Famous quotes containing the word food:

    Architecture might be more sportive and varied if every man built his own house, but it would not be the art and science that we have made it; and while every woman prepares food for her own family, cooking can never rise beyond the level of the amateur’s work.
    Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860–1935)
