"Progress would not have been the rarity it is if the early food had not been the late poison." ― Walter Bagehot Topic(s): Food More From Walter Bagehot "Dullness in matters of government is a good sign, and not a bad one – in particular, dullness in parliamentary government is a test of its excellence, an indication of its success." "The best history is but like the art of Rembrandt; it casts a vivid light on certain selected causes, on those which were best and greatest; it leaves all the rest in shadow and unseen." "A great pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do." More In Food "I was born in the ’60s and grew up in the ’70s – not exactly the best decade for food in British history. It was horrendous. It was a time when, as a nation, we excelled in art and music and acting and photography and fashion – all creative skills… all apart from cooking."― Heston Blumenthal "I love food and I love everything involved with food. I love the fun of it. I love restaurants. I love cooking, although I don’t cook very much. I love kitchens."― Alma Guillermoprieto "The Wayne Education Building was the first classroom building that we have done on the Wayne campus."― Minoru Yamasaki
