Food Libel

Famous quotes containing the words food and/or libel:

    When no food is given to the ear,
    Then let a little be given to the stomach.
    Tiruvalluvar (c. 5th century A.D.)

    Nor do they trust their tongue alone,
    But speak a language of their own;
    Can read a nod, a shrug, a look,
    Far better than a printed book;
    Convey a libel in a frown,
    And wink a reputation down.
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
