“I am a man without many pleasures in life, a man whose few pleasures are small, but a man whose small pleasures are very important to him. One of them is eating. One reading. Another reading while eating.”
“Poor is the man whose pleasure depends on the permission of another.”
“That man is the richest whose pleasures are the cheapest. ”
“Eating and reading are two pleasures that combine admirably.”
“Sure, I eat because I have to. But I also eat because I want to. It is one of life’s few pleasures.”
“A man without pleasure is a man without any idea what life is about”
