To me, life without veal stock, pork fat, sausage, organ meat, demi-glace, or even stinky cheese is a life not worth living. Vegetarians are the enemy of everything good and decent in the human spirit, an affront to all I stand for, the pure enjoyment of food. Anthony Bourdain
Clive Barker quote: "What worth was a man who could not be haunted?"
What worth was a man who could not be haunted? Clive Barker
My new favorite word is 'awkward.'...The reason we need to be in search of awkward is that awkward is the barrier between us and excellence, between where we are and the remarkable. If it were easy, everyone would have done it already, and it wouldn't be worth the effort. Seth Godin
They make a fuss about Hogsmeade, but I assure you, Harry, it's not all it's cracked up to be. All right, the sweetshop's rather good, and Zonko's Joke Shop's frankly dangerous, and yes, the Shrieking Shack is always worth a visit, but really, Harry, apart from that, you're not missing anything. J. K. Rowling
From quiet homes and first beginning. Out to the undiscovered ends. There's nothing worth the wear of winning. But laughter and the love of friends. Hilaire Belloc
