Good bread is the most fundamentally satisfying of all foods; and good bread with fresh butter, the greatest of feasts.

James Beard

He was already fading. I knew that it wouldn’t be long until he was just a vague image, however much I tried to cling onto his memory.

Caroline Green

Yeah… everything is images for me. Bits and pieces coming together in pictures.” He grinned. “I see good fortune as dragons, and…” he turned the cup, pointing at a rippling shape along the edge, “and that thing there is definitely a dragon. Whoever this person is – this tall guy you talk to – it’s a good thing for you. Some kind of resolution, and a change for the future…”

Danika Stone

By eating meat we share the responsibility of climate change, the destruction of our forests, and the poisoning of our air and water. The simple act of becoming a vegetarian will make a difference in the health of our planet.

Thích Nhất Hạnh

Women need food, water, and compliments
That’s right.
And an occasional pair of shoes.

Chris Rock

As we raise our national flag do we also raise our hatred and ignorance?

Anthony T. Hincks

The fallout caused by denial was inherited by later generations of Armenians, linking them to the fateful days of 1915, and compelling them to set the record straight.

Michael Bobelian

People spot a big black lens, and they worry about what they’re doing, or how their hair looks. Nobody sees the person holding the camera.

Erica O’Rourke

In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous.

Aristotle

Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.

John Ruskin

The dripping blood our only drink,
The bloody flesh our only food:
In spite of which we like to think
That we are sound, substantial flesh and blood–
Again, in spite of that, we call this Friday good.

T.S. Eliot

Now I believe that lovers should be draped in flowers and laid entwined together on a bed of clover and left there to sleep, left there to dream of their happiness.

That’s the place to get to—nowhere. One wants to wander away from the world’s somewheres, into our own nowhere.

D.H. Lawrence

I’m always sad to leave paradise, but I leave behind the hopes of coming again soon.

Irina Shayk

Beauty exists not in what is seen and remembered, but in what is felt and never forgotten.

Johnathan Jena

Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed [is] the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.

John 12:13

Always pass a plate of forgiveness before each verbal feast.

Anabel Jensen

Animal rights are not a gift we give to animals. They are a birthright we have taken from them.

Ryan Phillips

Dusk, doubt, the growing depth of an evening sky, dark setting in as it did that night, the forever vastness of outer space reflecting the emptiness here inside, shadowing, colouring, clouding the mind.

But somewhere out there there has to be life, the distance only a matter of time, a world like our own, its markings and shades as uniquely formed as a daughter’s eye, distinctly fleeked, undeniably hers, looking back this way through the miles and years to a lantern cupping a golden blaze, its candle alive with a fierce blonde flame for the thousandth time, for as long as it takes.

By Simon Armitage

We are made for loving.

If we don’t love, we will be like plants without water.

Desmond Tutu

You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one.

I hope someday you’ll join us. And the world will live as one.

John Lennon

Don’t compare her to sunshine and roses when she’s clearly orchids and moonlight.

Melody Lee

Lifetime friends are with you ’till the end
They’re the ones that know you the best
You laugh about how you were so young and proud
You do that when you’ve made a lifetime friend

Adam Brand

When hope is fleeting, stop for a moment and visualize, in a sky of silver, the crescent of a lavender moon. Imagine it — delicate, slim, precise, like a paper-thin slice from a cabochon jewel.

It may not be very useful, but it is beautiful.

And sometimes it is enough.

Vera Nazarian

I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain’t it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That’s too bad

ABBA

I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti.

Thomas Harris

(Great line from Silence of the Lambs movie)

You could say that everything had become weirdly distorted because I’d broken the rules so many times.

Fuminori Nakamura

Oh my…
Are you the good cholesterol or the bad kind?

Unknown author

I may not be beautiful,
I may not be tall,
I may have no legs,
And be hairy and all.
I may not be rich,
With lifestyle or clothes,
I may not tweet,
For my arms are too low.
I may have warts,
An acne or two,
I may be incomplete,
Compared to all of you.
But when I see,
The reflection of me,
I see someone beautiful,
And I know it’s me.
