Deep Connections

On Adam and Eve eating at the wrong restaurant: "Though the consequences of their eating were both less and more than they had bargained for, though it gave them psychic indigestion, and though true wisdom eluded them, we have it on high authority that they in some sense succeeded: "Now the man is become like one of us..." God Almighty knew the world was arranged so as to contain deep connections among human eating, human freedom, and human moral self-consciousness...we too seek wisdom through eating..." - Leon Kass, The Hungry Soul
