E. F. Benson

Taste is one of the five senses, and the man who tells us with priggish pride that he does not care what he eats is merely boasting of his sad deficiency: he might as well be proud of being deaf or blind, or, owing to a perpetual cold in the head, of being devoid of the sense of smell.

Leonard Susskind

Life is fragile: it thrives only in a narrow range of temperatures between freezing and boiling.

Curtis Hanson
