Cravings Quotes

we eat for our stomachs, but we hunger with our hearts.

Whatever you crave for, leaves you more dissatisfied once experienced!

Mankind, in all his lusts, punishes himself. The gods have to do very little.

I had a ritual—and having any ritual sounded so mature that I told everyone about it, even the regulars. On my days off I woke up late and went to the coffee shop and had a cappuccino and read. Then around five p.m., when the light was failing, I would take out a bottle of dry sherry and pour myself a glass, take out a jar of green olives, put on Miles Davis, and read the wine atlas. I didn't know why it felt so luxurious, but one day I realized that ritual was why I had moved to New York—to eat olives and get tipsy and read about Nebbiolo while the sun set. I had created a life that was bent in service to all my personal cravings.

food has played a central role not only in my professional but also in my emotional life, in all of my dealings with loved ones and most of all in my relationship to myself and my body.

Yes, we eat for our stomachs, but we hunger with our hearts. Like most people and many women, I think about what to eat all the time.

Foods are like men: some are good, some are bad, and some are okay only in small doses. But most should be tried at least once.
