| 3196334 | Base your preferred diet on any traditional eating style you like; the point is that once you get into the habit of eating sanely, it becomes second nature. | Mark Bittman | ||

| de76a45 | The Playwrights Unit offered writers an alternative to Broadway, where the financial stakes were high and led to creative decisions that weren't necessarily based on artistic considerations. At the Unit money didn't matter, because there wasn't any. Audiences came to see works in progress by new playwrights, some destined for obscurity, others for fame. Among those in the latter category were Sam Shepard, Adrienne Kennedy, Lanford Wilson, a.. | Julie Salamon | ||
| 555b73a | And it should not come as no shock that Big Food, along with the pharmaceutical industry and its scientists for hire, has promoted confusion in the media and in the mind of the American consumer to contribute to our culture of overconsumption. | Mark Bittman | ||
| 47770c5 | In any case, the principles are simple: deny nothing; enjoy everything, but eat plants first and most. There's no gimmick, no dogma, no guilt, and no food police. | Mark Bittman | ||
| 41d30d5 | For most of us, the idea is to get the number of calories it takes to maintain weight (or fewer, if we're trying to lose), along with a good balance of nutrients. And this is easy: As long as your diet isn't based on junk food, almost any diet that supplies you with enough calories will also supply you with adequate nutrition. | Mark Bittman | ||
| e54b822 | So the idea is to eat food that fills you up(and provides you with nutrients) without giving you more calories than you need. One way to make sure of that is to eat food with low caloric density, and this is less complicated than it sounds-believe me. | Mark Bittman | ||
| 413c3c7 | What determines how much cholesterol your liver makes? Not the cholesterol you eat but the kind of fat you eat. Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats tend to raise the good type of cholesterol while lowering the bad. Saturated fat, found most in animals, tends to be more or less neutral-not so bad, in small quantities at least-raising both types of cholesterol equally. | Mark Bittman | ||
| 57e66f1 | The evidence overwhelmingly supports a more traditional diet-what I'm calling sane eating-in place of the modern American diet. | Mark Bittman | ||
| 1aee7a4 | Eat all the plants you can manage. Literally. Gorge on them. Salads, cooked vegetables, raw vegetables, whole fruits- cooked or raw or even, in moderation, dried. There are hardly any limits here (though you don't want a diet based entirely on starchy vegetables like potatoes). | Mark Bittman | ||
| 3bea6cc | You shouldn't eat "unlimited" amounts of grains, as you would other plants, but eating grains several times a day is fine. -- In any case, eat far fewer carbohydrates; they are all treats, not off limits but to be eaten only occasionally (and with gusto)." | Mark Bittman | ||
| c2f4071 | It's more an affliction than the expression of any high-minded ideals. I watch Mark Bittman enjoy a perfectly and authentically prepared Spanish paella on TV, after which he demonstrates how his viewers can do it at home--in an aluminum saucepot--and I want to shove my head through the glass of my TV screen and take a giant bite out of his skull, scoop the soft, slurry-like material inside into my paw, and then throw it right back into his .. | Anthony Bourdain | ||
| 1732fbe | When it comes to fats, embrace olive oil. That's where you start. You can use butter when its flavor or luxury is really going to matter to you. Use peanut oil or grape seed oil for stir-frying (or any frying), use dark sesame or nut oil for extra flavor, and you really don't much else. --Don't worry too much about quantity. Don't start drinking oil, or eating fried food daily; but using oil for dressing or cooking is not a big deal, provid.. | Mark Bittman | ||
| 93a6700 | Listen to your body: Are you losing weight, feeling fine, getting results that makee you and your doctor happy? Keep it up. Are you not getting the results you want? Cut back on treats, and eat more plants. | Mark Bittman | ||

| b62fc3c | When you're creative, you render competition obsolete, because there is only one you, and no one can do things exactly the way you do. Never worry about the competition. When you're creative, you can, in fact, cheer others on with the full knowledge that their success will undoubtedly be your own. | Timothy Ferriss | ||
| 6afb508 | People say that what we're all seeking is a meaning for life. I don't think that's what we're really seeking. I think that what we're seeking is an experience of being alive." -Joseph Campbell" | Timothy Ferriss | ||
| 9860624 | There is nothing that the busy man is less busy with than living; there is nothing harder to learn." -Seneca" | Timothy Ferriss | ||

| 0b0e969 | Work hard to beat the competition." The truth is that competition is the opposite of creativity. If I am working hard to beat the competition, it actually prevents me from thinking creatively to make all concepts of competition obsolete." | Timothy Ferriss | ||
| 15dd08f | Creativity operates differently. You work hard because you're inspired to, not because you have to. Work becomes fun, and you have energy for days because this life is not a "young man's game." It is an "inspired person's game." The keys belong to whoever is inspired, and no specific age, sex, gender, or cultural background has a monopoly on inspiration." | Timothy Ferriss | ||
