I would like to have you quote me, Erich von Stroheim, as having said on this day of this month of this year this one thing: you Americans are living on baby food.

I used to hang out by the food table at parties because you don't have to talk to anybody. If you do then you can talk about the food.

I don't like salads: I like the strong food.

I like to say, jazz music is kind of like my musical equivalent of comfort food. You know, it's always where I go back to when I just want to feel sort of grounded.

I think for me, food was a way for me to deal with emotional trouble.
