Children nowadays are tyrants. They contradict their parents, gobble their food, and tyrannise their teachers.

Most of us have fond memories of food from our childhood. Whether it was our mom's homemade lasagna or a memorable chocolate birthday cake, food has a way of transporting us back to the past.

Knowledge of the past and of the places of the earth is the ornament and food of the mind of man.

Immense wealth, and its lavish expenditure, fill the great house with all that can please the eye, or tempt the taste. here, appetite, not food, is the great desideratum.
