In love, as in gluttony, pleasure is a matter of the utmost precision.

Not addicted to gluttony or drunkenness, this people who incur no expense in food or dress, and whose minds are always bent upon the defence of their country, and on the means of plunder, are wholly employed in the care of their horses and furniture.

Our fear of hypocrisy is forcing us to live in a world where gluttons are fine, so long as they champion gluttony.

The flesh endures the storms of the present alone; the mind, those of the past and future as well as the present. Gluttony is a lust of the mind.

I think it's important to encourage gluttony in all its formats.

The Bible and several other self help or enlightenment books cite the Seven Deadly Sins. They are: pride, greed, lust, envy, wrath, sloth, and gluttony. That pretty much covers everything that we do, that is sinful... or fun for that matter.

Gluttony is an emotional escape, a sign something is eating us.

Gluttony is not a secret vice.

This is the artist, then, life's hungry man, the glutton of eternity, beauty's miser, glory's slave.
