HIATUS

Heading off for a 4-month European solo jaunt - will be updating blog on at least a weekly basis, Flickr on a daily (or so) basis.  Will return to much tumblr-ing, but for now I’m going to get my adventuring on.  Have a wonderful summer!

“Vegetarians, and their Hezbollah-like splinter faction, the vegans, are a persistent irritant to any chef worth a damn. To me, life without veal stock, pork fat, sausage, organ meat, demi-glace, or even stinky cheese is a life not worth living. Vegetarians are the enemy of everything good and decent in the human spirit, and an affront to all I stand for, the pure enjoyment of food.”

ha ha ha!  Pure enjoyment without conscience or thought, I suppose.  I argue that vegans are a manifestation of the good and decent in the human spirit.  Who wants to have organ meat, anyway?  

“What else is there for me to conquer? Hopefully my ego. How will I know when I’ve succeeded? When I stop caring what anyone thinks.”

“People who cannot distinguish between good and bad language, or who regard the distinction as unimportant, are unlikely to think carefully about anything else.”

“What kids need to learn,” he says, “and what teachers must commit themselves fiercely to defending is the fact that the mind isn’t any sort of machine, that thinking with your own naked wits is a pure animal joy that cannot be programmed, and that great culture begins with an imagination on fire. We should remind our children at every turn that more great literature and more great science were accomplished with the quill pen than by the fastest microchip that will ever be invented.”
