Famous quotes containing the words food and/or habits:
“Taking food alone tends to make one hard and coarse. Those accustomed to it must lead a Spartan life if they are not to go downhill. Hermits have observed, if for only this reason, a frugal diet. For it is only in company that eating is done justice; food must be divided and distributed if it is to be well received.”
—Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)
“My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.”
—Errol Flynn (1909–1959)
