A Quote by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings

Two elements enter into successful and happy gatherings at table. The food, whether simple or elaborate, must be carefully prepared; willingly prepared; imaginatively prepared. And the guests - friends, family or strangers - must be conscious of their welcome.

In Israel, it always meant - and a lot of that is still true - there was only one kind of man you could be, there were no alternatives, no options.

Swami Vivekananda

D'Angelo Russell
