You first parents of the human race...who ruined yourself for an apple, what might you have done for a truffled turkey?

To know how to eat well, one must first know how to wait.

Poultry is for the cook what canvas is for a painter, or the cap of Fortunatus for a conjurer.

I am not accustomed to take my wine in pills.

Beasts feed. Man eats. Only the man of intellect knows how to eat.

Cooking is one of the oldest arts and one which has rendered us the most important service in civic life.
