Total Quotes : 302
Like
Rather
It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words, like 'What about lunch?'
- A. A. Milne
Doing
I Think
I think you need to be intentional at times about your leadership - where you're eating lunch, who you're interacting with, making guys feel like you're interested in what they're doing. If it's authentic, then it's going to be an easy conversation and easy hangout time.
- Aaron Rodgers
Love
Like
I would love, obviously, someone like Gloria Steinem to do anything with me. We would obviously have to get lunch after, and she'd have to sign stuff for me.
- Abbi Jacobson
I Remember
Rooster
I remember, as a kid, I'd follow the rooster and the chickens and watch what type of grass they'd eat. And me and my friends would eat that grass, like that was our lunch.
- Adam Beach
Chicken
Every Day
I used to eat a whole chicken, every day, for lunch. I did that for four years. But it got tiring - go to the store, buy it, eat it. It's a mess.
- Adam Driver
Small
Other
The small businessman is smart; he realizes there's no free lunch. On the other hand, he knows where to go to get a good inexpensive sandwich.
- Adam Osborne
Ordering
Turned
The best compliment came from Knopf's Sonny Mehta. We were at lunch in New York with my editor, Gary Fisketjon, it was my first time meeting Sonny, and after ordering our food, he turned to me and said, 'Adam, I read 'Mr. Peanut' in two days; every page surprised me, and that, I can assure you, doesn't happen often.'
- Adam Ross
Happy
Rather
I like looking nice, but I always put comfort over fashion. I don't find thin girls attractive; be happy and healthy. I've never had a problem with the way I look. I'd rather have lunch with my friends than go to a gym.
- Adele
Thought
Couple
I thought I was Superman until I experienced that life-changing anaphylactic shock. I was eating lunch and gobbled down a couple of bowls of gumbo. Then, 15 minutes later, I'm in my dorm room resting up. My eyes started itching and my throat was swelling up. I could barely breathe.
- Adrian Peterson
Still
Which
I used to walk to Altman's on Saturdays for lunch at the Charleston Garden, which had a coconut cake that is still my favorite food in the world.
- Adriana Trigiani

Dad
My dad always supported me. Sometimes we didn't have anything to eat for breakfast, but if we could eat lunch and dinner, we weren't poor.
- Albert Pujols
Chicken
Couple
I like to eat Wheaties Fuel for breakfast with fresh fruit and egg whites. For lunch, I like to eat my wife's 'homerun chicken,' which is chicken, rice and vegetables, and for dinner I eat grilled steak or a couple of chicken breasts with rice and vegetables. During the day, I drink OhYeah! protein shakes as a snack.
- Albert Pujols
Chicken
Some
Make a stir-fried rice dish with some cut-up chicken and any vegetables folded into the rice for a 'one pot' meal lunch that has it all - protein, starch and vegetables.
- Alex Guarnaschelli
Mind
Cheaper
Make dinner with the goal of stretching it out for lunch in the back of your mind. Making more of one thing is cheaper than buying more varied ingredients for each meal.

Want
Private
Being followed is weird, that people want to discuss where I ate lunch or what I wear when I go to lunch... the private life is just gone.
- Alexander Skarsgard
Johnny Depp
Months
Apparently I had lunch with Johnny Depp when I was three months old.
- Alice Englert
Education
I Think
I really am at a place where I think we need to feed every child at school for free and feed them a real school lunch that's sustainable and nutritious and delicious. It needs to be part of the curriculum of the school in the same way that physical education was part of the curriculum, and all children participated.
- Alice Waters
Want
Delicious
I want every child in America to eat a nutritious, delicious, sustainably sourced school lunch for free.
- Alice Waters
Snack
Goes
I believe there should be breakfast, lunch and afternoon snack, all for free and for every child that goes to school. And all food that is good, clean and fair.
- Alice Waters
Lucky
Which
I was lucky enough to go to a school which gave flexibility around education and sport. We had a 1-hour, 30-minute lunch break, and were able to train during this time.
- Alistair Brownlee
Two
Rides
I was working, like, 14-hour days on 'Fargo,' and now if I schedule more than two things in a day, I'm like, 'Whoa, you guys. That's two train rides, and I have to plan for an hour-and-a-half lunch with my cat.'
- Allison Tolman
Fact
Decided
I'm a filmmaker who decided to go to culinary school. All I picked up was the fact if I didn't understand what was going on with every single ingredient, I could be qualifying for, like, the lunch food job at my daughter's school.
- Alton Brown
Yogurt
Our
It's an uphill battle to help our kids learn to make good food decisions - particularly when they are too often presented with an a la carte lunch room choice of french fries or yogurt.
- Amy Klobuchar
Egg
Need
I need to eat before a workout. If I exercise in the morning, I'll have a little oatmeal, cereal, or a hard-boiled egg with toast. If I go in the afternoon, I'll eat a turkey sandwich with cheese for lunch.
- Ana Ortiz
Doing
Against
I understand how hard it is to force yourself to be someone different. By the end of high school, I had taken to doing my math homework up against a concealed wall during lunch because I was tired of socializing.
- Andrea Seigel
Over
Same Thing
I used to have the same lunch every day, for 20 years, I guess, the same thing over and over again.
- Andy Warhol
Year
Available
I was a good novice teacher, but I did the things that were obvious. I stayed for lunch for extra tutoring, gave kids my cell phone, and was available. In my first year of teaching, I ended up doubling the math time that a conventional school would have. But I don't think any of these things were path-breaking or unusual.
- Angela Duckworth
Parking
Break
I bring my bike to work, and I make laps around our parking lot on my lunch break.
- Angela Kinsey
Political
I Think
I think the political class in Berlin doesn't need to be supervised and monitored by intelligence services in order to find out what they're thinking. Just go to lunch with them, go to dinner with them, or read the papers.
- Angela Merkel
Other
Some
When I'm not working, I would kill to have some sort of creative outlet other than, say, a coloring book. And when I'm working, I want to do all those things I was griping about - you know, make a turkey-and-cheese sandwich, put it in a zip-top bag, and stick it in a lunch box right now!
- Angie Harmon
Bring
Characterized
When every one of your arguments is characterized an attempt to bring back slavery or resegregate lunch counters, it's a little hard to have any sort of productive debate.
- Ann Coulter
Husband
Down
My husband is Dutch, and his family, when you sat down to eat food at the table, you never left the table until you ate living bread and drank living water. They never left the table until they'd read Scripture together. So morning, lunch, suppertime, Scripture was always read at the table, and then there was prayer to close.
- Ann Voskamp
My Life
Main Thing
I started to learn Greek when I was in high school, the last year of high school, by accident, because my teacher knew Greek and she offered to teach me on the lunch hour, so we did it in an informal way, and then I did it at university, and that was the main thing of my life.
- Anne Carson
Think
Over
I like company lunches because I think going out wastes valuable time; plus, a lot of good ideas come up over lunch.
- Anne Wojcicki
Weekends
Through
I refuse to work evenings or weekends. If a script sees my character meeting for dinner, I put a line through the words and make them meet for lunch.
- Armando Iannucci
Health
Think
My body is like breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I don't think about it, I just have it.
- Arnold Schwarzenegger
Bad
Tooth Fairy
What I'm not saying is that all government spending is bad. It's not - far, far from it, but there is no free lunch, as a former colleague of mine used to say. There is no public tooth fairy. Father Christmas does not work on the Treasury staff this year. You can never bail someone out of trouble without putting someone else into trouble.
- Arthur Laffer
Very
I Remember
I remember my first acting class: I was like, 'That's it.' If I know that I want to do something then I'm going to do it and there's no stopping me, whether it's if I want to take a movie part or don't, or eat sushi for lunch or don't. There's always a very clear goal. Once I figure out what I want that's it.
- Ashley Greene
Salad
Off
I try not to take much time off for lunch, so I usually end up with a tossed salad from the local deli.
- Aslaug Magnusdottir
Blank
Type
I only type every third night. I have no plan. My mind is a blank. I sit down. The typewriter gives me things I don't even know I'm working on. It's a free lunch. A free dinner. I don't know how long it is going to continue, but so far there is nothing easier than writing.
- Charles Bukowski
Next
Private
I literally got a private invite for lunch with the Queen. There was just 10 of us. And I was absolutely petrified because you can't take anyone with you, and no other sportspeople were there. There was the head of the military, and then the Queen sat next to me.
- Charlotte Dujardin
More
Like
In France, you're with the crew, and you have lunch with them. It's more like a family.
- Charlotte Gainsbourg
Salad
Some
I was at lunch with some friends one day, and we looked down at our table - blond pasta, blond pizza - and then someone joked, 'Blonde salad,' and it stuck.
- Chiara Ferragni
Good
Fever
When the surf is really good, it's hard for me to concentrate on work. So I really have to watch when and where I surf - I won't get anything done if I get the fever. Then it's like I come into work and I'm wet and waterlogged and ready for lunch.
- Chris Carter
Feel
Endless
It's difficult to feel as though you are truly being effective at work. Many of us feel trapped in endless meetings, with barely any time to grab lunch, let alone do any work. Overarching strategies and key priorities seem completely divorced from the day-to-day tactics.
- Chris Fussell
Will
Middle
I will not serve lunch to anyone in the middle of a workday. I rarely rearrange my furniture or cabinets; once I find a drawer for something, it stays there. I don't garden. And I don't knit.
- Christina Baker Kline
Anyone
Several
Really, can anyone drink several martinis at lunch?
- Christine Baranski
Checking
Bowls
My earliest memories of my mom were of her multi-tasking - preparing dinner while checking on homework and housework; clearing the dinner plates while setting out bowls for breakfast; making sure we ate our breakfast while lining up bread, lunch meats, apples, and snacks assembly-line style so we could make our lunches.
- Christine Pelosi
Needs
Able
To be a good producer, one needs to be able to eat lunch, and make ill-informed decisions.
- Cindy Morgan
Week
I Think
I have a huge breakfast every morning because I never know if I'll have time for lunch, especially during Fashion Week. It keeps my mood positive all day. And my parents taught me to have tons of fruit and vegetables, which I think helps my skin.
- Constance Jablonski
Like
Musical
How do I put this? 'Glee' is like 'High School Musical' if 'High School Musical' had its stomach punched and its lunch money stolen.
- Cory Monteith
Love
I Remember
I love Westerns and I remember as a kid climbing up on the couch and make it into a saddle and shoot guns and fall off. I would lay there after my death and my mom would tell me to eat lunch and I'd say, 'I'm still dead, Mom!' I was Method, even then.
- Creed Bratton
Grow
Yard
I grow my own vegetables and herbs. I like being able to tell people that the lunch I'm serving started out as a seed in my yard.
- Curtis Stone
Back
Deli
Every time - well, not every time, but in celebration of a great review or a great accolade, I take the team of Daniel to Katz's Deli for lunch. We take the trip on the subway, we were like 40 or 50 people, and we go in the back room and have a pastrami sandwich.
- Daniel Boulud
Doing
Remarkably
There are two types of courage involved with what I did. When it comes to picking up a rifle, millions of people are capable of doing that, as we see in Iraq or Vietnam. But when it comes to risking their careers, or risking being invited to lunch by the establishment, it turns out that's remarkably rare.
- Daniel Ellsberg
Always
Opposed
It's always imperative to improve and to remain dynamic - or you'll become lunch, as opposed to serving it.
- Danny Meyer
Sexuality
Telling
You're in high school, and you're telling your friends that you're skipping lunch to go write poetry, and they were all questioning my sexuality.
- Dave Franco
Another
Hamlet
Few areas which are not publicly owned can boast as many footpaths as the Cuckmere Valley. For a short walk, a footbridge across the river leads back to the little hamlet of Milton Street, where another classic local pub, the Sussex Ox, provides an admirable lunch.
- David Hewson
Challenges
Activity
Educators and school personnel work on the front lines of childhood obesity, but every day they face the challenges of budget cuts, mandated tests, rushed lunch periods, and a decrease in time for physical activity.
- Dean Ornish
Chef
Every Day
I have a full Tuscan lunch and dinner every day in my home; my husband's a fantastic chef.
- Debi Mazar
Every Day
Seven
Lunch is formal - that's when my husband and I have our dates. And dinner is formal: we sit down every day with the kids at seven o' clock.
- Debi Mazar
Bankers
Contractors
Politicians attend dinners at hotels with contractors. Bankers discuss interest rates at lunch.
- Jimmy Breslin
Chicken
Big
On a really good day, if I'm really trying, in the morning I'll have a piece of toast, vitamins and nuts, or a bagel with a little cream cheese. Then at lunch time, I'll get me one of those Chinese chicken salads, a glass of juice, and a big glass of water.
- Jo Marie Payton
My Life
Give
But I have had to give up certain things in my life. One is shopping. Two is lunch with the girls. Three is cocktail parties, and four is studying my lines.
- Joan Collins
Level
Least
There's no such thing as a free lunch, at least on the karmic level.
- Joan D. Vinge
Need
Reform
We need to reform our school lunch programs. We need to get healthy items into the vending machines.
- Joan Lunden
Snack
Big
I quite often don't have breakfast, and I never have lunch. I find it helps not to wake my stomach up because if I had a good big breakfast, I would be ready for a snack at 11 and then a three-course lunch, then I'd be ready for tea, then a cocktail and then an enormous dinner.
- Joanna Lumley
Humble
I Think
Swedes are a really humble and shy people in many ways, but I think it's pretty much the same as in the U.S. Little girls want to take photographs with me at lunch.
- Joel Kinnaman
Rock And Roll
Roll
So we got there at 6 a.m. We'd be shooting by 6:45. We wouldn't break for lunch, we'd just pass food around all day. And we would just rock and roll 'til 4, then Matty Libatique, our great cinematographer, would say, 'Outta light, guys' - and that was it.
- Joel Schumacher
Museums
Take
I spend all day in museums. I even eat my lunch in the museum, and I take a nap for one hour there.
- John Gokongwei
Death
Till
Move to Italy. I mean it: they know about living in debt; they don't care. I stayed out there for five months while I was making a film called 'Order Of Death,' and they've really got it sussed. Nice cars. Sharp suits. Great food. Stroll into work at 10. Lunch from 12 till three. Leave work at five. That's living!
- John Lydon
Reaching
How
If you watch a group of schoolchildren eating lunch together, you cannot help but notice how it is a comically Lilliputian version of the adult thing - the cocked eyebrows of conversation, the reaching for condiments, the shovelling of food into tiny mouths.
- John Niven
Week
Put
I've forgotten the birthdays of everyone close to me. I have forgotten to pay bills, file tax returns on time, go to meetings, and, every week, I forget to put the bins out. But I have never forgotten I want my lunch.
- John Niven
May
Directed
Women consume, and they must be directed what to consume, or they may identify you as lunch.
- John Patrick Shanley
Maybe
Comments
Please watch a little less television. Maybe post a few less comments about the lunch you had today.
- John Skipper
Other
Other Kids
I didn't have a good childhood because I never could get along with other kids. I was the child that sat in the corner eating lunch by herself.
- Jolene Blalock
Birthday
Spun
I was born full grown in the middle of a hurricane and an earthquake on 10 September 1954, 12.52 P.M. When I found out that I had missed lunch, I gave such a shout that the Earth stopped and spun backwards two days. That's why I celebrate my birthday on 8 September.
- Jon Scieszka
Very
Mayonnaise
There's nothing very exotic about classic Chilean street food. Imagine a hot dog hidden beneath an explosion of mayonnaise and ketchup. Cost? Twenty-five to 30 pence. This is the completo, an all-purpose solution to breakfast, lunch or, once, the curiously English teatime snack enjoyed by Chileans of all ages.
- Jonathan Franklin
Money
Picked
No one picked on me for my lunch money. Probably because it was the 1980s and no one had lunch money.
- Jonathan Rhys Meyers
Love
Prepare
I often go to lunch meetings with my agent, a gallerist or a casting director, but if not, I stay at home and prepare my own food because I love to cook. I'm great at pasta, fish and nice salads.
- Jordi Molla
Phone Calls
Which
I know how many days in which I have just answered e-mail, had three phone calls and a two hour lunch. Poof, gone. They are not infrequent.
- Joseph Epstein
Sometimes
Bed
I breakfast when I get up, lunch when I get the chance. If I never get it, I forget it. Sometimes I dine at seven, sometimes at midnight, sometimes not at all; and I never get to bed until four or five in the morning. Everything depends on the news; the hours make no difference to me.
- Joseph Pulitzer
Going
Movie
I can direct breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I take pride in my kitchen, but I'm not going to direct a movie.
- Julia Roberts
Had
Ate
I had a hard time with bullying. I ate lunch in the bathroom.
- Julianne Hough
Allow
Very
I'm not very into pastas or heavy foods like meat, but pastries, especially if they come from a really nice French bakery, I go crazy over! I try to allow myself those little treats in the morning for breakfast, then I have a lighter lunch.
- Barbara Fialho
Free
Free Lunch
There is no such thing as a free lunch.
- Barry Commoner
Beauty
Get
The beauty of diversification is it's about as close as you can get to a free lunch in investing.
- Barry Ritholtz
Hall
Magnificent
In the cold and snow-rich Silesian winters, there were hour-long rides on Sundays in horse-drawn sleighs to my maternal grandparent's farm to have lunch and to spend the afternoon. The house was a magnificent 18th-century manor house in the nearby Altgabel with a great hall that was decorated with hunting trophies.
- Gunter Blobel
Like
Some
I usually like to throw on some flip flops and go to a really nice lunch in Venice, or Santa Monica, or stay in and cook dinner.
- Ben Savage
Regret
Use
With my time in the limelight, I regret that I didn't use it more to push vegetarianism. I support vegetarian options in the school lunch program.
- Bernhard Goetz
Auditions
Plays
I've done plays where you get into the run and can go to auditions during the day, or can have lunch with someone, and then you go to half-hour and show up.
- Betty Gilpin
Egg
Always
I always have breakfast, say, scrambled egg whites, a vegetable smoothie, or whole-grain cereal with low-fat milk. For lunch and dinner, I eat a lot of fish and vegetables. And throughout the day, I try to stay hydrated.
- Beyonce Knowles
New
Been
The biggest challenge in New Orleans has been to find workers who can climb a ladder after lunch.
- Harry Anderson
Kindergarten
Unborn
But people that are worried about unborn babies are the same ones that vote against kindergarten programs in Indiana or school lunch funds out of the federal government.
- Birch Bayh
Computer
Put
In a job where you're on a computer all day, and we cater lunch and we put snacks in the kitchen, well, we all started gaining weight, even though we try to pick healthy stuff, but inevitably you find the cashews.
- Biz Stone
Friends
Dinner
Oh, my friends, be warned by me, That breakfast, dinner, lunch and tea, Are all human frame requires.
- Hilaire Belloc
Purpose
Doing
I'd dropped out of high school without really doing it on purpose - I'd just go home at lunch 'cos I didn't have friends, then stay there all afternoon listening to rap. It got to the point where I wouldn't have passed even if I'd gone back. I was depressed, basically.
- Iggy Azalea
Doing
Commercial
Mars is really different, into art. Lydia Lunch is more energy. James Chance is more commercial in a different way, in funk and jazz. They were all doing original things, trying to create their own sound and music. I think they're all great.
- Ikue Mori
Soup
Big
My favorite fall or winter lunch is big steaming bowls of soup. I usually invite people for around 12:30 and have two hearty soups like shrimp corn chowder and lentil sausage soup, which can be made a day or two ahead.
- Ina Garten
Going
Starving
When you have something for breakfast, you're not going to be starving by lunch.
