When I'm not working, I would kill to have some sort of

When I’m not working, I would kill to have some sort of creative outlet other than, say, a coloring book. And when I’m working, I want to do all those things I was griping about – you know, make a turkey-and-cheese sandwich, put it in a zip-top bag, and stick it in a lunch box right now!

Kevin McCarthy
I don’t like apartments – the idea of other people living, copulating and defecating above me – they make me feel as trapped as a slice of ham in a sandwich.

I can’t stand going to those sandwich bars where you’ve got to choose your own stuff, because I don’t know what goes together. It does my head in. I’d rather them tell me. I’m not the expert. I haven’t spent years learning these different combinations.
Rhys Darby
Smurfs must only eat Smurfberries. They can eat Smurfberry pie, they can have a Smurfberry sandwich, they can do whatever they want. But you can’t have a Subway sandwich. It’s got to be Smurfberries.

Lisa Lampanelli
I shout at the radio when someone starts talking over the end of a song. Shut up! I don’t want to hear that the DJ has just found a mouldy sandwich in the corner of the studio. Nor do I like it when the magic of something you’re watching is shattered by an advert for Argos.
Jessica Brown Findlay

Judy Norton
The difference between the American version of ‘Live Aid’ and the British one – in England, if you wanted a cup of tea, you made it yourself. If you wanted a sandwich, you bought it. In typical American style, at the American concert, there were laminated tour passes and champagne and caviar.

Shaun King
I think that every show on television has its place. I think Married With Children or, I don’t know, The Nanny… some people want to go home, turn on the TV and be able to iron their clothes or grab a sandwich. Come out and catch a joke and not have to follow the story.
Peter Krause
Cape Cod baseball dates back to the time of the Civil War. A poster at the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown touts a round-trip train ride from Hyannis to Sandwich on July 4, 1885 – the occasion of the 14th annual baseball game between Sandwich and Barnstable.
Jane Leavy
Fast food is the one thing everyone can relate to. It's

Fast food is the one thing everyone can relate to. It’s depressing, but also interesting, that people desire to eat the same sandwich in every single city in the world. But the biggest bummer is when you see a Subway in Berlin. Just devastating.
Patrick Carney

Ron White
In Porto, you have to eat francesinha. Translated, it means ‘little French girl.’ It’s this sandwich of bread, ham, and a lot of beef sausage or other meats. Then you put melted cheese on the top. The special thing about it is the sauce. Each house makes a special secret sauce, and it’s usually a bit spicy.
Sara Sampaio
I like using iconic things. What fine dining restaurant can get you to eat a breakfast sandwich that’s like baby food?

Adrianne Palicki
A Jewish deli should specialize in, first and foremost, Yiddish foods, the foods of the Eastern European Ashkenazi Jews. So, if it’s a place that specializes in pizza or chicken wings or diner food and then does a corned beef sandwich on the side, it’s not a Jewish delicatessen.
David Sax
A month before the season, I don’t order fries with my club sandwich.

Dexter Filkins
I missed a tuna-fish sandwich with mayo on toasted wheat bread more than anything. Six months after I went vegan, I snuck into a deli and took one home. And, of course, it wasn’t nearly as good as I fantasized. It tasted, well, fishy.
Kathy Freston
If I’m going to make something in the kitchen, even if it’s something as simple as a sandwich, I will take the extra time to make it a great sandwich instead of just an average sandwich. I don’t mind investing a little extra work to make something special.
Kyle MacLachlan

Nina Agdal
The best thing I can make is a peanut butter-and-jelly sandwich.
Mario Diaz-Balart

Fred DeLuca
I need to eat a large meal before I play, and the one thing that was kind of consistent in every single clubhouse at least in the minors was a roast beef sandwich. So that kind of stuck there, and it just kind of stuck in the big leagues as well.
Max Scherzer
Acknowledging that there’s something you desire, not going after it, and deciding that, ‘You know what, it’s fine; I’ll just focus on what I do have, make myself a ham sandwich, and call it a day,’ isn’t happiness. It’s denial.

Laura Loomer

Lapo Elkann
Throughout the course of the day, I’ll have a GoMacro bar here and there, I’ll have a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, I’ll have another protein drink, I’ll have at least two protein drinks on the golf course, at every six holes, and then after the round I’ll have one.
Bryson DeChambeau

Anna Quindlen
A misperception about anorexia is that you don’t eat. Not true. Maybe you eat just 500 calories a day. It would be easy for me to say, ‘Why didn’t my parents notice?’ But I didn’t want them to. I made sure to eat half a sandwich around my parents.
Brittany Snow
At my school, they have an ice cream special sometimes, and they have this ice cream sandwich, except the sandwich part is like an Oreo and the inside like cookies n’ cream ice cream. I love that.

I make a mean tuna fish sandwich.

Marco Pierre White

Sue Hubbell
Instead of a sandwich, you’re much better off enjoying a delicious and filling supper of around 400 calories – and that will see you right through until bedtime.
Dave Myers
Millions of Americans recognize the right of private businesses to donate to any cause they choose; that if one doesn’t want to patronize a chicken sandwich business, one can certainly buy fast food anywhere they want.
Mike Gallagher
When you hire Sam Jackson, he’ll figure out the character, and he’ll figure out the character’s look, and he’ll provide it to you. With Sam Jackson, you basically yell ‘action’, you go get a sandwich, and you come back and yell ‘cut.’
Rod Lurie
There may be a perception that, with franchises, they’re all the same, so that limits the ability to experiment. But that’s not true. We’ve always kept two slots open on the menu of each Subway franchise – slots that franchisees can use to come up with their own sandwich ideas.
Fred DeLuca
My mother made a lot of things because she thought they’d be healthy for us. There were some very unfortunate experiences with whole wheat bread and bananas. I always tried to get rid of that sandwich and eat one of my friends’ lunches.

Vijay Singh won a playoff in 2004 at Whistling Straits after a final-round 76, which was the highest last round by the winner of any major since 1938, when Reg Whitcombe won the British Open with a 78 in a storm that blew down the exhibition tent at Sandwich.
Dan Jenkins
I write at home. I like to be able to take a nap, watch TV, make a sandwich, and if I wake up and don’t feel like working, I’m not going to bang my head on my desk all day: I’ll go out and do something else.
Colson Whitehead
The Sandwich Islands are not the same as Otaheite nor as the Fijis, from which they are distant about 4,000 miles, nor are their people of the same race. The natives are not cannibals, and it is doubtful if they ever were so. Their idols only exist in missionary museums.
Isabella Bird
Enjoy every sandwich.
Warren Zevon
I tour a lot and interview a lot. I’m on the Internet and doing stuff. I go out and promote. I’ve got a bass drum and a sandwich sign and a washboard. You just have to shout louder and louder that you’re still alive.
Al Jarreau

Jill Scott
I eat a lot. I’m a big sandwich dude. Turkey, mayonnaise, mustard, cheese, yes. I love craft services.
Jason Mitchell
My own office life at Hampton Court is somewhat challenging food-wise. It’s miles from anywhere, off the Chapel Court, deep inside the palace, up a spiral staircase of 51 steps. You can’t just nip out for a sandwich.
Lucy Worsley
In 1981, I borrowed 2,000 pounds – a lot of money back then – paid 50 quid for a seat, packed my own sandwich, and hopped on a plane to America. It was a mighty leap, but one that paid off. A week later, I got a job called ‘Remington Steele.’
Pierce Brosnan
Lunch is usually a salad or a sandwich. If I’m on set, I’ll have catering, but I’m well behaved with that stuff. It’s easy to go crazy – they know how to feed you.
Emily Ratajkowski
The small businessman is smart; he realizes there's no

The small businessman is smart; he realizes there’s no free lunch. On the other hand, he knows where to go to get a good inexpensive sandwich.
Adam Osborne
When I’m stuck in my writing, the world is amiss. If I’m eating a sandwich, it’s an unsettled sandwich. If I’m in the shower, it’s an incorrect shower. It’s profoundly uncomfortable. But it’s what keeps me pushing.
Melissa Rosenberg
As for my daily, it usually consists of a smoothie in the morning with banana, spinach and blueberry and veggie protein powder, then some kind of tofu or tempeh scramble with veggies. Later, I may have some type of rice and beans, salad with lentils, sweet potato, nut butter sandwich and another smoothie.
Austin Aries
Ham and cheese between two slices of bread do not make a great sandwich. But add some creamy mayonnaise, maybe some bright pickles, and some crunchy vegetables, and we got a decent lunch going on.

It’s a Tim sandwich. The meat is fresh, but the bread is moldy.

Ella Woodward
You don’t need a pack of wild horses to learn how to make a sandwich.

I make a mean peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Jack Black
I sometimes worry that by encouraging so many more people to try their hand at baking through ‘The Great British Bake Off,’ I’m going to find myself in court one day charged with accelerating the national epidemic of obesity! To which I will plead not guilty. A slice of Victoria sandwich is never going to harm anyone.
Paul Hollywood
In high school, I stole a six-foot submarine sandwich from a banquet room in front of several hundred people. I did it because I was in marching band, and we were promised food if we played, and they broke their promise. It was my first and only heist, motivated by justice and hunger.
Greg van Eekhout
Having Styles and Sheek as my brothers and my partners makes it easier to work with anybody ’cause that’s the bar of bars right there. Being in the sandwich of them two, you can throw me in the cage with lions and I’ll feel comfortable because everyday I’m at bloodsport with them.
Jadakiss
I say 20 words in English. I say money, money, money, and I say hot dog! I say yes, no and I say money, money, money and I say turkey sandwich and I say grape juice.
Carmen Miranda
Sandwich every bit of criticism between two layers of praise.
Mary Kay Ash
To think of Tolstoy eating a sandwich is intrinsically kind of funny.
Elif Batuman

Stephen A. Smith
I wrote most of ‘Hello in There’ in a relay box, which looks like a mail box, only bigger. Sometimes, it was so cold and windy on my mail route that I’d go inside the relay box and eat a sandwich, just to get away from the wind. I remember working on ‘Hello in There’ inside the relay box.
John Prine
My first job was as a sandwich artist at Subway.
Sophia Amoruso
