More quotes by Julia Child
Fine # wine is a living liquid ... Its life comprises youth, maturity, old age, and death.
Julia Child
Some people like to paint pictures, or do gardening, or build a boat in the basement. Other people get a tremendous pleasure out of the kitchen, because cooking is just as creative and imaginative an activity as drawing, or wood carving, or music.
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
Cooking is one failure after another, and that's how you finally learn.
Julia Child
the more experience you have, the more interesting cooking is because you know what can happen to the food. In the beginning you can look at a chicken and it doesn't mean much, but once you have done some cooking you can see in that chicken a parade of things you will be able to create.
Julia Child
...no one is born a great cook, one learns by doing.
Julia Child
If you're buying tomatoes pick them up and smell them-they should have a lovely perfume. They need to be kept at fifty degrees or above, particularly during the growing season, because that's when they develop their flavor.
Julia Child
I think every woman should have a blowtorch.
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
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
...nothing is too much trouble if it turns out the way it should.
Julia Child
People were hysterical about Communism the way people today are hysterical about flag burning. I'm really against these people who try to show that they're great patriots, because they're not thinking, they're just being hysterical.
Julia Child
I love good, fresh food cooked by someone who knows what he's doing.
Julia Child
The tomato hides its griefs. Internal damage is hard to spot.
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 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
Eating is the secret to good cooking.
Julia Child
It is hard to imagine a civilization without onions.
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
The only time to eat diet food is while you're waiting for the steak to cook.
Julia Child
