“What is desire? Desire is a restaurant. Desire is watching you eat. Desire is pouring wine for you. Desire is looking at the menu and wondering what it would be like to kiss you. Desire is the surprise of your skin. Look - in between us now are the props of ordinary life - glasses, knives, cloths, Time has been here before. History has had you - and me too. My hand has brushed against yours for centuries. The props change, but not this. Not this single naked wanting you.”

“Because I was reading today
in the science section of the paper that passionate love
lasts only a year, maybe two, if you're lucky.
Because I want to be extra lucky. Because the article
apologized specifically to poets - sorry, you hopeless
saps - as though we automatically believe in love more
than anyone else (more than kindergarten teachers, long-haired
carpenters) & have been pushing this Non-Truth
on everyone. Because who knows what will happen,
but I want to, baby, want to believe it's always possible
to love bigger & madder, even after two, three, four years,
four decades. I want a love as dirty as a snowball fight
in the sludge, under grimy yellow lights. I want this winter
inside my lungs. Inside my brain & dream. I want to eat
the unplowed street & fog that's been erasing
evergreens. I want to eat the fog only to discover
it's some giant's lost silver blanket. I want to
find the giant & return to him his treasure.
I want the journey to be long. & strange, like a map
drawn in snow by our shadows shivering. I want to shiver
against you, into you.”

“Invention idea: Broccoli-flavored bubblegum. You know, for kids who won't eat their vegetables. Plus, it will make a great leftover snack when you're by the lake feeding ducks and you find some stuck underneath the park bench you're sitting on.”

“One girl said that her greatest pleasure in life is eating.
I was intrigued:
Either she doesn't know how to have sex, or I don't know how to eat right.”

“What Wittgenstein points the way toward here is the possibility of appreciating how (what we, under the pressure of certain philosophical assumptions, are prone to conceive of as) our 'merely' animal capacities are not merely animal. Even those capacities that we are inclined to view as beloning to our 'merely' animal being - capacities such as walking, eating, drinking, and playing - come to be transformed through and through in the lives of the sorts of creatures we are: ones who speak.”

“The place where you eat is as important as the meal itself! Everything you add to something beautiful makes it even more beautiful! Add a nice place to a nice meal, add music, add candles, add poems, the flavour of that meal will constantly increase!”

“As the saying goes, “you are what you eat.” However, I think that it’s a bit more accurate to say that you are what you ‘decide’ to eat. Therefore, if you’re not pleased with what you see in the mirror of your life, you may wish to review the menu that’s on the table of your heart.”

“Eating is no trifling activity. For any creature to eat, other creatures must die, most often by being eaten themselves. The soil that is the basis for the fertility, growth, and enjoyment of all terrestrial life is also one vast feeding frenzy in which billions of organisms live and die together. Life as we know it depends on death. That means death is not simply the end of life; it is life’s steadfast companion. There is no sharing in life that is not also a sharing in another’s death. Acknowledging this is terrifying. How does any one of us become worthy of another’s death and communicate that its life is not trivial or to be engaged recklessly?”
