Here is a partial list, with some contradictions noted:

Liver. Absolutely abhor it. Even the smell of cooking liver makes me queasy.

Eggs. Scrambled, poached, etc. Actually, any eggs from the frying pan are revolting to me. Especially the odor. And yet, I don't mind them hard boiled or cooked into a dish (I love pasta carbonara, for example).

Most meats that are organs: kidneys, heart, brain, etc.

Yogurt. Hate it. But if it's cooked into something, then it's tolerable.

These are the first ones that come to mind. Doubtless, I'll eventually remember others.

"For me, there's only my wife..."

"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"

"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"

"It was a grass harp... And we listened."

"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"

"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."
