Quotes About Diminutives

I hate 'foodie' because it's cute, like pretty much all diminutives associated with eating. 'Veggies,' 'sammies,' 'parm.' I eat food, and I cook it: it's for eating, preferably with friends, and I don't make a fetish out of it.
~ Steve Albini
And the new plants, still awkward in their soil,The lovely diminutives.I could watch! I could watch!I saw the separateness of all things!
~ Theodore Roethke
