Quotes About Enjoyment

Spaghetti can be eaten most successfully if you inhale it like a vacuum cleaner.
~ Sophia Loren
I never do enjoy my breaks, long or short...I look forward to them intensely, but as soon as they begin, I can feel them starting to end. I feel the temporariness of my freedom, and find it hard to concentrate on anything other than the sensation of it trickling away.
~ Sophie Hannah

~ Sophie Hannah
Most men pursue pleasure with such breathless haste that they hurry past it.
~ Soren Kierkegaard
You will never find the life for which you are looking. When the gods created man they allotted to him death, but life they retained in their own keeping. As for you, Gilgamesh, fill your belly with good things; day and night, night and day, dance and be merry, feast and rejoice. Let your clothes be fresh, bathe yourself in water, cherish the little child that holds your hand, and make your wife happy in your embrace; for this too is the lot of man.
~ Sorita d'Este
No man is quick enough to enjoy life to the full.
~ Spanish proverb
Life wasn't too bad. The trouble with Man was, even while he was having a good time, he didn't appreciate it. Why, thought Milligan, this very moment might be the happiest in me life. The very thought of it made him miserable.
~ Spike Milligan
life is a ball we should play with it !
~ Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
And I wondered that I now loved Thee, and no phantasm for Thee. And yet did I not press on to enjoy my God; but was borne up to Thee by Thy beauty, and soon borne down from Thee by mine own weight, sinking with sorrow into these inferior things.
~ St. Augustine
Friendship is the source of the greatest pleasures, and without friends even the most agreeable pursuits become tedious.
~ St. Thomas Aquinas
Yet through virtuous living man is further ordained to a higher end, which consists in the enjoyment of God, as we have said above. Consequently, since society must have the same end as the individual man, it is not the ultimate end of an assembled multitude to live virtuously, but through virtuous living to attain to the possession of God.
~ St. Thomas Aquinas
After escargots swimming in garlic butter, steak with the crispiest, thinnest fries imaginable, and simple salads of butter lettuce in a peppery Dijon vinaigrette, we share a cheese course, followed by a trio of desserts: lemon tart for me, blueberry bread pudding for Jean, and a poached pear for Ruth.
~ Stacey Ballis
Shawn reaches across the counter with the spoon, and I taste the creamy potatoes, rich and delicious, with just the perfect amount of tartness from the sour cream. I roll my eyes in ecstasy.
~ Stacey Ballis
I go to the counter and take a blondie off the rack I used to do the chocolate drizzle and bite into it. They have browned butter and a combination of dark and light brown sugar, which gives them a deep caramel tang. The pistachios have retained their crunch, and the figs are just slightly tart. The white chocolate takes the whole thing over the top, and I know that, if nothing else, I can cook.
~ Stacey Ballis
Bubbles enters with a plate overflowing with rugelach. The three of us fall silent as we indulge in the small snail-shaped pastries of tender cream-cheese-infused dough wrapped around various fillings: one with walnuts and cinnamon, one bursting with chocolate, one with a thick, sweet poppy seed paste, and one with apricot jam that has been bumped up with some chewy bits of diced dried apricots.
~ Stacey Ballis

~ Stacey Ballis
It is always easier to be an epicure of a small repast than of a banquet.
~ Stacy Aumonier
A whole life can go by being too busy and waiting for "when." Living in the future means barely existing in the present. If you can't enjoy things now, when will you magically develop the tools to enjoy things in the future?
~ Stacy London
Life doesn't get much better than this.
~ Stanford Wong
Mais maintenant, brutalement sortie de ce tumulte, je voulais encore une fois revivre, pour en jouir rétrospectivement, bribe par bribe, ces émotions fugitives, grâce à cette façon magique de se tromper soi-même que nous appelons le souvenir...À vrai dire, ce sont là des choses que l'on comprend ou que l'on ne comprend pas. Peut-être faut-il avoir un cÅ"ur brûlant, pour les concevoir.
~ Stefan Zweig
All things considered, he stuck to his basic attitude of enjoying wealth by knowing that he had it, rather than by making a great display of it.
~ Stefan Zweig
States of profound happiness, like all other forms of intoxication, are apt to befuddle the wits; intense enjoyment of the present always makes one forget the past.
~ Stefan Zweig
Åžu bir kaç saatin tad?n? ç?kar?n, hiçbirimize tek bir nefeslik bir yaÅŸam dahi verilmeyecek ve böyle bir anda aÅŸk? bulan onun keyfini ç?karmal?d?r.
~ Stefan Zweig
