More quotes by Julia Child
Romance is the icing but love is the cake.
Julia Child
...the waiters carried themselves with a quiet joy, as if their entire mission in life was to make their customers feel comfortable and well tended.
Julia Child
If you're afraid of butter, use cream.
Julia Child
Cooking hasn't yet been accepted as the art form it is. It should be on the level with any of the other art forms.
Julia Child
If you don't pick your audience, you're lost because you're not really talking to anybody.
Julia Child
I think the inner person is the most important.... I would like to see an invention that keeps the mind alert. That's what is important.
Julia Child
As we say in the American Institute of Wine and Food, small helpings, no seconds. A little bit of everything. No snacking. And have a good time.
Julia Child

Julia Child

The experienced cook will know to skip through the verbiage, but the explanations will be there for those who still need them.
Julia Child
Anything that says 'healthy' I say away from... Giving up butter, for instance, means that in about two years you will be covered in dandruff.
Julia Child
I think one of the terrible things today is that people have this deathly fear of food: fear of eggs, say, or fear of butter. Most doctors feel that you can have a little bit of everything.
Julia Child
Fat gives things flavor.
Julia Child
Pro-choice is the only way to be-- because women are human beings, after all, and should be treated as such.
Julia Child
It is hard to imagine a civilization without onions.
Julia Child
My mother was independent. She had grown up in Dalton and Pittsfield, in western Massachusetts, and she was one of the first women drivers in that area.
Julia Child
In France, cooking is a serious art form and a national sport.
Julia Child
We hit it off immediately, especially Helene, who was a 'swallow-life-in-big-gulps' kind of person.
