Famous quotes containing the word ingredients:

    “A sociosphere of contact, control, persuasion and dissuasion, of exhibitions of inhibitions in massive or homeopathic doses...: this is obscenity. All structures turned inside out and exhibited, all operations rendered visible. In America this goes all the way from the bewildering network of aerial telephone and electric wires ... to the concrete multiplication of all the bodily functions in the home, the litany of ingredients on the tiniest can of food, the exhibition of income or IQ.”
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    “In all cultures, the family imprints its members with selfhood. Human experience of identity has two elements; a sense of belonging and a sense of being separate. The laboratory in which these ingredients are mixed and dispensed is the family, the matrix of identity.”
    —Salvador Minuchin (20th century)

    “This even-handed justice
    Commends th’ ingredients of our poisoned chalice
    To our own lips.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
