It should never add to them the deformity of vice." ― Eleanor Roosevelt Topic(s): Age Tags: deformities, enough More From Eleanor Roosevelt "I think, at a child’s birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift, that gift should be curiosity." "Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people." "Freedom makes a huge requirement of every human being. With freedom comes responsibility. For the person who is unwilling to grow up, the person who does not want to carry is own weight, this is a frightening prospect."

Middle age is when you’re forced to."― Bill Vaughan "My inspiration was my mom. She’s a great cook, and she still cooks, and we still banter back and forth about cooking. Growing up in a mostly Portuguese community, food was important and the family table was extremely important. At a very young age I understood that."― Emeril Lagasse
