Bekannte Zitate von Calvin Trillin

Health food makes me sick.
We all know funny people who can't get it down on the page - even funny writers who can't get it down on the page.
There's always a source for humor.
Canadians are very well behaved, they don't throw their food.
I don't think I've ever read a food piece or a food book.
I don't cook. I don't know anything about food. I've never reviewed a restaurant.
The food in such places is so tasteless because the members associate spices and garlic with just the sort of people they're trying to keep out.
The most remarkable thing about my mother is that for thirty years she served the family nothing but leftovers. The original meal has never been found.
With humor, it's so subjective that trying to think of what the ideal reader would think would drive you crazy.
When it comes to Chinese food I have always operated under the policy that the less known about the preparation the better. A wise diner who is invited to visit the kitchen replies by saying, as politely as possible, that he has a pressing engagement elsewhere.
I actually think of being funny as an odd turn of mind, like a mild disability, some weird way of looking at the world that you can't get rid of.
If it's inappropriate to write about, if there's nothing funny about it, then it's not funny.
I never did very well in math - I could never seem to persuade the teacher that I hadn't meant my answers literally.
