More quotes by Padma Lakshmi
Women's voices not being heard is the root of many of the problems of the world.
Padma Lakshmi
DON'T wear loud clanging bangles at work, it's disruptive and noisy and your coworkers won't appreciate it! Bangles should have a gentle wind-chimey tinkle, not the crash bang of a million pots and pans.
Padma Lakshmi
Whether I'm making a recipe or a piece of jewelry or a white-rose-and-jasmine tea or the perfume, I like to think of myself as a happy little sorceress, and if I could just have a little general store with all that stuff and give people a sense of my taste, that would be lovely.
Padma Lakshmi
I am as omnivorous as it's possible to be. I always say there's nothing I won't eat and nothing I won't wear.
Padma Lakshmi
I never Tweet about my daughter. Never. I just want to be respectful of her privacy. My job as a mom is to know when to open my mouth and when not to.
Padma Lakshmi
India's had two groovy moments. Once when the Beatles went to India and now when Madonna has embraced yoga.

Padma Lakshmi
I'm not of the American ilk that, you know, your lover needs to be your best friend and know you inside out. I think he should know you well enough to please you. Otherwise, what secret will there be to tell him when you're ninety?
Padma Lakshmi
Most of cooking is the labor of chopping. Give yourself a break. Pretend you're on a cooking show and have all your ingredients lined up for you.
Padma Lakshmi
I like me better naked. I don't mean that in a vain way... When you put clothes on, you immediately put a character on. Clothes are adjectives, they are indicators. When you don't have any clothes on, it's just you, raw, and you can't hide.
Padma Lakshmi
Where is it written that a smart woman can't also be stacked?
Padma Lakshmi
From the simple stringing together of lemon garlands for the goddess Durga, to dividing the prasadam or blessed foods for the children first, I came to associate food not only with feminity, but also with purity and divinity.
Padma Lakshmi
My mom was scared of the old Times Square so I was never allowed to go. Now I'm scared of the new Times Square, so I still never go.
Padma Lakshmi
I think a great classic watch is the first staple every woman should invest in.
Padma Lakshmi
I grew up a vegetarian. Then, because I grew up in the states, I started slowly eating meat. First it was bologna sandwiches, or pepperoni on pizza.
Padma Lakshmi
I'm not attached to things at all. I'm very lucky to have quite a few beautiful things, but if I look back at my life, I was often happiest when I had very little.
Padma Lakshmi
In a way that somebody else converts to Judaism or becomes a Hare Krishna, I belong to the church of fried chicken.
Padma Lakshmi
Part of my job as a food writer is to describe food. So my work on 'Top Chef,' I feel, is an extension of that. When we give a criticism to the contestant, we want to make sure we tell them why it's not working and why it would work if they did it a different way.
Padma Lakshmi
Every city has a Donald Trump ours is just the Trumpiest.
