Famous quotes containing the words eat, pea and/or soup:
“He shall eat flowers,
Chew honey and spit out gall. They shall all smile
And love and pity him.
His death shall be by drowning.”
—Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)
“I worry about people who get born nowadays, because they get born into such tiny families—sometimes into no family at all. When you’re the only pea in the pod, your parents are likely to get you confused with the Hope Diamond. And that encourages you to talk too much.”
—Russell Baker (b. 1925)
“Food probably has a very great influence on the condition of men. Wine exercises a more visible influence, food does it more slowly but perhaps just as surely. Who knows if a well-prepared soup was not responsible for the pneumatic pump or a poor one for a war?”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
