Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world.

My 50th birthday approaching felt like a big milestone to me. I've lived half a century. If I write about food and use my life as a fulcrum to move the story along, maybe I've lived long enough to fashion a narrative that has a happy ending.

Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it and I shall move the world.

The good opinion of mankind like the lever of Archimedes with the given fulcrum moves the world.
