As a matter of fact, I've been to Italy many times before I met my husband, which he can't even imagine that I could possibly know anything about Italian food. But, you know, Italian food's really basic, and there's so many different variations on it that what my husband did is he broke it down for me.

I love the Italian culture, it's a beautiful culture. I love the language, the Italian people, their music, their attitudes...I just love it! Sometimes I think I'm an Italian trapped in a Spanish woman's body.

I have no Italian in me. I'm Cuban, Greek, Romanian, and Sephardic Jew, so I couldn't get further from Italian. But I guess I've been adopted into that family, too.

Music and lyrics: oates
I see I see I see all the monumental ruinization
I see I see I see the greatest works of art in western civilization

The anger that Uncle Junior has comes from my background. My father was the son of an Italian immigrant, and I've seen the fire of the Italian temperament. It can be explosive sometimes in ways that are both funny and tragic.

All afternoon I have been struggling to communicate in Italian with Roberto and Giuseppe, who have begun to resemble the two male characters in my Italian for Beginners, the ones who are always shopping or inquiring about the times of trains, and now I can hardly speak or write English.

He who would relish his food must not see it cooked.
He's a wise man that leads passion by the bridle.
He that shows his passion, tells his enemy where he may hit him.
As an Italian-American, I have a special responsibility to be sensitive to ethnic stereotypes.
