Famous quotes containing the word food:

    Lead bullets flattened by human teeth have been found on the camp site. Soldiers who had been caught stealing food from nearby farms customarily chewed on a bullet as the lash was laid on their bare backs.
    —For the State of New Jersey, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    Who doth ambition shun,
    And loves to live i’ th’ sun,
    Seeking the food he eats,
    And pleased with what he gets,
    Come hither, come hither, come hither!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    From my experience with wild apples, I can understand that there may be reason for a savage’s preferring many kinds of food which the civilized man rejects. The former has the palate of an outdoor man. It takes a savage or wild taste to appreciate a wild fruit.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
