de Borose amused himself pretty well with various occupations he had undertaken. Nevertheless, he at last began to perceive that even the most select company was not without its pretensions, patronising airs, and some- times a little jealousy. He knew that there exists no human being without faults, that no one is perfect; but went, nevertheless, a good deal in society, imconsciously followed the dictates of Fate, impressed on his countenance, and gradually found in gastronomy his principal enj...oyment. France, was also for many years manager of the Paris Vaudeville Theatre. — Tb. (305) A HANDBOOK OF GASTRONOMY M. de Borose used to say that gastronomy is nothing but reflection and appreciation combined, apphed to a branch of science which ameliorates human beings. He said, with Epicurus,* "Is man then made to despise the gifts of Nature? Does he only come into the world to gather bitter fruits? For whom are these flowers which the gods cause to grow at the feet of mortals? It is to obey the will of Providence that we abandon ourselves to our vari- ous innate inclinations; our duties spring from His laws, our ideas from His inspirations." He used to say also with the stout professor, that good things are intended for good men;^ otherwise we should fall into the absurdity of thinking that God had only created them for the wicked.
