Here's how it is: I feel guilty about every single bite of food that goes into my mouth.
Monks will have three begging bowls for their food: one for water, one for liquid food, one for dry food.
The natural sweetness of leeks, with their soft, oniony aroma, makes them the perfect winter comfort food.
When I was a kid, there was always food to be had on the street in Jerusalem, but anything above a falafel stand was mediocre or worse.
The smells of slow cooking spread around the house and impart a unique warmth matched only by the flavour of the food.
One man's trash is another man's treasure, and the by-product from one food can be perfect for making another.
A food processor, or even one of those small bowls that fit on a stick blender, is a real treasure. No, that's not an overstatement.
Big and oppressive government has long been the enemy of freedom, something black Americans know all too well.
People may say I developed an iron will, but what really happened is that I made myself much fitter. I think an iron will is always supported by fitness.
I wasn't young, I wasn't pretty, and I was a black woman looking for success in a business where those attributes were certainly not in demand in the 1960s.
By regulating marijuana, we can put black market drug dealers out of business and eliminate the rebellious allure that attracts young people.
My parents were vegetarians. I'd show up at school, this giant black kid, with none of the cool clothes and a tofu sandwich and celery sticks.
If an election is simply a one-day snapshot of transient mass delusions, then this is not a very noble form of government.
I was pretty much the government's poster boy for what I had done.
Government is necessary for our survival. We need government in order to survive. The Founding Fathers created a special place for government. It is called the Constitution.
I find it very offensive when the government tells me what I can and cannot watch. Censor yourself.
Democratic forms of government are vulnerable to mass prejudice, the so-called tyranny of the majority.
The principal purpose of the Democratic Party is to use the force of government to take property away from the people who earn it and give it to people who do not.
There is nothing quite so depressing as waking up to face a day when you know that you are going to have to deal with a government office or bureaucrat.
Black Americans, no more than white Americans, they do not want more government programs which perpetuate dependency. They don't want to be a colony in a nation.
Yeah, I think it's an absolute disaster that Australia, the government, allowed kangaroo culling.
