Rock Food Quotes


Salt is the only rock directly consumed by man. It corrodes but preserves, desiccates but is wrested from the water. It has fascinated man for thousands of years not only as a substance he prized and was willing to labour to obtain, but  also as a generator of poetic and of mythic meaning. The contradictions it embodies only intensify its power and its links with experience of the sacred.”

Margaret Visser, 20th century author

 

    “A pasty costly-made,     
    Where quail and pigeon, lark and leveret lay,     
    Like fossils of the rock, with golden yolks     
    Imbedded and injellied.”
    Alfred, Lord Tennyson, ‘Audley Court’ (1842)
