More quotes by Anthony Bourdain
I wasn't that great a chef, and I don't think I'm that great a writer.

Anthony Bourdain
No one understands and appreciates the American Dream of hard work leading to material rewards better than a non-American.
Anthony Bourdain

I've been cooking for a nine-year-old and her friends for the better part of seven or eight years. It's how I cook today, it's what makes me happy. I tend to overcompensate for my long absences when I'm home by cooking and it's therapeutic to me - it's how I express love for my daughter. It felt good to do.
Anthony Bourdain
It's not normal, what I do. Just being on television isn't.
Anthony Bourdain
