Food compulsion isn't a character disorder; it's a chemical disorder.
— Robert Atkins
I've learned to sell my music, I've learned to direct, I've written screenplays... All of this fulfilled my artistic needs but also put food on the table.
— Robby Benson
What's my favorite food besides pancakes? I guess it would be flapjacks, followed closely by hotcakes. After that, crepes... but thick crepes. Y'know, like, pancake-thick.
— Rob Riggle
I don't really eat breakfast that often. I'm a bacon guy. I like breakfast food, but I don't really eat food until after noon, so by that time, that's not really breakfast.
— RJ Mitte
The first time I had sushi, I hated it. And the second time was no different, and then, I just started loving it. I actually crave for sushi. It's one of the healthiest meals. My experiments with food began when I was working in New York as an architect, be it Korean or Ethiopian food or fusion food.
— Riteish Deshmukh
The best food I've had was actually in catering at 'Single Ladies.' It's insane. I can't live in Atlanta. In fact, even if I'm offered, I'm not sure I could come back for another six months, because I'll just be fat.
— Ricky Whittle
I was David Bowie-thin up to about 28, and then I discovered food.
— Ricky Gervais
I come from great stock. I didn't come from money. My parents both worked really hard to keep food on the table and give my sister and me opportunities to play sports and see what we were good at.
— Rickie Fowler
When you're vegan, you spend your time chasing protein, and you're eating food that's way too high in carbs. I could never catch up on protein.
— Rick Rubin
I organised a charity game in my hometown, and we collected three tonnes of food for the people of the town.
— Richarlison
I have 40 pounds to lose. It is not the fault of the fast food people, and anyone who's trying to sue the fast food places needs a therapist, not an attorney.
— Richard Simmons
Well mine is not gimmicky - it is the 6 food groups that God made, and exercising every day. Trying to think positively.
No one believes this, but when I'm working, it's the same, whether I'm working on 'Bad News Bears,' 'Before Sunset,' 'A Scanner Darkly,' or 'Fast Food Nation.' I'm the same person, trying to make it work.
— Richard Linklater
School is where children spend most of their time, and it is where we lay the foundation for healthy habits. That's why New Jersey is the first state to adopt a comprehensive school nutrition policy that bans candy, soda, and other junk food.
— Richard J. Codey
Football's a war game without fatal casualties; baseball is a picnic on a huge field, without the food.
— Richard Corliss
I grew up in Harlem. My grandmother was one of the best cooks around, but the first thing she did on Sunday mornings when she started cooking a daylong meal was to take a big block of lard from the back of the refrigerator and throw it into the pan. I know how Hispanics buy their food, and it is not always nutritious.
— Richard Carmona
Real food shakes. Those are my favorite.
— Rich Piana
Nobody had ever told me junk food was bad for me. Four years of medical school, and four years of internship and residency, and I never thought anything was wrong with eating sweet rolls and doughnuts, and potatoes, and bread, and sweets.
I like me food. I also don't like me exercising. It's something me don't do very well. But it's something I've got to get into.
— Robbie Williams
The one thing that I'm in charge of in this wedding is the food.
— Rob Mariano
The picture of me as a child is that I was always with a ball - that's why I was so skinny: I would miss dinner. Mum would have to leave me some food in the microwave.
— Riyad Mahrez
We make authentic Maharashtrian food at home. My mother supervises the preparation and the menu every day. She has been doing this since before I was born. I absolutely love the mutton sukka that she makes.
Unlike other Jewish families, we didn't go out for Chinese food on Sundays, but we spent our time in a world of baking powder biscuits and the best shrimp cocktails that ever were.
— Ricky Jay
If I just cut out the food, I'd have a six-pack. I'd look like Matthew McConaughey.
After he retired, Dad worked at my uncle's boat company, a camp for kids, and eventually became County Commissioner for a term. He is known around town, works at the Food Pantry my mother helped start, and is a very serious member of Kiwanis.
— Rick Tumlinson
There's a song called 'Live Blogging the Himmel Family Bris.' I kind of went for it here in terms of - it was really fun to be explaining ritual circumcision in Nashville - a lot of brises are done in hospitals, but many are done in people's homes, and there's a lot of food, and a lot of leftovers.
— Rick Moranis
Real people have trouble balancing their checkbooks, much less calculating how much they need to save for retirement; they sometimes binge on food, drink, or high-definition televisions. They are more like Homer Simpson than Mr. Spock.
— Richard Thaler
People have been frying foods since Jesus was on this planet, and there is always going to be greasy, fried, salty, sugary food. It is up to the individual to walk in and say, 'I don't want those fries today.'
Art, unlike the trades in the artistic capacity of fashion and food, can literally be anything. It can be the negation of itself and conceptually not present.
— Richard Phillips
I've always been interested in the industrialization of our food; it's been an issue for me from an environmental and animal rights and human health perspective.
My ancestors came from Co Roscommon, transported to Van Diemen's Land for stealing food.
— Richard Flanagan
I remember in one parish a terrible row over the ideal size of mince pies, and in another two great ladies dashing trays of pancakes to the vicarage floor in a controversy over whether to roll or to fold. But the real arena for food combat is television.
— Richard Coles
We moved to America when I was young, but we were always very Welsh in our home. The humor, food, traditions. Very Welsh.
— Richard Brake
I very rarely shop. The only money I spend is on, like, Uber and food.
— Rich Brian
There is no way that writers can be tamed and rendered civilized or even cured. The only solution known to science is to provide the patient with an isolation room, where he can endure the acute stages in private and where food can be poked in to him with a stick.
— Robert A. Heinlein
If I've got food and water, as long as I can exercise my mind and keep it nimble, then I'll be okay.
— Rob Walton
I love to try the local food wherever I am. But I'm not that adventurous when it comes to eating. I prefer to be safe. I have failed at eating some daring food.
— RM
I feel that people who think it's okay to barely eat are wrong. There has to be a good balance of diet, food, and workout for your body to stay in good shape, always!
— Rithvik Dhanjani
Even my early memories of Chandni Chowk are all about food.
— Rishi Kapoor
In the winters, I enrolled in the hotel management program at Cornell University. I naively thought that I knew something about sleight-of-hand, entertainment and food, and that would be all I needed.
I like flying to New York from London. It's like a day off for me. No phone or e-mails. Food, wine, iPod, movies, snoozing.
I watch the Food Network with my kids. We - yeah, I - I - I generally don't admit that, but I love cooking.
— Rick Santorum
I love that we are bringing the flavors of Frontera to Los Angeles. I think we can only add to the booming food community in Los Angeles. Our food is gutsy and soulful.
— Rick Bayless
Clean water is a great example of something that depends on energy. And if you solve the water problem, you solve the food problem.
— Richard Smalley
We're all in trouble, and we all need to sort of pick up the pieces and start to exercise more and really be careful with the food.
Very rarely does food enhance the conversation. If the food is really good, there'll be much less conversation because you'd be concentrating too much on the food.
— Richard Lugar
Modern genetic engineering makes producing GMO food products relatively easy. GMOs can improve crop yield and greatly enhance the nutritional value of those same crops.
— Richard J. Roberts
Tortoises can survive for weeks without food or water, easily long enough to float in the Humboldt Current from South America to the Galapagos Islands.
— Richard Dawkins
Food as sport is nothing new. To a vicar, especially, church catering has represented the conduct of war by other means for many years.
In humans, smell is often viewed as an aesthetic sense, as a sense capable of eliciting enduring thoughts and memories. Smell, however, is the primal sense. It is the sense that affords most organisms the ability to detect food, predators, and mates.
— Richard Axel
