Everyone who gave me food, who took away my hunger, inspired me to compose. They told me their stories, and I had no other way to console them than with a piece of music, and that is how I learned. I did not resolve their problems with my songs, but I created a moment of release.
— Juan Gabriel

In France, cooking is a serious art form and a national sport.
The industrial stomach cannot live without coal; industry is a carbonivorous animal and must have its proper food.
