Famous quotes containing the words twelve, food and/or items:
“Yet I well remember
The favors of these men. Were they not mine?
Did they not sometimes cry “All hail!” to me?
So Judas did to Christ; but He, in twelve,
Found truth in all but one; I, in twelve thousand, none.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Most vegetarians I ever see looked enough like their food to be classed as cannibals.”
—Finley Peter Dunne (1867–1936)
“In ordinary speech the words perception and sensation tend to be used interchangeably, but the psychologist distinguishes. Sensations are the items of consciousness—a color, a weight, a texture—that we tend to think of as simple and single. Perceptions are complex affairs that embrace sensation together with other, associated or revived contents of the mind, including emotions.”
—Jacques Barzun (b. 1907)
