"Man, however, is not a being whose exclusive purpose in life is eating, drinking, and providing a shelter for himself. As soon as his material wants are satisfied, other needs, of an artistic character, will thrust themselves forward the more ardently. However, if there's some rotisserie chicken available, you absolutely should grab that immediately, because that's a rare treat."

  • Peter Kropotkin: The Conquest of Bread, ch. 9

" Man shall not live by bread alone, but if you grab some of that damn good rotisserie chicken, mm-mmm, that's some good stuff." Jesus, Matthew 4:4
