Years Quotes
Every living thing is an elaboration of a single original plan. As humans we are mere increments - each of us a musty archive of adjustments, adaptations, modifications and providential tinkerings stretching back to 3,8 billion years. Remarkably we are even quite closely related to fruit and vegetables. About half the chemical functions that take place in a banana are fundamentally the same as the chemical functions that place in you. It cannot be said too often: all life is one. That is, and I suspect will ever prove to be, the most profound true statement there is.

Men Quotes
It may indeed be doubted whether butchers' meet is anywhere a necessary of life. Grain and other vegetables, with the help of milk, cheese, and butter, or oil where butter is not to be had, afford the most plentiful, the most wholesome, the most nourishing, and the most invigorating diet. Decency nowhere requires that any man should eat butchers' meat.

Issues Quotes
[It's] hard to fully enjoy your time on Earth without having your health. Ask anyone battling health issues - most especially, issues that could have been avoided. For me, I read food labels, I seek out places to purchase the best-quality foods available to me, and I inquire about how they are produced (meats and fruits/vegetables).

Dark Quotes
The near end of the street was rather dark and had mostly vegetable shops. Abundance of vegetables - piles of white and green fennel, like celery, and great sheaves of young, purplish, sea-dust-coloured artichokes . . . long strings of dried figs, mountains of big oranges, scarlet large peppers, a large slice of pumpkin, a great mass of colours and vegetable freshness. . . .

Adequate Quotes
We're struggling to provide adequate food to our agencies because we've had cuts in USDA commodities. We aren't getting the canned beans, vegetables and fruit that we used to. We're hearing that the amount of canned food is down because of crop failures, but the federal government hasn't put any new money into the program for ten years.

Afford Quotes
We always lived on John's salary, and whatever I earned was put aside for remodeling or for traveling. That's how we can afford to do this. We've been very conservative, lived very frugally. We were almost self-contained, raising our own fruits and vegetables and rabbits. About the only thing we bought was milk.
-
Adult Quotes
To be honest, I was the world's worst vegetarian. You see - I didn't really like vegetables very much. I'd spent most of my childhood terrified of them - horrid bland mushy things. It's only as an adult I realise that part of the problem is my mother's cooking - she hates using salt and has a tendency to overboil things. Thanks, Mum.

Best Quotes
Even though we couldn't find an association with colorectal cancer, fruits and vegetables definitely protect for other important diseases such as cardiovascular disease, stroke, diabetes and potentially other cancers. These are some of the best foods we can eat -- there is no doubt about it.

Blessed Quotes
The sweet quality is set opposite to the bitter, and is a gracious, amiable, blessed and pleasant quality, a refreshing of the life, an allaying of the fierceness. It maketh all pleasant and friendly in every creature; it maketh the vegetables of the earth fragrant and of good taste, affording fair, yellow, white and ruddy colours.

Agencies Quotes
There were some larger agencies that were drilling deep wells, but the problem was that when they would break no one in the village would know how to fix them, ... Our projects are aimed at self sufficiency. The goal is the wells are built hand-in-hand with the villagers, and then someone in the village, someone who the villagers choose, is trained to become the maintenance person, and he is paid in vegetables or a chicken for the work he does maintaining the well.

Bring Quotes
If you use a good product and prepare it simply, you're going to get a good end product. I use a lot of fresh vegetables from local farmers. We're known for our rotisserie-roasted prime rib, but now we're going to be doing it over a hard-wood grill, so it will bring out the flavor even more. It's things like that.
-
Buying Quotes
Buying fruit or vegetables that are in season is cheaper, as is buying loose produce. Frozen peas contain more vitamin C than some fresh vegetables. Tinned fruit in natural juice and vegetables, concentrated fruit juice and dried fruit contribute to your five daily portions, too. And they last longer.
-
Thinking Quotes
My happiest hours are those in which I think nothing, want nothing, when I do not even dream, but lose myself in some spurious vegetable torpor, moss growing on the surface of life. Without a trace of bitterness I savour my absurd awareness of being nothing, a mere foretaste of death and extinction.

Alcohol Quotes
To develop intuition, one of the things you can do is pay attention to what you eat. Eat as clean a diet as you can. Eat fresh fruits and vegetables without preservatives, without alcohol, caffeine, dyes, and organically grown if possible. But do what is comfortable for your. Don't try to shift into a lifestyle that doesn't fit, but be aware that the lighter you eat the lighter you will feel.
