More quotes by Julia Child

Julia Child
Forget the cheap white wine: go to beef and gin!
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’m awfully sorry for people who are taken in by all of today’s dietary mumbo jumbo. They are not getting any enjoyment out of their food.
Julia Child
The main thing is to have a gutsy approach and use your head.
Julia Child
You'll never know everything about anything, especially something you love.
Julia Child
You learn to cook so that you don't have to be a slave to recipes. You get what's in season and you know what to do with it.
Julia Child
