Lewis CarrollWhen Iโm a Duchess,โ she said to herself (not in a very hopeful tone though), โI wonโt have any pepper in my kitchen at all. Soup does very well without. Maybe itโs always pepper that makes people hot-tempered,โ she went on, very much pleased at having found out a new kind of rule, โand vinegar that makes them sourโand camomile that makes them bitterโandโand barley-sugar and such things that make children sweet-tempered. I only wish people knew that; then they wouldnโt be so stingy about it, you knowโ
