“Happiness is.....finding two olives in your martini when you're hungry.”
Johnny Carson, ‘Happiness is a Dry Martini’

 

“The whole Mediterranean, the sculpture, the palm, the gold beads, the bearded heroes, the wine, the ideas, the ships, the moonlight, the winged gorgons, the bronze men, the philosophers -all of it seems to rise in the sour, pungent taste of these black olives between the teeth. A taste older than meat, older than wine. A taste as old as cold water.”
Lawrence Durrell (1912-1990) ‘Prospero's Cell’ (1945)
