I'm a great believer in the idea of not choosing based on our taste.

The kind of people who always go on about whether a thing is in good taste invariably have very bad taste.

In my estimation, the only thing that is more to be guarded against than bad taste is good taste.

One cannot develop taste from what is of average quality but only from the very best.

Defining yourself by your taste is easier than defining yourself by any genuine stance on something.

Ultimately, taste is so niche and so personal.

Sometimes it's more important to be human, than to have good taste.

When you taste things in the right order, sometimes they taste so much different than if you taste them out of order. Not that there's a right order, like by rule, but just like in a thoughtful way that makes sense.

Taste is one of the five senses, and the man who tells us with priggish pride that he does not care what he eats is merely boasting of his sad deficiency: he might as well be proud of being deaf or blind, or, owing to a perpetual cold in the head, of being devoid of the sense of smell.

Taste refers to the past, imagination to the future.
