Famous quotes containing the words spanish and/or cuisine:

    It’s like a jumble of huts in a jungle somewhere. I don’t understand how you can live there. It’s really, completely dead. Walk along the street, there’s nothing moving. I’ve lived in small Spanish fishing villages which were literally sunny all day long everyday of the week, but they weren’t as boring as Los Angeles.
    Truman Capote (1924–1984)

    Thank God for the passing of the discomforts and vile cuisine of the age of chivalry!
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
