Quotes About Appetite

It is hard to provide and cook so simple and clean a diet as will not offend the imagination; but this, I think, is to be fed when we feed the body; they should both sit down at the same table. Yet perhaps this may be done. The fruits eaten temperately need not make us ashamed of our appetites, nor interrupt the worthiest pursuits. But put an extra condiment on your dish, and it will poison you.
~ Henry David Thoreau
Quem percebe o verdadeiro sabor do alimento nunca será um glutão; quem não o percebe não pode deixar de sê-lo
~ Henry David Thoreau
Ich für meinen Teil war nie besonders wählerisch; wenn es nötig wäre, könnte ich eine gebratene Ratte mit Appetit verzehren. Ich bin froh, immer Wasser getrunken zu haben, und das aus dem gleichen Grund, aus dem ich den natürlichen Himmel dem eines Opiumrauchers vorziehe.
~ Henry David Thoreau

Secondly, that what is commonly called love, namely, the desire of satisfying a voracious appetite with a certain quantity of delicate white human flesh, is by no means that passion for which I here contend. This is indeed more properly hunger; and as no glutton is ashamed to apply the word love to his appetite, and to say he LOVES such and such dishes; so may the lover of this kind, with equal propriety, say, he HUNGERS after such and such women.
~ Henry Fielding
She existed in that view wholly for the small house in Chelsea; the moral of which moreover, of course, was that the more one gave oneself the less of one was left.

~ Henry James
dijo Emerson, . Si es así, mi vida, no es más que un gran intestino. No sólo pienso en la comida todo el día, sino que, además, sueño con ella por la noche.

I think maybe when you live with someone who is really very ill for a long time, it somehow gives you more of a greedy appetite for life and maybe, yes, you are less measured in your behaviour than you would otherwise be.
~ Nigella Lawson
When you're a chef, you graze. You never get a chance to sit down and eat. They don't actually sit down and eat before you cook. So when I finish work, the first thing I'll do, and especially when I'm in New York, I'll go for a run. And I'll run 10 or 15k on my - and I run to gain my appetite.
~ Gordon Ramsay

Scientists tend to come in two stripes: those who have tremendous appetite and aptitude for the details, and those who illuminate the big picture.
