More quotes by Julia Child
Romance is the icing but love is the cake.
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
Wine is a living liquid containing no preservatives. Its life cycle comprises youth, maturity, old age, and death. When not treated with reasonable respect it will sicken and die.
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
In spite of food fads, fitness programs, and health concerns, we must never lose sight of a beautifully conceived meal.
Julia Child
Until I discovered cooking, I was never really interested in anything.
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
The American poultry industry had made it possible to grow a fine-looking fryer in record time and sell it at a reasonable price, but no one mentioned that the result usually tasted like the stuffing inside of a teddy bear.
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
In France, cooking is a serious art form and a national sport.
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
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
In my generation, except for a few people who'd gone into banking or nursing or something like that, middle-class women didn't have careers. You were to marry and have children and be a nice mother. You didn't go out and do anything. I found that I got restless.
Julia Child
Tears mess up your makeup.
Julia Child
Eating is the secret to good cooking.
Julia Child
I think every woman should have a blowtorch.
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'm afraid that surprise, shock, and regret is the fate of authors when they finally see themselves on the page.
Julia Child
I think careful cooking is love, don't you?
Julia Child
If you don't pick your audience, you're lost because you're not really talking to anybody.
