Tastes

Famous quotes containing the word tastes:

“Excluded by my birth and tastes from the social order, I was not aware of its diversity.... Nothing in the world was irrelevant: the stars on a general’s sleeve, the stock-market quotations, the olive harvest, the style of the judiciary, the wheat exchange, flower-beds.... Nothing. This order, fearful and feared, whose details were all inter-related, had a meaning: my exile.”
—Jean Genet (1910–1986)

“But it’s hard to farm
Between the stumps:
The cows get thin, the milk tastes funny,
The kids grow up and go to college
They don’t come back
the little fir-trees do”
—Gary Snyder (b. 1930)

“Heywood Floyd: What’s that, chicken?
Michaels: Something like that. Tastes the same, anyway.”
—Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)
