“It seems to me that our three basic needs, for food and security and love, are so mixed and mingled and entwined that we cannot straightly think of one without the others. So it happens that when I write of hunger, I am really writing about love and the hunger for it, and warmth and the love of it and the hunger for it… and then the warmth and richness and fine reality of hunger satisfied… and it is all one.”
― M.F.K. Fisher, The Art of Eating

“Every relationship is fundamentally a power struggle, and the individual in power is whoever likes the other person less.”

“Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.”
