“We are but the veriest, sorriest slaves of our stomach.
Reach not after morality and righteousness, my friends;
watch vigilantly your stomach, and diet it with care and judgment.
Then virtue and contentment will come and reign within your heart,
unsought by any effort of your own; and you will be a good citizen,
a loving husband, and a tender father—a noble, pious man.”
~ Jerome K. Jerome, Three Men in a Boat
