There are people who strictly deprive themselves of each and every eatable, drinkable, and smokable which has in any way acquired a shady reputation. They pay this price for health. And health is all they get for it. How strange it is. It is like paying out your whole fortune for a cow that has gone dry.

"I'm going to live to be 100, unless I'm run down by a sugar-crazed taxi driver."

what's the point of it living to be a hundred? a short and merry life is far better than a long life sustained by fear caution and perpetual medical surveillance

It's no longer a question of staying healthy. It's a question of finding a sickness you like.

My illness is due to my doctor's insistence that I drink milk, a whitish fluid they force down helpless babies.

The direct use of force is such a poor solution to any problem, it is generally employed only by small children and large nations.

You lot, who preach restraint and watch your waist as well
Should learn, for once, the way the world is run However much you twist, or whatever lies that you tell Food is the first thing, morals follow on So first make sure that those who are now starving get proper helpings, when we all start carving --Original words by Bertolt Brecht --Translation by Ralph Manheim and John Willett

No diet will remove all the fat from your body because the brain is entirely fat. Without a brain, you might look good, but all you could do is run for public office.

Women’s Liberation calls it enslavement but the real truth about the sexual revolution is that it has made of sex an almost chaotically limitless and therefore unmanageable realm in the life of women.
