More quotes by 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
Real food doesn't have ingredients, real food is ingredients.
Jamie Oliver
I want Americans to enjoy food. I want them to celebrate food. I want them to, on occasions, to have big cakes and great things. And I want them to indulge.
Jamie Oliver
I like ties but I prefer not to wear one when I'm nervous.
Jamie Oliver
I've cooked just about everything really.
Jamie Oliver
But I read Catching Fire. I loved disappearing into a story.
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
Food is one of life's greatest joys yet we've reached this really sad point where we're turning food into the enemy, and something to be afraid of
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
I profoundly believe that the power of food has a primal place in our homes that binds us to the best bits of life.
Jamie Oliver
I'm better with my hands, and I always loved the slightly romantic idea of starting with bits of wood and being able to create something to sit on, to eat from, to store your clothes in.
Jamie Oliver
If you only design menus that are essentially junk or fast food, the whole infrastructure supports junk.
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
In England, you're allowed to have an opinion - as long as it comes out of your mouth.
Jamie Oliver
Young people can be disruptive and screw up classes. But even if they are being a pain in the arse it's a cry for help - they don't feel like they are being listened to.
Jamie Oliver
I hate making TV documentaries.
Jamie Oliver
Every child should be taught to cook in school, not just talk about nutrition all day. Good food can be made in 15 minutes. This could be the first generation where the kids teach the parents.
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
Industry, economy, honesty and kindness form a quartet of virtue that will never be improved upon.
Jamie Oliver
I think there are definitely two types of student: the academic kids and the 50% who fail. It's very clear to see - it's fact. We're not doing enough for those who fail they need a more physical, tactile approach, involving people skills, team-building, problem-solving, building things.
