Quote by Gina Barreca

Once we hit forty, women only have about four taste buds left: one for vodka, one for wine, one for cheese, and one for chocolate.

Once we hit forty, women only have about four taste buds lef

Summary

This quote humorously suggests that as women age, their taste preferences become simplified and focus primarily on indulgent pleasures. It implies that women develop a refined taste for specific indulgences like vodka, wine, cheese, and chocolate as they reach the age of forty. The quote humorously assumes that only these four items encompass a woman's range of taste buds, emphasizing the enjoyment of the finer things in life. However, it should be noted that this quote is meant to be taken as a light-hearted jest rather than a factual statement.

In spite of death, he felt the need of life and love. He felt that love saved him from despair, and that this love, under the menace of despair, had become still stronger and purer. The one mystery of death, still unsolved, had scarcely passed before his eyes, when another mystery had arisen, as insoluble, urging him to love and to life.
