More quotes by Nigella Lawson
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.

I'm not much of a drinker. I'm an eater more than a drinker. So I feel that I don't have to wait to get a hangover in order to eat these.
Nigella Lawson

Nigella Lawson

Nigella Lawson
I am always surprised when people read double entendres into my innocuous babble.
Nigella Lawson
I am not sure about facelifts because I wouldn't want to be someone who just looks like she's had a facelift.
Nigella Lawson
I never have plans for the future as you never know how things will turn out.
Nigella Lawson
I was a quiet teenager, introverted, full of angst.
Nigella Lawson
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
And cooking is about balance and harmony.
Nigella Lawson
I'm not someone who's endlessly patient and wonderful.
Nigella Lawson
Glamour really has to do with good lighting, doesn't it?
Nigella Lawson
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.
