If you have a dream, FOLLOW IT.
Paula Deen
There's nothing better than being able to give your children wings so they can soar and fly in the direction they want to go in.
Paula Deen
Cooking has always brought me a happiness that I didn't think was available. I just fire up the stove, and things start to fade away.
Paula Deen
We are our brothers keeper. Its going to be up to all of us.
Paula Deen
You don't want to make a steady diet of just lettuce. You don't want to make a steady diet of fried chicken.
Paula Deen
I am guilty of buying way too many gadgets - way too many! And though I try to keep things nice and orderly, sometimes I get distracted and stick saucepans where the stockpots should go.
Paula Deen
Well what I would really like is a bunch of little n***ers to wear long-sleeve white shirts, black shorts and black bow ties. You know, in the Shirley Temple days, they used to tap dance around. Now, that would be a true Southern wedding wouldn't it? But we can't do that because the media would be on me about that.

I pay people very, very well - probably more than I have to. But that costs me less money in the long run because I'm not having to constantly train somebody. I pay them enough that they don't go seeking a higher scale at the next restaurant.
Paula Deen
Would I have fired me? Knowing me? No.
Paula Deen
I know I can cook, but the place where I cook... it's a mess! I'm very disorganized.
Paula Deen
I have my new food line in the works - I think it's over 200 items. Hopefully I can make a difference it's delicious food that's just so easy. I think it'll help people enjoy their lives... it's good!
Paula Deen
Of course, I will continue to share my favorite Southern recipes, just like my mama, grandmother and family shared with me over the years. And now, I'll be adding a little bit of a lighter touch to some of these wonderful dishes.
Paula Deen
Don't ever give up. You can't let discouragement get you down. You can always find negative people that will try to discourage you from your goals. You can't be discouraged, and you can't let the word no stop you.
Paula Deen
When it's said and done, the one thing I want to leave on this earth is hope. I have felt hopelessness, and it's a terrible feeling. Hopelessness will destroy you. I want to bring hope to other people.
Paula Deen
Chicken breast is the driest, [most] tasteless part of the chicken as far as I'm concerned.
Paula Deen
There was one thing my daddy wouldn't tolerate in any shape, form or fashion, and that was being unkind or rude to somebody. That was just very important to my folks. And as it turns out, that was a legacy that he left me that money can't buy, is how to be able to treat people.
Paula Deen
I wake up every morning happy for where I am in life. It's not all about the cooking, but the fact that I can contribute by using my influence to help people all over the country. In the last two years, my partners and I have fed more than 10 million hungry people by bringing meat to food banks.

It's amazing how good getting up and moving makes you feel.
Paula Deen
You never know who you will meet along life's journey. You have to be open to risks, but calculated risks, open to winning.
Paula Deen
Growing up, I had a very busy social life. It wasn't until I was a sophomore in high school that I asked Mama if I could come into the kitchen and have her teach me how to cook something.
