Image
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
Image
I think careful cooking is love, don't you?
Julia Child
Image
There are only four great arts: music, painting, sculpture, and ornamental pastry- architecture being perhaps the least banal derivative of the latter.
Julia Child
Image
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
Image
Wine is meant to be with food - that's the point of it.
Julia Child
Image
I think anyone who is a carnivore needs to understand that meat does not originally come in these neat little packages.
Julia Child
Image
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.

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.

A house without a cat is like a day without sunshine, a pie without fromage, a dinner without wine.
Julia Child
Image
Always remember: If you're alone in the kitchen and you drop the lamb, you can always just pick it up. Who's going to know?
Julia Child
Image
People who are not interested in food always seem rather dry and unloving and don't have a real gusto for life.
Julia Child
Image
The main thing is to have a gutsy approach and use your head.
Julia Child
Image
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
Fake food -- I mean those patented substances chemically flavored and mechanically bulked out to kill the appetite and deceive the gut -- is unnatural, almost immoral, a bane to good eating and good cooking.

Any disaster is a learning process.

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.
