I'm not wild about those twenty-four hour marinades

I’m awfully sorry for people who are taken in by all of today’s dietary mumbo jumbo. They are not getting any enjoyment out of their food.

But I was a pure romantic, and only operating with half my burners turned on.

It's fun to get together and have something good to eat at least once a day. That's what human life is all about - enjoying things.

I think the inner person is the most important.... I would like to see an invention that keeps the mind alert. That's what is important.

Some children like to make castles out of their rice pudding, or faces with raisins for eyes. It is forbidden -- so sternly that, when they grow up, they take a horrid revenge by dying meringues pale blue or baking birthday cakes in the form of horseshoes or lyres or whatnot.

You are the butter to my bread,and the breath to my life
