There is a vast difference between how things seem from the outside and how they feel on the inside.

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 am always surprised when people read double entendres into my innocuous babble.
Nigella Lawson
Image
I think we all live in a world that is so fast-paced, it's threatening and absolutely saturated with change and novelty and insecurity. Therefore, the ritual of cooking and feeding my family and friends, whoever drops in, is what makes me feel that I'm in a universe that is contained.

On the whole, I prefer Christmas as an adult than I did as a child.

Image
You don't go around grieving all the time, but the grief is still there and always will be.
Nigella Lawson
Image
I do think awful things may happen at any moment, so while they are not happening, you may as well be pleased.

Image
I wasn't good with authority, went to lots of schools, didn't like the fact that there was no autonomy.
