Eating is the secret to good cooking.
Julia Child

A passionate interest in what you do is the secret of enjoying life...whether it is helping old people or children, or making cheese or growing earthworms.

Never apologize for your cooking.

The tomato hides its griefs. Internal damage is hard to spot.

Life itself is the proper binge.
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.

You'll never know everything about anything, especially something you love.
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
Image
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.

I think careful cooking is love, don't you?
