Fat Quotes

One cardinal rule in behavioral medicine is that unless it is interfered with, your body knows exactly what it is doing and always does the best thing it can do under the circumstances. Consequently, if you are overweight, you may reasonably assume that the extra fat itself is your body’s best adjustment to the circumstances you are providing Picture Quote #1

You have to keep a little bit extra fat on the body. The strength and conditioning guy is always all over me about it, but it seems to make guys bounce off me better Picture Quote #1

Everything that goes into my mouth seems to make me fat, everything that comes out of my mouth embarrasses me Picture Quote #1

A coach can’t be concerned with the poor ballplayer. If the player can’t make it, he’s got to be out right away. It’s a very tough aspect of coaching, and in this aspect I was weak. Also, some guys get fat on coaching, they get healthy and strong, but other guys get ulcers Picture Quote #1

I’m actually a thin serious person but I play fat and funny, but only for the movies Picture Quote #1

The trans fat label has been an enormous incentive for food companies to take trans fat out of their products Picture Quote #1

Fat is mainstream, which is why everyone has become complacent. What used to be considered pudgy before isn’t even worthy of a comment today Picture Quote #1

My parents didn’t overfeed me, nor did they make an issue of it. That’s when things go wrong. It doesn’t have to be a problem for children to be fat, but it does affect you: you aren’t as happy in that skin Picture Quote #1

I was a fat child and loved cake, perhaps because it was the only sweet thing in my life Picture Quote #1

The more you behave like you have the right to exist in the world without interference, the less others will question it. The power of a fait accompli is astonishing. The more people see fat bodies moving and being physical and doing whatever makes them happy in the world, without apology and without shame, the more they get used to seeing that and thinking of it as normal Picture Quote #1

I was a lonely, frightened little fat kid who felt there was something deeply wrong with me because I didn’t feel like I was the gender I’d been assigned. I felt there was something wrong with me, something sick and twisted inside me, something very very bad about me. And everything I read backed that up Picture Quote #1

The only thing that anyone can diagnose, with any certainty, by looking at a fat person, is their own level of stereotype and prejudice toward fat people Picture Quote #1

A big mistake people make when they are trying to lose weight is that they stop eating. They’ll eat salads once a day and then their body starts trying to protect itself and holds onto the fat Picture Quote #1

Let the surgeon take care to regulate the whole regimen of the patient’s life for joy and happiness by promising that he will soon be well, by allowing his relatives and special friends to cheer him and by having someone tell him jokes, and let him be solaced also by music on the viol or psaltery. The surgeon must forbid anger, hatred, and sadness in the patient, and remind him that the body grows fat from joy and thin from sadness Picture Quote #1

When I was a kid I used to hate getting picked for team sports. It would be the fit and sporty guys over there. And me and the fat kids over here. Those kids were fat! One girl had to be cut out a hula hoop Picture Quote #1

I just don’t want to come down to that level of society….the ones who sit by their televisions, drink their beer, their guts fat, vicariously living someone else’s life, in a destructive way. I want a positive way Picture Quote #1

You can train and train until you are blue in the face, but you’ve got to diet, you’ve got to have that leanness because if you are not lean, your abs won’t show. Of course, the training has to be put in, but then you’ve to shed all the fat and keep the fat off. And that’s how you get an eight pack Picture Quote #1

I loved eating and I did put on weight. I never actually felt fat until I started going for castings, for auditions Picture Quote #1

I’m the ugly sister. I’m the fat one. I’m the transvestite. I have had those mean things said about me at least twice a day for the last five years. It’s horrible, you know? But I can brush that stuff off Picture Quote #1

You’re not too fat. You’re not too loud. You’re not too smart. You’re not unladylike. There is nothing wrong with you Picture Quote #1

Why does no one speak of the cultural advantages of the country? For example, is a well groomed, ecologically kept, sustainably fertile farm any less cultural, any less artful, than paintings of fat angels on church ceilings? Picture Quote #1

I took the right leg of that woman’s body, from the knee to the hip took the fat off and ate it while he stared at the other girl. When I bit into it she just urinated right there Picture Quote #1

Fat is merely stored energy. It is a physical state, nothing more and nothing less. It implies zero about your value as a person in this world Picture Quote #1

Food does not rank high on my list. I eat to live, and I’m very particular about my diet. It’s strictly low fat diet for me Picture Quote #1

Footballers today are forced to conform to a bodily aesthetic that in its rigidity and uniformity makes fashion models look as varied as snowflakes. This wasn’t always so. Up until the 1980s most teams in all divisions had a couple of fat ones, a couple of little ones, at least one bandy one, one completely covered in hair, two weaklings and a chap with no neck. This was an era when you didn’t need names on the backs of shirts in order to tell who’s who, you could clearly identify them with your eyes half shut from the other side of the pitch Picture Quote #1

I’ve got this terrible hernia. People think it’s a fat gut, but it’s not Picture Quote #1

I’ve always turned down stuff where you had to be fat. I may be fat, but that’s not why you play a role. If the guy has to be that way, I say get somebody else because I’m not doing any fat acting Picture Quote #1

My act is sort of improvisational. I have a skeleton in my head, but no fat or skin on it Picture Quote #1

Fat people are so rarely included in visual culture that fat is perceived as a blot on the landscape of sleek and slim Picture Quote #1
