Knowing they were in the same city again made the missing him flare up inside her. In her stomach. Why were people always going on and on about the heart? Almost everything Levi happened in Cath’s stomach.

Rainbow Rowell

And yeah, it got better. My stomach eventually went back to normal. I didn’t cry every day. But my heart. My heart will always be broken.

Susane Colasanti

It is very strange, this domination of our intellect by our digestive organs. We cannot work, we cannot think, unless our stomach wills so. It dictates to us our emotions, our passions.... 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

I aimed at the public's heart, and by accident I hit it in the stomach.

Eric Schlosser

... the stomach is near the heart and one appetite pricks on another.

Storm Jameson

The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.

Fanny Fern

To be happy, one must have a good stomach and a bad heart.

Bernard le Bovier de Fontenelle

The heart, like the stomach, wants a varied diet.

Gustave Flaubert

My heart shoots into my throat every time I think I see his loping walk, or catch sight of some floppy brown hair on a boy - but it's never him, and each time it isn't, my heart does a reverse trajectory down into the very pit of my stomach.
