I gave up so many things. It wasn't that I was out of control - it was just years of eating anything I wanted. I wouldn't eat a whole pizza, but if I wanted pizza two or three times a week, I didn't think to limit myself. So I just cut out all the st...
I'm a vegetarian, and I long for people to eat less meat, but the thing to do is not to go, 'Eat! Less! Meat!' It's to say, 'I am fit as a flea and I'm 63, I haven't eaten meat for 40 years, and I never get diseases, I'm never ill, and I'm full of en...
Bilbo Baggins: Why don't we have a game of riddles and if I win, you show me the way out of here? Gollum: And if he loses? What then? Well if he loses precious then we eats it! If Baggins loses we eats it whole! Bilbo Baggins: Fair enough.
Betty Carver: Hey. I could have had any guy, any guy, but I chose you. I chose you. Gilbert: Why did you? Betty Carver: [pause] Because... I knew you'd always be there. Because I knew you'd never leave.
Gilbert: Ellen? Ellen? Ellen Grape: What? Gilbert: Could you not talk with your mouth full? Ellen Grape: Excuse me? Gilbert: You're making me sick, I'm gonna throw up. Ellen Grape: Oh, okay, dad. Sure thing, dad.
Jim Lovell: Uh, Houston, we are ready for the beginning of PTC, and I think once we're in that barbecue roll, Jack and I will eat. Fred Haise, Sr.: Hey, I'm hungry. Jim Lovell: Are you sure? Fred Haise, Sr.: I could eat the ass out of a dead rhinocer...
We make decisions every day about what we're going to eat. And some people want to buy Nike shoes - two pairs, and other people want to eat Bronx grapes and nourish themselves. I pay a little extra, but this is what I want to do.
Good health and good sense are two great blessings.
I eat like a horse!
Eating has to be fun.
I'm working at trying to be a Christian, and that's serious business. It's like trying to be a good Jew, a good Muslim, a good Buddhist, a good Shintoist, a good Zoroastrian, a good friend, a good lover, a good mother, a good buddy - it's serious bus...
If more people understood how nice it is to have a sense of home that extends past our locked doors, past our neighbors' padlocks, to the local food co-op and library, the sidewalks busted up by old trees - if we all held home with longer arms - we'd...
Colin Sullivan: I can get the rat. You just gotta let me do it my way, Frank. Frank Costello: Okay. [hands Sullivan "Citizens Trust" envelope] Frank Costello: But Colin - I hope I don't have to remind you that if you don't find that cheese-eating rat...
Hang a German, even if he is a good man.
The open house makes a good man of the thief.
I didn’t know how I could live with that knowledge, without it eating me up, without it poisoning every happy memory I had of growing up. Without it ruining everything Beck and I had. I didn’t understand how someone could be both God and the devi...
You fall into thought while staring at the green foliage back here—so much damn green that it envelops you in its cruddy fist—and the thoughts aren’t too good, either—thoughts of sitting on the toilet—eating a sandwich—standing in line at...
Because...Beacause it's so good, and there's only one chance to read a book for the first time, and I want it to last. That experience. I'd finish it in a day otherwise, and that'd be like...like eating a carton of ice cream in one sitting. Too much ...
She remembered the story from her childhood, about Adam and Eve in the garden, and the talking snake. Even as a little girl she had said - to the consternation of her family - What kind of idiot was Eve, to believe a snake? But now she understood, fo...
Listen to the people who love you. Believe that they are worth living for even when you don't believe it. Seek out the memories depression takes away and project them into the future. Be brave; be strong; take your pills. Exercise because it's good f...
