#nourishment

One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.

In banquets remember that you entertain two guests, body and soul: and what you give to the body you soon lose, but what you give to the soul remains forever.

The supreme good is like water, which nourishes all of creation without trying to compete with it.

I am different from other people: I drink from the Great Mother's breast.

The sky is the daily bread of the eyes.

The greatest virtue is like flowing water that nourishes all things without contending with any.

When the mind is empty of ambition, every mouthful of simple food tastes like divine nectar.

Silence is essential. We need silence just as much as we need air, just as much as plants need light.
