Got any favorite cooking "sayings" ?

Frederick, MD(Zone 6a)

I've always like these:

"There is an emanation from the heart in genuine hospitality which can not be described but is immediately felt, and puts the stranger at once at his ease." Washington Irving


"There is no sight on earth more appealing that the sight of a woman making dinner for someone she loves." Thomas Wolfe


"As for rosemary, I let it run all over my garden walls, not ony because my bees love it but because it is the herb sacred to remembrance and to friendship, whence a sprig of it hath a dumb language." Sir Thomas Moore


"Summer cooking implies a sense of immediacy, a capacity to capture the essence of the fleeting moment." Elizabeth David
