Every child should be taught to cook in school, not just talk about nutrition all day. Good food can be made in 15 minutes. This could be the first generation where the kids teach the parents.

Real food doesn't have ingredients, real food is ingredients.

I profoundly believe that the power of food has a primal place in our homes that binds us to the best bits of life.

Sugar is the next tobacco, without a doubt, and that industry should be scared. It should be taxed just like tobacco and anything else that can, frankly, destroy lives.

Homicide is 0.8% of deaths. Diet-related disease is over 60%. But no one talks about it.

Time to start getting more sleep. This beautiful physique needs royal treatment.

I wish you self-esteem so high – you're humble.

Taking care of children has nothing to do with politics. I think perhaps with time, instead of there being a politicization of humanitarian aid, there will be a humanization of politics.

Shoulder the sky, my lad, and drink your ale.
