Body Effect

Famous quotes containing the words body and/or effect:

“I know I have the body of a weak and feeble woman, but I have the heart and stomach of a king, and of a king of England, too.”

“Other countries drink to get drunk, and this is accepted by everyone; in France, drunkenness is a consequence, never an intention. A drink is felt as the spinning out of a pleasure, not as the necessary cause of an effect which is sought: wine is not only a philtre, it is also the leisurely act of drinking.”
—Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
