The ideal kitchen-sink novel: Throw in everything but the kitchen sink. Then add the kitchen sink.

Edward Abbey

I got very cross with the term, kitchen sink. It just meant that you invaded different kinds of houses, where it was very difficult to avoid kitchen sink.

Timothy West

Life will throw everything but the kitchen sink in your path, and then it will throw the kitchen sink. It's your job to avoid the obstacles. If you let them stop you or distract you, you're not doing your job, and failing to do your job will cause regrets that paralyze you more than a bad back.

Andre Agassi

My kitchen witch hangs above the sink in my kitchen. Some people think it's specifically so that you don't burn food when you cook, but I like to think that it's warding off evil spirits and bad things in general.

Perfume Genius

I think if you listen to our records, they come at different points in your life. When people say to me that Stars records have themes, I think what they mean is we write songs - or try to write songs - that are timeless. We try to write songs that catch you at the right time in your life, and that you can hold on to. We write kitchen sink songs. If you're doing the dishes or you're driving to your mom's funeral, or if you're getting over having done MDMA and you feel sad, you can listen to Stars because we're not going to demand of you that you be cool.

Torquil Campbell

Christopher Reeve

You might be a redneck if you use a radiator hose to fix your kitchen sink.

Jeff Foxworthy

If I'm on holiday, I travel light, but if it is a work trip, I take everything but the kitchen sink.

Marie Helvin

When you've got a mountain to climb you may as well throw everything into the kitchen sink.

David Pleat

When one is able to overcome the romantic and emotional attitude, one discovers truth even in the kitchen sink.

Chogyam Trungpa

Sitting down at the table is a sacred event. It's the heart of the home. People have ginormous homes or crappy little homes, but the kitchen is where we always end up sitting. It's where the stories happen, the family happens.

Debi Mazar

At the end of a dinner at my house, my kitchen sink is filled with dishes and there's nothing pretty about the garbage.

Anthony Bourdain

I write because I have an innate need to. I write because I can't do normal work. I write because I want to read books like the ones I write. I write because I am angry at everyone. I write because I love sitting in a room all day writing. I write because I can partake of real life only by changing it.
