More From Ivan Pavlov
- "But man has still another powerful resource: natural science with its strictly objective methods."
- "Edible substances evoke the secretion of thick, concentrated saliva. Why? The answer, obviously, is that this enables the mass of food to pass smoothly through the tube leading from the mouth into the stomach."
- "It has long been known for sure that the sight of tasty food makes a hungry man’s mouth water; also lack of appetite has always been regarded as an undesirable phenomenon, from which one might conclude that appetite is essentially linked with the process of digestion."

- "Between work and the kids, I never see anyone anymore. I mean, when I first met with ABC last spring, and they asked me what I’d been doing lately, I said: ‘Gee, I have two kids. I’m usually covered with food, wrinkled and feel guilty all the time."― Felicity Huffman
- "It has never made any sense to argue that, unique among the people of the world, Arabs are more concerned on a day-to-day basis about the treatment of people they don’t know than they are about how they’re going to put food on their own tables, or whether their sons will ever find a job."― John Podhoretz
- "The high food value of field beans and the shortage of supply due to the light yields of 1915 and 1916 render them of great importance in the regions to which they are adapted."― David F. Houston
