"Too few people understand a really good sandwich."

Edward Gibbon, historian

“There are sandwich shops in New York which offer the nobility and gentry a choice of no less than 100 different sandwiches, all of them alluring and some of them downright masterpieces.”

James Beard (1903-1985)


“He added that a Frenchman in the train had given him a great sandwich that so stank of garlic that he had been inclined to throw it at the fellow's head.”
Ford Madox Ford. ‘Provence’ (1935)


“When I was a boy there were only three kinds of sandwiches in common use - the ham, the chicken and the Swiss cheese. Others, to be sure, existed, but it was only as oddities.  Even the club sandwich was a rarity, and in most eating-houses it was unobtainable. The great majority of people stuck to the ham and the Swiss cheese, with the chicken for feast days and the anniversaries of historic battles.”
H.L. Mencken (1880-1956)


“My favorite sandwich is peanut butter, baloney, cheddar cheese, lettuce, and mayonnaise on toasted bread with catsup on the side.”
Hubert H. Humphrey (former Senator from Minnesota)
 

“I've got brown sandwiches and green sandwiches - it's either very new cheese or very old meat.”
Oscar Madison in 'The Odd Couple' by Neil Simon (Paramount Pictures, 1968)
