Wether you've been, gone, or coming back from the 26th Annual Lowcountry Oyster Festival, there's a great collection of quotes about oyster eating over at Charleston Currents.
Some samples from Ann Thrash's compilation:
"I will not eat oysters. I want my food dead. Not sick, not wounded, dead." -- actor/director Woody Allen (1935- ).
"Oysters are the most tender and delicate of all seafoods. They stay in bed all day and night. They never work or take exercise, are stupendous drinkers, and wait for their meals to come to them." -- Hector Bolitho, author of "The Glorious Oyster" (1897-1974).
