Marilyn Monroe
American - Actress
June 1, 1926 - August 5, 1962

Fame to me certainly is only a temporary and a partial happiness ... fame is not really for a daily diet, that's not what fulfills you. It warms you a bit but the warming is temporary. It's like caviar, you know - it's good to have caviar but not when you have to have it every meal and every day.

Marilyn Monroe

Larry David

Television is a golden goose that lays scrambled eggs; and it is futile and probably fatal to beat it for not laying caviar. Anyway, more people like scrambled eggs than caviar.

Lee Loevinger

My most memorable meal was with my parents at Joel Robuchon's Restaurant Jamin in Paris. It was Christmas 1982, and the flavors - from cauliflower and caviar to crab and tomato - astounded me. It was the first time I remember thinking that I would like to really learn how to cook.

It was part of theTexas ritual? We know about champagne and caviar but we talk hog and hominy.

I eat leftover caviar by hand, with baked potato, like peasants.

Ion Tiriac

Having a show get canceled is like, 'Oh, you have caviar between your teeth,' you know what I mean? Because you had a show in the first place.

Jonathan Ames

I love quinoa. It's great, it cooks like rice and is better than caviar.

Clotilde Hesme

Always do the things you fear the most. Courage is an acquired taste, like caviar.

Erica Jong

Caviar used to be my drug of choice, but since my husband is on a no-salt diet, I've kind of given it up. I still have dreams of sitting down and gorging, though. I love it with a good vodka; I don't like it with champagne.

Iris Apfel

Wit is like caviar - it should be served in small portions and not spread about like marmalade.

Noel Coward
