Soup/history

Famous quotes containing the words soup and/or history:

“Food probably has a very great influence on the condition of men. Wine exercises a more visible influence, food does it more slowly but perhaps just as surely. Who knows if a well-prepared soup was not responsible for the pneumatic pump or a poor one for a war?”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)

“In history as in human life, regret does not bring back a lost moment and a thousand years will not recover something lost in a single hour.”
