Being Italian, I have a very special relationship with the culinary arts. One my projects was to share Italian cultural food with my colleagues. ~ Luca Parmitano
Being Italian quotes by Luca Parmitano
I always knew that food and wine were vital, with my mother being Italian and a good cook. ~ Robert Mondavi
Being Italian quotes by Robert Mondavi
I love being Italian. ~ Connie Stevens
Being Italian quotes by Connie Stevens
We were raised in an Italian-American household, although we didn't speak Italian in the house. We were very proud of being Italian, and had Italian music, ate Italian food. ~ Francis Ford Coppola
Being Italian quotes by Francis Ford Coppola
I'm very proud of being Italian-American, but people don't realize that the mafia is just this aberration. The real community is built on the working man, the guy who's the cop, the fireman, the truck driver, the bus driver. ~ Chazz Palminteri
Being Italian quotes by Chazz Palminteri
Los Angeles for many years had operated with a police department that was far smaller than other police departments had in areas of comparable or larger size, New York and Chicago being the most obvious examples. ~ Scott Turow
Being Italian quotes by Scott Turow
Preaching the whole council of God involves man's environment and physical being as well as his soul. There is no doubt that the church is in danger of getting off the main track and getting lost. ~ Billy Graham
Being Italian quotes by Billy Graham
Being famous is such a gift for me because small things make people's lives brighter. You just shake somebody's hand. You just smile and write your name and people will talk about it for the rest of their lives. ~ Will Smith
Being Italian quotes by Will Smith
The church isn't simply a collection of isolated individuals ... we need to learn again the lesson that a hand is no less a hand for being part of a larger whole, an entire body. The foot is not diminished in its freedom to be a foot by being part of a body which also contains eyes and ears. In fact, hands and feet are most free to be themselves when they coordinate properly with eyes, ears, and everything else. Cutting them off in an effort to make them truly free, truly themselves, would be truly disastrous. ~ N. T. Wright
Being Italian quotes by N. T. Wright
There is not less wit nor less invention in applying rightly a thought one finds in a book, than in being the first author of that thought. ~ Pierre Bayle
Being Italian quotes by Pierre Bayle
Practice being happy. Work at it. It's a new role, I realize, but you'll get it. The auditions will be coming up very soon. So get on top of it. I'm sure you will get the part. ~ Frederick Lenz
Being Italian quotes by Frederick Lenz
I looked up at Lee when we stopped in front of Hector and informed him helpfully, "You might want to take your arm away. Blanca tells me Hector doesn't like men touching me."
"Blanca told you that?" Lee asked, his smile (and arm) still firmly in place.
"Yes. She's known Hector, like, his whole life so I think she's in the position to know."
Lee nodded, his smile somehow bigger like he was trying not to laugh then his eyes moved to Hector and he said, "I tried to stop it."
Hector looked at Lee then looked at me then he muttered, "Oh fuck."
"It was Ally's idea," Lee told Hector.
"What was Ally's idea?" Hector asked Lee.
"It was not Ally's idea!" I cried.
"It wasn't!" super-power-eared Ally yelled from the open back window of Lee's Explorer. "It was Sadie's idea. I just was offering moral support."
"Shut up, Ally!" Indy shouted out the open passenger side window.
"I will not shut up! I'm not taking the fall for this one!" Ally shouted back.
I turned to the car, dislodging Lee's arm and lifted both my hands and pressed down. "No one's going to take a fall. Everyone calm down. It's all okay. It's rock 'n' roll!" I screamed.
"Righteous!" Ally screamed back.
"Rock on, sister!" Indy screamed too.
"It's rock 'n' roll?" Lee asked, sounding as amused as he looked.
"You all wanna quit screamin' at three o'clock in the mornin' in my fuckin' neighborhood?" Hector suggested.
Mm, well maybe we were being an een ~ Kristen Ashley
Being Italian quotes by Kristen Ashley
Her sarcasm was so quick, so fine at the point - it was like being touched by metal so cold that one doesn't know whether one is burned or chilled. ~ Willa Cather
Being Italian quotes by Willa Cather
Guilty she might be. But what human being was not? There were things in her past she needn't be ashamed of, things to be proud of; she wouldn't surrender so meekly to a condemning judgment. ~ John Jakes
Being Italian quotes by John Jakes
Music,' she said, in a languorous and dreamlike manner. 'Music is a betrayer of secrets; it is more treacherous even than dreams, which at least have the virtue of being private. ~ Rachel Cusk
Being Italian quotes by Rachel Cusk
Tomorrow, I am fifty-two years old. And I want to say unequivocally that I am very happy to be alive, that being alive is better than being dead. And if I have just one wish it is this: that you work with all your might and love with all your heart and never lose hope and never give up. ~ Betsy Lerner
Being Italian quotes by Betsy Lerner
Buddha is our inherent nature - our buddha nature - and what that means is that if you're going to grow up fully, the way that it happens is that you begin to connect with the intelligence that you already have. It's not like some intelligence that's going to be transplanted into you. If you're going to be fully mature, you will no longer be imprisoned in the childhood feeling that you always need to protect yourself or shield yourself because things are too harsh. If you're going to be a grown-up - which I would define as being completely at home in your world no matter how difficult the situation - it's because you will allow something that's already in you to be nurtured. You allow it to grow, you allow it to come out, instead of all the time shielding it and protecting it and keeping it buried. Someone once told me, "When you feel afraid, that's 'fearful buddha.'" That could be applied to whatever you feel. Maybe anger is your thing. You just go out of control and you see red, and the next thing you know you're yelling or throwing something or hitting someone. At that time, begin to accept the fact that that's "enraged buddha." If you feel jealous, that's "jealous buddha." If you have indigestion, that's "buddha with heartburn." If you're happy, "happy buddha"; if bored, "bored buddha." In other words, anything that you can experience or think is worthy of compassion; anything you could think or feel is worthy of appreciation. ~ Pema Chodron
Being Italian quotes by Pema Chodron
The world being broken. Maybe it isn't that we're supposed to find the pieces and put them back together. Maybe we're the pieces. - Nick ~ Rachel Cohn
Being Italian quotes by Rachel Cohn
As any man, I, of course, have certain preferences. Being a Scot by birth, I'm inclined to favor those with a well-scrubbed look and a hint of color in their cheeks-put there by an early walk in the chill air rather than by rouge. The smell of soap on a woman's skin or the hint of shampoo in her hair is perfume enough for me ... Humor is important. The most beautiful woman in the world is a bore without that. ~ David Niven
Being Italian quotes by David Niven
...but the worst thing is that Billy and I have been told nothing. It feels like when you're young, everyone thinks it's better not to tell you stuff. But they *should* tell you, because being young doesn't mean being stupid and I reckon we could handle being told the truth. Lies are the thing that hurt the most. ~ Lara Williamson
Being Italian quotes by Lara Williamson
Man's only hope lies in "final redemption from the misery of volition and existence into the painlessness of non-being and non-willing." No mortal may quit the task of life, but each must do his part to hasten the time when in the major portion of the human race the activity of the unconscious shall be ruled by intelligence, and this stage reached, in the simultaneous action of many persons volition will resolve upon its own non-continuance, and thus idea and will be once more reunited in the Absolute. ~ Karl Robert Eduard Von Hartmann
Being Italian quotes by Karl Robert Eduard Von Hartmann
My dreams are tangled in images of stars and clouds and firelight - we go camping at night - it's my lucid dream of being with you ... ~ John Geddes
Being Italian quotes by John Geddes
Maybe that's what love is, I thought: it's being pissed off. ~ Margaret Atwood
Being Italian quotes by Margaret Atwood
Being strong doesn't mean you can't be soft. Working hard to meet your goals doesn't mean you can't live. And living a certain way your entire life doesn't mean you can't ever change. Life is fluid. The only way to run yourself ashore is to not follow the change and contour of the curves. ~ Laurel Ulen Curtis
Being Italian quotes by Laurel Ulen Curtis
She raised an eyebrow. "You're very sure of yourself."
"When I want something, I go for it and I don't let anything stand in my way." He was silent for a moment as they stared at each other. She knew he was talking about more than the deal and damn her traitorous body, her nipples tightened at the thought of being on the receiving end of his pursuing nature. ~ Katie Reus
Being Italian quotes by Katie Reus
You still need to save but being debt-free in retirement is and should be a goal. ~ Michelle Singletary
Being Italian quotes by Michelle Singletary
I must write it all out, at any cost. Writing is thinking. It is more than living, for it is being concious of living. ~ Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Being Italian quotes by Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I do not rule out the possibility of being prime minister of India one day, but there is still time. ~ Lalu Prasad Yadav
Being Italian quotes by Lalu Prasad Yadav
Only elves and trolls had survived the coming of Man to the discworld: the elves because they were altogether too clever by half, and the trolley folk because they were at least as good as humans at being nasty, spiteful and greedy. ~ Terry Pratchett
Being Italian quotes by Terry Pratchett
I think I have a reputation for being really serious. In interviews I use big words, but I'm just an emotional goofball. I play practical jokes all the time. ~ Darren Hayes
Being Italian quotes by Darren Hayes
Put yourself in the position of an up-and-coming artist living in early-sixteenth-century Italy. Now imagine trying to distinguish yourself from the other artists living in your town: Michelangelo, Raphael, Leonardo, or Titian. Is it any wonder that the Italian High Renaissance lasted only 30 years? ~ Jerry Saltz
Being Italian quotes by Jerry Saltz
I cook everything from Italian to Cajun food. I have now mastered the roux for gumbo. I love cooking. ~ Yolanda Adams
Being Italian quotes by Yolanda Adams
Perhaps more important, it also showed that you could get away with being a little dangerous, provocative, or just plain deep if you did it with a smile on your face and remembered that entertainment always came first. When done right, it's possible to be silly and subversive at the same time. F ~ Brian Jay Jones
Being Italian quotes by Brian Jay Jones
This is the point being missed by readers who lament Liquor's lack of hot sex scenes, probably because they aren't old enough to understand that a passionate relationship could be about anything other than sex. ~ Poppy Z. Brite
Being Italian quotes by Poppy Z. Brite
I think that there's always great music being made. Always has been, always will be. ~ Robbie Robertson
Being Italian quotes by Robbie Robertson
Even in his books, where he's allegedly trying to string multiple thoughts together, Trump wanders randomly from impulse to impulse, seemingly without rhyme or reason. He doesn't think anything through. (He's brilliantly cast this driving-blind trait as "not being politically correct.") It ~ Matt Taibbi
Being Italian quotes by Matt Taibbi
What is success?" poses the Copt. "It is being able to go to bed each night with your soul at peace. ~ Paulo Coelho
Being Italian quotes by Paulo Coelho
Merely by being born intelligent, you right away find yourself in absolute exile. ~ Milan Kundera
Being Italian quotes by Milan Kundera
When you are up close to an opera singer, hearing this incredible volume of noise coming from a human being - it's beyond belief. ~ Eve Best
Being Italian quotes by Eve Best
We were only on orbit a little over two days, so we had no adverse effects from being weightless. ~ Robert Crippen
Being Italian quotes by Robert Crippen
There is a certain unique and strange delight about walking down an empty street alone. There is an off-focus light cast by the moon, and the streetlights are part of the spotlight apparatus on a bare stage set up for you to walk through. You get a feeling of being listened to, so you talk aloud, softly, to see how it sounds. ~ Sylvia Plath
Being Italian quotes by Sylvia Plath
I don't like being with grown-up people. I've known that a long time. I don't like it because I don't know how to get on with them. ~ Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Being Italian quotes by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Most of their leaders were evil and deceptive, and the majority of the populations followed like sheep being led to slaughter. I ~ Cameo Renae
Being Italian quotes by Cameo Renae
We each have unique gifts that draw us toward the work for which those gifts are best suited. Although a healthy, well-rounded person will generally engage the world on multiple levels, being as she is an individual, a friend, a member of a family, a member of a community and a place, an inhabitant of a bioregion, a citizen of a nation, and a member of the tribe of all life on Earth, even a cosmic citizen, it is also true that we go through phases of relative inward and outward focus, action, and quiet, expression and retreat. ~ Charles Eisenstein
Being Italian quotes by Charles Eisenstein
I get appalled when I see good drivers being left on the sidelines because they haven't come up with the half million to a million to put themselves in a competitive car. ~ John Surtees
Being Italian quotes by John Surtees
She's a manner of speaking.
Even the flowers don't come back, or the green leaves.
There are new flowers, new green leaves.
There are other beautiful days.
Nothing comes back, nothing repeats itself, because everything is real. ~ Alberto Caeiro
Being Italian quotes by Alberto Caeiro
Imagine saying to somebody that you have a life-threatening illness, such as cancer, and being told to pull yourself together or get over it.
Imagine being terribly ill and too afraid to tell anyone lest it destroys your career.
Imagine being admitted to hospital because you are too ill to function and being too ashamed to tell anyone, because it is a psychiatric hospital.
Imagine telling someone that you have recently been discharged and watching them turn away, in embarrassment or disgust or fear.
Comparisons are odious. Stigmatising an illness is more odious still. ~ Sally Brampton
Being Italian quotes by Sally Brampton
So said Tochihuitzin,
so said Coyolchiuhqui:

We come out of the dream suddenly,
we only come to dream,
it isn't true, it isn't true
that we come to live on the earth.
Like grass in spring
is our being.

Our heart makes them grow,
flowers sprout from our flesh.
Some open their corollas,
then they become dry.

So said Tochihuitzin. ~ Nezahualcoyotl
Being Italian quotes by Nezahualcoyotl
Being hot never hurts! ~ Debbie Harry
Being Italian quotes by Debbie Harry
It's not that I think you're a sad person in a sense of you being pathetic, it's different. I look in your eyes and I see your soul and I know how it feels. The way you kneel and those feelings of despair. All I wanted you to know is that I'm here. Regardless of my presence, you know I can and I will always be there for you. ~ Dominic Riccitello
Being Italian quotes by Dominic Riccitello
One of the worst incidents of that era caused no complaints at all: this was a sort of good-natured firepower demonstration, which occured one Sunday morning about three-thirty. For reasons that were never made clear, I blew out my back windows with five blasts of a 12 gauge shotgun, followed moments later by six rounds from a .44 Magnum. It was a prolonged outburst of heavy firing, drunken laughter, and crashing glass. Yet the neighbors reacted with total silence. For a while I assumed that some freakish wind pocket had absorbed all the noise and carried it out to sea, but after my eviction I learned otherwise. Every one of the shots had been duly recorded on the gossip log. Another tenant in the building told me the landlord was convinced, by all the tales he'd heard, that the interior of my apartment was reduced to rubble by orgies, brawls, fires, and wanton shooting. He had even heard stories about motorcycles being driven in and out the front door. ~ Hunter S. Thompson
Being Italian quotes by Hunter S. Thompson
You are not your virginity. You are a human being. The state of your hymen has nothing to do with your worth. ~ A.S. King
Being Italian quotes by A.S. King
The secret to being successful is to find a way to bring yourself through, even in your stories. People are looking for the essence of your truth. When you can bring your own truth to it, that's when it works. ~ Oprah Winfrey
Being Italian quotes by Oprah Winfrey
Pulling is optimal, being pushed is inevitable. ~ Jim Benson
