"Animal substance seems to be the first food of all birds, even the granivorous tribes." ― William Bartram Topic(s): Food More From William Bartram "On the recollection of so many and great favours and blessings, I now, with a high sense of gratitude, presume to offer up my sincere thanks to the Almighty, the Creator and Preserver." "If we bestow but a very little attention to the economy of the animal creation, we shall find manifest examples of premeditation, perseverance, resolution, and consumate artifice, in order to effect their purpose." "My progress was rendered delightful by the sylvan elegance of the groves, chearful meadows, and high distant forests, which in grand order presented themselves to view."

They live in the moment and don’t care about anything except affection and food. They’re loyal and happy. Humans are just too damn complicated."― David Duchovny "It all comes back to the basics. Serve customers the best-tasting food at a good value in a clean, comfortable restaurant, and they’ll keep coming back."― Dave Thomas
