10 QUOTES WITH «PALATE»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word palate.
1
Steve Albini
My father was an expert hunter, so we ate a lot of wild game when I was growing up in Montana. That helped broaden my palate generally, but I know it informed my distaste for factory farms and unspectacular commercial meat.
2
E. F. Benson
There is no reason to suppose that taste is in any way a lower sense than the other four; a fine palate is as much a gift as an eye that discerns beauty or an ear that appreciates and enjoys subtle harmonies of sound, and we are quite right to value the pleasures that all our senses give us and educate their perceptions.
3
Chaz Bono
There's a gender in your brain and a gender in your body. For 99 percent of people, those things are in alignment. For transgender people, they're mismatched. That's all it is. It's not complicated, it's not a neurosis. It's a mix-up. It's a birth defect, like a cleft palate.
4
Graydon Carter
A workday lunch that lasts as long as a transcontinental flight is an impossibility for all but the most pliant and footloose of food tourists. To get in the game, you need a thick wallet, an adventurous palate, and a whole lot of time.
5
Bradley Chicho
Plunderous is the palate I gift to you, openly I hug the universe of our friendship expanding its outer limit.
6
Robert Dallek
During Grover Cleveland's second term, in the 1890s, the White House deceived the public by dismissing allegations that surgeons had removed a cancerous growth from the President's mouth; a vulcanized-rubber prosthesis disguised the absence of much of Cleveland's upper left jaw and part of his palate.
7
Jeff Dunham
The only way a ventriloquist speaks differently is that he forgoes using his or her lips, and learns to reproduce sounds using the tongue, upper palate, and teeth only. Those 'difficult' letters are B, F, M, P, V, W, and Y.
8
Jennifer Ellison
I don't find it a struggle to maintain a healthy diet now as my palate has changed. I don't crave rich food.
9
Joey Fatone
It's fun to be able to have a fun palate, and the way I say that, you think about it and it sounds funny, but it's true.
10
Gale Gordon
My voice, I have to say, is kind of miraculous because I was born with a cleft palate.
