More quotes by Anthony Bourdain

Anthony Bourdain
Being a vegan is a first-world phenomenon, completely self-indulgent.
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
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
The cookbooks I value the most in my collection are the ones where you hear the author's voice and point-of-view in every recipe.
Anthony Bourdain
On one hand we encourage and allow major pharmaceutical companies to openly hook vast sectors of our population on narcotics, and then we cut them off and throw them in jail, and moralize about it. It is clearly a huge, huge, and growing problem. It's devastating. We need to treat it as a health crisis, which it is, and stop moralizing.
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
The roots of creativity of cooking are hungry people trying to figure out how to take something that's not particularly fresh or tender and transform it into it something delicious that everyone will love.
Anthony Bourdain
I'm a pretty decent writer. It comes easy to me. I don't agonize over sentences. I write like I talk. I try to make them good books.
Anthony Bourdain
As you move through this life...you leave marks behind, however small. And in return, life - and travel - leaves marks on you.
Anthony Bourdain
Don't dunk your nigiri in the soy sauce. Don't mix your wasabi in the soy sauce. If the rice is good, complement your sushi chef on the rice.
Anthony Bourdain
The Italians seem to have a better attitude with kids and the food is great!
Anthony Bourdain
If I were trapped in one city and had to eat one nation's cuisine for the rest of my life, I would not mind eating Japanese. I adore Japanese food. I love it.
Anthony Bourdain
I wanted it to look like real cooking in someone's real home or just so out-of-there bizarre that it would be fun.
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
Very few restaurant workers could even dream of eating in the restaurants they work in. Many do not make a living wage.
Anthony Bourdain
Skills can be taught. Character you either have or you don't have.
Anthony Bourdain
I'm in no position to try to tell people how to live their family life.
Anthony Bourdain
People's choice to become vegan, from people I've spoken to, seems motivated by fear.
Anthony Bourdain
Anything that improves people's expectations of a meal is good for the world. Anything that weans even one kid or one adult away from Chili's or T.G.I. Friday's is definitely a win for the good guys.
