More quotes by Julia Child
Fat gives things flavor.
Julia Child
Until I discovered cooking, I was never really interested in anything.
Julia Child
It's so beautifully arranged on the plate - you know someone's fingers have been all over it.
Julia Child
The secret of a happy marriage is finding the right person. You know they're right if you love to be with them all the time.
Julia Child
One of the important requirements for learning how to cook is that you also learn how to eat.
Julia Child
Wine is meant to be with food - that's the point of it.
Julia Child
I have trouble with toast. Toast is very difficult. You have to watch it all the time or it burns up.
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
I think anyone who is a carnivore needs to understand that meat does not originally come in these neat little packages.
Julia Child
We had a happy marriage because we were together all the time. We were friends as well as husband and wife. We just had a good time.
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
Cooking well doesn't mean cooking fancy.
Julia Child
Tears mess up your makeup.
Julia Child
I don't use the word gourmet. The word doesn't mean anything anymore. 'Gourmet' makes it sound like someone is putting sherry wine in the corn-flake casserole.
Julia Child
Never apologize for your cooking.
Julia Child
When I got to France I realized I didn't know very much about food at all. I'd never had a real cake. I'd had those cakes from cake mixes or the ones that have a lot of baking powder in them. A really good French cake doesn't have anything like that in it - it's all egg power.
Julia Child
Any disaster is a learning process.
Julia Child
The only time to eat diet food is while you're waiting for the steak to cook.
Julia Child
I would far prefer to have things happen as they naturally do, such as the mousse refusing to leave the mold, the potatoes sticking to the skillet, the apple charlotte slowly collapsing. One of the secrets of cooking is to learn to correct something if you can, and bear with it if you cannot.
Julia Child
I don't think about whether people will remember me or not. I've been an ok person. I've learned a lot. I've taught people a thing or two. That's what's important.
Julia Child
