You need a balance in life between dealing with whats going on inside and not being so absorbed in yourself that it takes over.

Tension translates to your guests. They'll have a much better time having chili and baked potatoes than they would if you did roast duck with a wild cherry sauce and then had to lie down and cry for a while.

At some stages of your life you will deal with things and at others you are overwhelmed with misery and anxiety.

Everyone wants to be young, beautiful and rich. I don't say that scornfully: there are worse things to want to be. But that's why, for example, people don't begrudge Kate Moss how much she earns for a day's work but will fulminate over the take-home pay of some fat, old Water Board exec.

I was brought up an atheist and have always remained so. But at no time was I led to believe that morality was unimportant or that good and bad did not exist. I believe passionately in the need to distinguish between right and wrong and am somewhat confounded by being told I need God, Jesus or a clergyman to help me to do so.

I never taste the wine first in restaurants, I just ask the waiter to pour.
Nigella Lawson
Image
I lurch from chaos to chaos. I can't find my driving licence and my clothes are everywhere - cooking is the neatest thing I do.
Nigella Lawson
Image
It's true that I wouldn't have written the first book had my sister and mother been alive. It was my way of continuing our conversation. It's also this Jewish thing of naming and remembering people, and I think there is a sense of keeping that side of life going.

I never have plans for the future as you never know how things will turn out.
Nigella Lawson
Image
I am not sure about facelifts because I wouldn't want to be someone who just looks like she's had a facelift.

Sometimes...we don't want to feel like a postmodern, postfeminist, overstretched woman but, rather, a domestic goddess, trailing nutmeggy fumes of baking pie in our languorous wake.

I do think awful things may happen at any moment, so while they are not happening, you may as well be pleased.

And cooking is about balance and harmony.

(In cooking), there is always room for careful tinkering.

In fact I am quite snappy and irritable, and I don't know if I'd like to make myself worse in that respect.
