More quotes by Anthony Bourdain
I could do nothing but Brooklyn shows for the rest of my career, and I could die ignorant.
Anthony Bourdain
I'm of a generation that romanticizes and maybe even over-romanticized things that were painful, that hurt others. I feel that. But I don't know if I have any regrets.
Anthony Bourdain
I like telling stories, and I tell stories that interest me. It would be boring to have to go to nothing but the best restaurants. That would be a misery to me.
Anthony Bourdain
People's choice to become vegan, from people I've spoken to, seems motivated by fear.
Anthony Bourdain
The journey is part of the experience - an expression of the seriousness of one's intent. One doesn't take the A train to Mecca.
Anthony Bourdain
And now to sleep, to dream...perchance to fart.
Anthony Bourdain
What nicer thing can you do for somebody than make them breakfast?
Anthony Bourdain

Anthony Bourdain
If people are working only rice and beans for much of their diet, it says something.
Anthony Bourdain
Never try to get your kid to eat anything she doesn't already want to eat. Just eat interesting stuff in front of her while completely ignoring her. Never, ever suggest try it. Never say those dreaded words try it, it's good. Or worse, It's good for you. That'll poison the well.
Anthony Bourdain
Food is everything we are. It's an extension of nationalist feeling, ethnic feeling, your personal history, your province, your region, your tribe, your grandma. It's inseparable from those from the get-go.
Anthony Bourdain
Southeast Asia has a real grip on me. From the very first time I went there, it was a fulfillment of my childhood fantasies of the way travel should be.
Anthony Bourdain
Anyone who's a chef, who loves food, ultimately knows that all that matters is: Is it good? Does it give pleasure?
Anthony Bourdain
I'm at my most productive before I even have my first cup of coffee. I only get slower and stupider as the day progresses.
Anthony Bourdain
I, personally, think there is a really danger of taking food too seriously. Food should be part of the bigger picture.
Anthony Bourdain
Most of the time, I'm fighting guys who are 22 years old, former college wrestlers, athletes, kids who are in much better shape than me. Often people who are much bigger and wider than me. It can be dispiriting at first.
Anthony Bourdain
I, a product of the New Frontier and Great Society, honestly believed that the world pretty much owed me a living--all I had to do was wait around in order to live better than my parents.
Anthony Bourdain
I'm a decent cook I'm a decent chef. None of my friends would ever have hired me at any point in my career. Period.
Anthony Bourdain
I could eat bloody Elvis - if you put enough vinegar on him.
