“It is good even to be a fisherman in summer and in winter.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“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?”
