Motivational Quotes
Food and eating
Hors d'oeuvres have always a pathetic interest for me; they remind me of one's childhood that one goes through wondering what the next course is going to be like -- and during the rest of the menu one wishes one had eaten more of the hors d'oeuvres.
Best Quotes about Food and eating
The one way to get thin is to re-establish a purpose in life.
Connolly, Cyril
He who is a slave to his stomach seldom worships God.
Saadi
Coffee should be black as Hell, strong as death, and sweet as love.
Proverb, Turkish
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
Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we may diet.
Kurnitz, Harry
The soup is never hot enough if the waiter can keep his thumb in it.
Collier, William
One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.
Woolf, Virginia
It isn't so much what's on the table that matters, as what's on the chairs.
Gilbert, W. S.
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.
Lunch is for wimps.
Stone, Oliver
A good meal ought to begin with hunger.
Proverb, French
If there were only turnips and potatoes in the world, someone would complain that plants grow the wrong way.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.
Put a knife to thy throat, if you're a man given to appetite.
Bible
A woman should never be seen eating or drinking, unless it be lobster salad and Champagne, the only true feminine and becoming viands.
Byron, Lord
The act of putting into your mouth what the earth has grown is perhaps your most direct interaction with the earth.
Lappe, Frances Moore
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
No man is lonely while eating spaghetti; it requires so much attention.
Morley, Christopher
We may find in the long run that tinned food is a deadlier weapon than the machine-gun.
Orwell, George
A lot of Thanksgiving days have been ruined by not carving the turkey in the kitchen.
Hubbard, Kin
Seven's a banquet nine a brawl.
Proverb
Choose rather to punish your appetites than be punished by them.
Maximus, Tyrius
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
There is nothing to which men, while they have food and drink, cannot reconcile themselves.
Santayana, George
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
Yogi ordered a pizza. The waitress asked How many pieces do you want your pie cut? Yogi responded, Four. I don't think I could eat eight.
Berra, Yogi
A gourmet is just a glutton with brains.
Haberman Jr., Phillip H.
We seldom report of having eaten too little.
Jefferson, Thomas
I would like to find a stew that will give me heartburn immediately, instead of at three o clock in the morning.
Barrymore, John
Square meals often make round people.
Cossman, E. Joseph
If you're going to America, bring your own food.
Lebowitz, Fran
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
One should eat to live, not live to eat.
Franklin, Benjamin
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
More die in the United States from too much food that from too little.
Galbraith, John Kenneth
For its merit I will knight it, and then it will be Sir-Loin.
Charles II
Hors d'oeuvres have always a pathetic interest for me; they remind me of one's childhood that one goes through wondering what the next course is going to be like -- and during the rest of the menu one wishes one had eaten more of the hors d'oeuvres.
Munro, Hector Hugh
Only the pure in heart can make a good soup.
Beethoven, Ludwig Van
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
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''
We know that every woman wants to be thin. Our images of womanhood are almost synonymous with thinness.
Orbach, Susie
I found there was only one way to look thin, hang out with fat people.
Dangerfield, Rodney
Lunch kills half of Paris, supper the other half.
Montesquieu, Charles De
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
As a child my family's menu consisted of two choices: take it, or leave it.
Hackett, Buddy
It's better that it should make you sick than that you don't eat it at all.
Proverb, Catalan
Don't dig your grave with your knife and fork.
Proverb, English
Most of us are either too think to enjoy eating, or too fat to enjoy walking.
Howe, Edgar Watson
My body is like breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I don't think about it, I just have it.
Schwarzenegger, Arnold
I will not eat oysters. I want my food dead -- not sick, not wounded -- dead.
Allen, Woody
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
