WE may live without poetry, music and art:
We may live without conscience, without heart:
We may live without friends, we may live without books,
But civilized man can not live without cooks.
He may live without books--what is knowledge but grieving?
He may live without hope--what is hope but deceiving?
He may live without love--what is passion but pining?
But where is the man that can live without dining?
Lord Lytton.
