The belly is the reason why man does not mistake himself for a god.–Friedrich Nietzsche, 1886

Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900) was a German philosopher of the late 19th and early 20th century who challenged the foundations of Christianity and traditional morality. Central to his philosophy is the idea of “life-affirmation,” which involves an honest questioning of all doctrines that drain life’s expansive energies, however socially prevalent those views might be.

At a dinner party one should eat wisely but not too well, and talk well but not too wisely.–W. Somerset Maugham, 1896

W. Somerset Maugham was an English playwright, novelist and short story writer, who also had a medical degree and qualified as a surgeon. He did not practice medicine, but instead made us of his medical background in his writing, as in his 1897 novel Liza of Lambeth, which was a tale of working class adultery.

Switzerland: Watermelon and Fennel Salad Recipe

by Jenn Oliver

Until recently, I didn’t know anyone did anything with a watermelon besides just cut it up and eat it. I mean, it’s already completely sweet, juicy, the pure essence of summer. Why mess with the perfection embodied in this pink fruit? The mere sight of a ripe watermelon evokes memories of childhoods past. For me, it evokes images of weeks at girl scout camp, running around outside, carefree, swimming in the lake, making new friends, riding horses…you get the idea.

But why not play, and see just where the flavor of this fruit can go? Have you ever thought about the flavors of this king of summertime snacks and how they would meld with other foods? I certainly hadn’t until Meeta challenged us Plate to Page alumni to photograph watermelon as a fun photography assignment — two photos — one raw, and one in a dish. Yes, a dish. Who puts watermelon in things? Ha, maybe it was time to change my perspective and open my eyes to other possibilities.

Perspective is a funny thing. Sometimes our first impressions have such a profound effect on us that we forget to look for other possibilities right in front of our noses. I think that’s why I like to go for walks and hikes, because all that time away from everything gives my mind space to think and breathe. And sometimes, I even get to get lost and freak out after sitting at a train station for 30 minutes until I figure out that the train only passes through on weekdays…

It is a hard matter, my fellow citizens, to argue with the belly, since it has no ears.–Cato the Elder

Cato the Elder was a Roman statesman, referred to as “The Elder” to distinguish him from his great great grandson, Cato the Younger. Although a highly distinguished statesman, he deserves more notice as an author of the first history of Rome, written in Latin.
