I can't do exercises regularly because my schedule changes from day to day. I'm okay with hurting myself, like I'll lift something until it hurts, but I don't want to pass out or vomit in front of people.

More quotes by Anthony Bourdain
I'm very proud of the Rome episode of 'No Reservations' because it violated all the conventional wisdom about making television. You're never, ever supposed to do a food or travel show in black and white.
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.
Anthony Bourdain
I'm really happy to see Filipino cuisine starting to really take hold outside of the Pinoy community.
Anthony Bourdain
Avoid at all costs that vile spew you see rotting in oil in screwtop jars. Too lazy to peel fresh? You don't deserve to eat garlic.
Anthony Bourdain
My daughter takes pride in showing up with stuff that other kids envy or are freaked out by, so I send her to school with grilled octopus.
Anthony Bourdain
I do my very best to avoid shark fin.

Anthony Bourdain
You have to be a romantic to invest yourself, your money, and your time in cheese.
Anthony Bourdain
I try to very hard to avoid a situation where I would be eating cat or dog I've managed to gracefully avoid that. It's hypocritical of me and an arbitrary line, but one that I have managed to avoid crossing.
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
If anything is good for pounding humility into you permanently, it's the restaurant business.
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'm not impressed by any cooks who can brag about a filet mignon. A guy who can take the neck of a shank or can use tripe to make into something delicious is really interesting to me that's impressive.
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
One of the things is challenging yourself to do a Rome show when everybody's done a Rome show. To find some aspect of food culture or chef culture that people can look at in a new way.
Anthony Bourdain
When you have a child you're no longer the star of the movie.
Anthony Bourdain
Just because we are not Italian, does not mean we cannot appreciate Michelangelo, it is the same with cuisine.
Anthony Bourdain
It's wrong I think, morally and annoying in general, to try to get a kid to be a foodie, so I never even suggested, Hey baby it's good, maybe you should try it. That never worked for me.
Anthony Bourdain
There's something wonderful about drinking in the afternoon. A not-too-cold pint, absolutely alone at the bar - even in this fake-ass Irish pub.
