Drugs didn't work out too well for me.
Anthony Bourdain
Unlicensed hooch from a stranger in a parking lot. Good idea? Yes, of course it is.
Anthony Bourdain
I always entertain the notion that I'm wrong, or that I'll have to revise my opinion. Most of the time that feels good sometimes it really hurts and is embarrassing.
Anthony Bourdain
In this way, writers are indeed, as Henry Miller suggested, traitors to the human race. We may turn a light on inequity, injustice, and oppression from time to time, but we regularly kill what we love in insidious fashion.
Anthony Bourdain
Free time is my enemy. I recognized early on I'm not a guy who should have a lot of time to contemplate the mysteries of the universe. I need to stay busy... That's just the nature of my demons.
Anthony Bourdain
I think as a moral question, restaurant workers should get paid more.
Anthony Bourdain
Anyone who's a chef, who loves food, ultimately knows that all that matters is: Is it good? Does it give pleasure?

Thinking that your story is so interesting that other people will want to listen to it or read it or pay to hear it, that's - what kind of person thinks that? A monster of self-regard. It's not normal thinking.
Anthony Bourdain
I don't have to agree with you to like you or respect you.
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
The Kobe craze really annoyed me. Most of the practitioners had no real understanding of the product and were abusing it and exploiting it in terrible and ridiculous ways. Kobe beef should not be used in a hamburger. It's completely pointless.
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
Luck is not a business model.
Anthony Bourdain
I'm really happy to see the explosion of interest in Korean food, and this hybrid Korean-American food.
Anthony Bourdain
Italy is hard to beat. It's a family-friendly experience, they like to see kids in restaurants, and at dinner you see all the adults at the table and all the kids at the other end of the table. Maybe they run off and go play.
Anthony Bourdain
When I'm doing a book tour in the States, I'll wake up in the room sometimes in an anonymous chain hotel, and I don't know where I am right away. I'll go to the window, and it doesn't help there either, especially if you're in an anonymous strip and it's the usual Victoria's Secret, Gap, Chili's, Applebee's.
Anthony Bourdain
Naturally, I'm misanthropic. But the Negronis are helping considerably.
Anthony Bourdain
Going to Southeast Asia for the first time and tasting that spectrum of flavors - that certainly changed my whole palate, the kind of foods I crave. A lot of the dishes I used to love became boring to me.
Anthony Bourdain

Anthony Bourdain
I managed to reach a depth of self-loathing that usually takes a night of drinking to achieve.
Anthony Bourdain
