More quotes by Julia Child
Mastering the Art of French Cooking... doesn't mean it has to be fancy cooking, although it can be as elaborate as you wish.
Julia Child
My father was in real estate, banking, and land management. As family life, it was very conventional, happy, and comfortable. We weren't wealthy, but we were well-off.
Julia Child
A house without a cat is like a day without sunshine, a pie without fromage, a dinner without wine.
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
Wine is meant to be with food - that's the point of it.
Julia Child
It's a shame to be caught up in something that doesn't absolutely make you tremble with joy.
Julia Child
Being tall is an advantage, especially in business. People will always remember you. And if you're in a crowd, you'll always have some clean air to breathe.
Julia Child
If you are going to flip something, you must have the courage of your convictions.
Julia Child
Everything can have drama if it's done right. Even a pancake.

Julia Child
...nothing is too much trouble if it turns out the way it should.
Julia Child
Dining with one's friends and beloved family is certainly one of life's primal and most innocent delights, one that is both soul-satisfying and eternal.
Julia Child
I don't believe in twisting yourself into knots of excuses and explanations over the food you make.... Usually one's cooking is better than one thinks it is. And if the food is truly vile...then the cook must simply grit her teeth and bear it with a smile.
Julia Child
Too much trouble,' 'Too expensive,' or 'Who will know the difference' are death knells for good food. ... Cooking is not a particularly difficult art, and the more you cook and learn about cooking, the more sense it makes.
Julia Child
I found that the recipes in most - in all - the books I had were really not adequate. They didn't tell you enough... I won't do anything unless I'm told why I'm doing it. So I felt that we needed fuller explanations so that if you followed one of those recipes, it should turn out exactly right.
Julia Child
I think careful cooking is love, don't you? The loveliest thing you can cook for someone who's close to you is about as nice a valentine as you can give.
Julia Child
With enough butter, anything is good
Julia Child
Sooner or later the public will forget you the memory of you will fade. What's important are the individuals you've influenced along the way.
Julia Child
Drama is very important in life: You have to come on with a bang. You never want to go out with a whimper. Everything can have drama if it's done right. Even a pancake.
