Margaret Laurence
The restaurant, Bongiorno's, was bad and didn't know it. Everything was presented with a passive-aggressive flourish, as though we probably weren't savvy enough to appreciate the oregano-heavy garlic bread, the individual bowls for olive pits, the starched napkins stuffed into our wineglasses, or the waiter's strained enunciation of a long list of specials. Jonathan Lethem

They want out. This list includes Thurston Howell the Third, Ann-Margret, the cat members of Rent, Vclav Havel, space shuttle astronauts and Snuffleupagus. It's universal. Doug Coupland
All our science is just a cookery book, with an orthodox theory of cooking that nobody's allowed to question, and a list of recipes that mustn't be added to except by special permission from the head cook. Aldous Huxley
