More quotes by Anthony Bourdain
I'm excited by any food that's prepared by someone who's proud of what they're doing, who puts a personal imprint on food.
Anthony Bourdain
Recognise excellence. Celebrate weirdness and innovation. Oddballs should be cherished, if they can do something other people can't do.
Anthony Bourdain
I could do nothing but Brooklyn shows for the rest of my career, and I could die ignorant.
Anthony Bourdain
When dealing with complex transportation issues, the best thing to do is pull up with a cold beer and let somebody else figure it out.
Anthony Bourdain
I am a delightfully evangelical guy about things I love. I am that annoying guy who sits everyone down and forces them to read some book I like. I'm looking across the full spectrum of genres.
Anthony Bourdain
The bible of cooking. The all-time argument ender. Early in my cooking career, I wielded my Larousse like a weapon and it never let me down.
Anthony Bourdain

Anthony Bourdain
I would frankly be shocked if Donald Trump even knows how to use chopsticks or is even able to manipulate them with those tiny little fingers.
Anthony Bourdain

Anthony Bourdain
I like the fact that Melbourne always seems to support their chefs and promote them in ways I find really admirable.
Anthony Bourdain
For a moment, or a second, the pinched expressions of the cynical, world-weary, throat-cutting, miserable bastards we've all had to become disappears, when we're confronted with something as simple as a plate of food.
Anthony Bourdain
What nicer thing can you do for somebody than make them breakfast?
Anthony Bourdain
Maybe that’s enlightenment enough: to know that there is no final resting place of the mind no moment of smug clarity. Perhaps wisdom...is realizing how small I am, and unwise, and how far I have yet to go. -Anthony Bourdain
Anthony Bourdain
The cooking profession, while it's a noble craft and a noble calling, 'cause you're doing something useful - you're feeding people, you're nurturing them, you're providing sustenance - it was never pure.
Anthony Bourdain
People's choice to become vegan, from people I've spoken to, seems motivated by fear.
Anthony Bourdain
I'm really good at sleeping on planes. I mean, I smell jet fuel and I'm out I'm asleep for takeoff.
Anthony Bourdain
It's not normal, what I do. Just being on television isn't.
Anthony Bourdain
I didn't want food that looked unapproachable or ridiculously beautiful.
Anthony Bourdain
I feel that if Jacques Pepin shows you how to make an omelet, the matter is pretty much settled. That's God talking.
Anthony Bourdain
If people are eating mostly pickles after many generations, where did that come from? It's reflective of history, often a painful history. It's central to a culture, to a history, to a personal story. It's communication at its most fundamental.
