I'm just angry at the sort of things that are winding up in ground beef. I'm angry that other people - mainly children - are going to be sickened by eating a hamburger.

As a matter of fact, most cases of food poisoning are never linked back to their source.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

I cannot cook to save my life. I'm really frighteningly useless, when you get down to it.

A free life cannot acquire many possessions, because this is not easy to do without servility to mobs or monarchs.
