothing more contradicts the laws of man or beast, for animals always do each other the honor of sharing or disputing each other's food.
Baudrillard, Jean

16.
As a child my family's menu consisted of two choices: take it, or leave it.
Hackett, Buddy

17.
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

18.
I would like to find a stew that will give me heartburn immediately, instead of at three o clock in the morning.
Barrymore, John

19.
If you're going to America, bring your own food.
Lebowitz, Fran

20.
For its merit I will knight it, and then it will be Sir-Loin.
Charles II

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

22.
If there were only turnips and potatoes in the world, someone would complain that plants grow the wrong way.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

23.
The act of putting into your mouth what the earth has grown is perhaps your most direct interaction with the earth.
Lappe, Frances Moore

24.
We seldom report of having eaten too little.
Jefferson, Thomas

25.
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

26.
He who eats alone chokes alone.
Proverb, Arabian

27.
Food probably has a very great influence on the condition of men. Wine exercises a more visible influence, food does it more slowly but perhaps just as surely. Who knows if a well-prepared soup was not responsible for the pneumatic pump or a poor one for a war?
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

28.
More die in the United States from too much food that from too little.
Galbraith, John Kenneth

29.
Lunch is for wimps.
Stone, Oliver

30.
One should eat to live, not live to eat.
Franklin, Benjamin

31.
The healthy stomach is nothing if it is not conservative. Few radicals have good digestions.
Butler, Samuel

32.
I judge a restaurant by the bread and by the coffee.
Lancaster, Burt

33.
Choose rather to punish your appetites than be punished by them.
Maximus, Tyrius

34.
There is nothing to which men, while they have food and drink, cannot reconcile themselves.
Santayana, George

35.
It's better that it should make you sick than that you don't eat it at all.
Proverb, Catalan

36.
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.

37.
Gluttony is an emotional escape, a sign something is eating us.
Vries, Peter De

38.
He who is a slave to his stomach seldom worships God.
Saadi

39.
Clearly, some time ago makers and consumers of American junk food passed jointly through some kind of sensibility barrier in the endless quest for new taste sensations. Now they are a little like those desperate junkies who have tried every known drug and are finally reduced to mainlining toilet bowl cleanser in an effort to get still higher.
Bryson, Bill

40.
When a man's stomach is full it makes no difference whether he is rich or poor.
Euripides

41.
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

42.
It is a difficult matter to argue with the belly since it has no ears.
Cato The Elder

43.
Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we may diet.
Kurnitz, Harry

44.
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

45.
God comes to the hungry in the form of food.
Gandhi, Mahatma

46.
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

47.
To eat is to appropriate by destruction.
Sartre, Jean-Paul

48.
Much meat, much disease.
Proverb

49.
A store of grain, Oh king is the best of treasures. A gem put in your mouth will not support life.
Hitopadesa

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''
