I hate making TV documentaries.
Jamie Oliver
When you are trying to move mountains you want-and need-people on your side who want to move them with you.
Jamie Oliver
There is not one thing we can do to fix the problem, it has to be an ambush!
Jamie Oliver
All I ever wanted to do was to make food accessible to everyone to show that you can make mistakes - I do all the time - but it doesn't matter.
Jamie Oliver
Stop being a vegan and start enjoying what you eat.
Jamie Oliver
I'm probably a bit romantic about it, but I think we humans miss having contact with fire. We need it.
Jamie Oliver
As soon as I was old enough to peer over the worktops, I remember being fascinated by what went on in the kitchen. It just seemed such a cool place, everyone working together to make this lovely stuff and having a laugh doing it.
Jamie Oliver
In England, you're allowed to have an opinion - as long as it comes out of your mouth.
Jamie Oliver
I've cooked just about everything really.
Jamie Oliver
The future is about a plant-based diet.
Jamie Oliver
The best food I've ever eaten in my life has come from the poorest communities.
Jamie Oliver
Just because the Americans are so good at rattling out accessible and cheap junk food, nobody looks twice when it comes to their food. But there are golden nuggets everywhere.
Jamie Oliver
My life is really so much based in England.
Jamie Oliver
What I've enjoyed most, though, is meeting people who have a real interest in food and sharing ideas with them. Good food is a global thing and I find that there is always something new and amazing to learn - I love it!
Jamie Oliver
I love roasting because you can give it love, get it in the oven and go and play with the kids or whatever you've got to do, and then hours later you've got a lovely dinner.
Jamie Oliver
I think authenticity is important whichever homeland you're from but one of the lovely things about British cooking is that we adopt great food and dishes from all of the lovely people who come from overseas to live in our country. We're a magpie nation - we take the best bits of other cuisines and embrace them as our own.
Jamie Oliver
I never get tired of talking about food. I do getting tired of fighting governments when they are so clearly not putting the best interest of the children forward.
Jamie Oliver
I hear loads of cynics saying that I'll never be able to change anything. They say that junk food marketing and the ready availability of fast food is just too powerful. But I'd say in response, screw you. I know that most people, if they're really honest, are fed up with the same old rubbish
Jamie Oliver
It's just us trying to start a movement where everybody passes on a bit of cooking knowledge. We estimate that one person can potentially affect 180 others very quickly so we're just trying to spread the word.
Jamie Oliver
If you can eat with mates or friends or family, I mean, it's such a brilliant thing isn't it? If you feel really rubbish and you have a nice bit of food it makes you feel good, you know?
Jamie Oliver
