Taste Quotes
When birds burp, it must taste like bugs.
Bill Watterson
Society is commonly too cheap. We meet at very short intervals, not having had time to acquire any new value for each other. We meet at meals three times a day, and give each other a new taste of that old musty cheese that we are.
Henry David Thoreau
I like liquor - its taste and its effects - and that is just the reason why I never drink it.
Thomas Jackson
Get excited and enthusiastic about you own dream. This excitement is like a forest fire -- you can smell it, taste it, and see it from a mile away.
Denis Waitley
Intelligence is really a kind of taste: taste in ideas.
Susan Sontag
What is the use of aesthetics if they can neither teach how to produce beauty nor how to appreciate it in good taste? It exists because it behooves rational human beings to provide reasons for their actions and assessments. Even if aesthetics are not the mathematics of beauty, they are the proof of the calculation.
Franz Grillparzer
Lips that taste of tears, they say, Are the best for kissing.
Dorothy Parker
Forgiveness is better than bitterness because not only does it taste sweeter, but it doesn't make you sick to your stomach!
Guy Finley
In every power, of which taste is the foundation, excellence is pretty fairly divided among the sexes.
Jane Austen
A college education is not a quantitative body of memorized knowledge salted away in a card file. It is a taste for knowledge, a taste for philosophy, if you will; a capacity to explore, to question to perceive relationships, between fields of knowledge and experience.
A. Whitney Griswold
The greatest man is he who forms the taste of a nation; the next greatest is he who corrupts it
Joshua Reynolds
If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant; if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.
Anne Bradstreet
Life... is like a box of chocolates - a cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that no one ever asks for, unreturnable because all you get back is another box of chocolates. So, you're stuck with mostly undefinable whipped mint crap, mindlessly wolfed down when there's nothing else to eat while you're watching the game. Sure, once is a while you get a peanut butter cup or an English toffee but it's gone too fast and the taste is fleeting. In the end, you are left with nothing but broken bits filled with hardened jelly and teeth-shattering nuts, which, if you are desperate enough to eat, leaves nothing but an empty box of useless brown paper.
The X-Files
There is always a heavy demand for fresh mediocrity. In every generation the least cultivated taste has the largest appetite.
Paul Gauguin
