Feeding is a very important ritual for me. I don’t trust people who don’t like to eat.

Gina Gershon

About This Quote

This quote needs no introduction—at least for now. We're working on adding more context soon.

Interpretation

Gershon frames eating not as mere consumption but as a “ritual,” implying community, pleasure, and a kind of everyday sacredness. “Feeding” suggests both giving and receiving—hospitality, caretaking, and the social bonds formed around shared meals. Her joking distrust of people who “don’t like to eat” works as a cultural shorthand: appetite becomes a proxy for openness to experience, sensuality, and engagement with life. The line also hints at a performer’s sensibility—valuing embodied, tactile pleasures over asceticism—and treats food as a reliable test of temperament: those who reject it may seem guarded, joyless, or unwilling to participate in communal intimacy.
