Mary Francis Kennedy Fisher Quotes
But I Can Say Just As Surely That This Minute, In A Northern-California Valley, I Can Taste-smell-hear-see And Feel Between My Teeth The Potato Chips I Ate Slowly One November Afternoon In 1936, In The Bar Of The Lausanne Palace. They Were Uneven In Both Thickness And Color, Probably Made By A New Apprentice In The Hotel Kitchen, And Almost Surely They Smelled Faintly Of Either Chicken Or Fish, For That Was Always The Case There. They Were A Little Too Salty, To Encourage Me To Drink. They Were Ineffable. I Am Still Nourished By Them. That Is Probably Why I Can Be So Firm About Not Eating My Way Through Barrels, Tunnels, Mountains More Of Them Here In The Land Where They Hang Like Square Cellophane Fruit On Wire Trees In All Grocery Stores, To Tempt Me Sharply Every Time I Pass Them.
