More quotes by 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.

The future is about a plant-based diet.

The public health of five million children should not be left to luck or chance.

Your child will live a life ten years younger than you because of the landscape of food that we've built around them.

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.

The world is blessed most by men who do things, not by those who merely talk about them.
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
Many kids can tell you about drugs but do not know what celery or courgettes taste like.
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
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
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 hate making TV documentaries.
Jamie Oliver
Sugar is the next tobacco, without a doubt, and that industry should be scared. It should be taxed just like tobacco and anything else that can, frankly, destroy lives.
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
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.
