Dish Quotations
Success without honor is an unseasoned dish; it will satisfy your hunger, but it won't taste good.
Joe Paterno
So in our pride we ordered for breakfast an omelet, toast and coffee and what has just arrived is a tomato salad with onions, a dish of pickles, a big slice of watermelon and two bottles of cream soda.
John Steinbeck
The only thing that counts is if you know how to prepare your ingredients. Even if with the best and freshest ingredients in the world, if your dish is tasteless or burnt, it's ruined.
Martin Yan

Paul Simon
Leadership is diving for a loose ball, getting the crowd involved, getting other players involved. It's being able to take it as well as dish it out. That's the only way you're going to get respect from the players.
Larry Bird
Another method of eating burning coals employs small balls of burned cotton in a dish of burning alcohol.
Harry Houdini
The discovery of a new dish confers more happiness on humanity, than the discovery of a new star.
