"A boy doesn't have to go to war to be a hero; he can say he doesn't like pie when he sees there isn't enough to go around."
E. W. Howe
"I don't think a really good pie can be made without a dozen or so children peeking over your shoulder as you stoop to look in at it every little while."
John Gould
"You can say this for ready-mixes - the next generation isn't going to have any trouble making pies exactly like mother used to make."
Earl Wilson
"A compromise is the art of dividing a cake in such a way that everyone believes he has the biggest piece."
Ludwig Erhard
"He has an oar in every man's boat and a finger in every pie."
Cervantes
"At once impressive and unremarkable, pie can be complicated and challenging or simple and homey. Whether ordinary or elegant, though, a pie is not something to eat by yourself. It should be made to share, preferably while fresh and warm."
Lisa Chernasky, author of The Artful Pie
"A man can always accept a piece of pie. On the farm, pie is the great common denominator."
Rachel Peden, Speak to The Earth
"When you die, if you get a choice between going to regular heaven or pie heaven, choose pie heaven. It might be a trick, but if it's not, ummmm, boy."
Jack Handey, Deep Thoughts
"Construct a bullet-proof dough. Toughen it and kiln-dry it a couple of days. Fill with stewed dried apple; aggravate with cloves, lemon peel and slabs of citron; add two portions of New Orleans sugar. Then solder on the lid and set it in a safe place until it petrifies. Serve cold at breakfast and invite your enemy."
Mark Twain, A Tramp Abroad
"You'll have pie in the sky when you die."
Joe Hill
