Famous quotes containing the word diet:

    “The pills are a mother, but better,
    every color and as good as sour balls.
    I’m on a diet from death.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Literary tradition is full of lies about poverty—the jolly beggar, the poor but happy milkmaid, the wholesome diet of porridge, etc.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “I learned from my two years’ experience that it would cost incredibly little trouble to obtain one’s necessary food, even in this latitude; that a man may use as simple a diet as the animals, and yet retain health and strength.... Yet men have come to such a pass that they frequently starve, not for want of necessaries, but for want of luxuries.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
