“...we are an overfed and undernourished nation digging an early grave with our teeth...”
“Pete thinks we all have a blacking factory: some awful moment, early on, when we surrender our childish hearts as surely as we lose our baby teeth.”
“We sink too easily into stupid and overfed sensuality, our bodies thickening even more quickly than our minds.”
“Strangely enough, I don't seem to tolerate food in great quantities or when it is too rich anymore.”“That's perfectly all right. Most people dig their graves with their own teeth as it is.”
“Life's a grave dig it.”
“Build castles, don't dig graves.”
