I've cooked just about everything really.

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.

Food is one of life's greatest joys yet we've reached this really sad point where we're turning food into the enemy, and something to be afraid of

I wish for everyone to help create a strong, sustainable movement to educate every child about food, inspire families to cook again and empower people everywhere to fight obesity.

When you are trying to move mountains you want-and need-people on your side who want to move them with you.

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.

I may be uninspiring, but I'll be damned if I'm alien.

I believe that life is about doing. It's about changing. It's about transitioning. I can't imagine, as a human being, not being able to grow.

I would rather die with the taste of you on my tongue than live and never touch you again.

As writers, we are exploring the mystery, the mystery of existence.

I’m interested in natural growth patterns, and the beautiful forms that only nature creates. How that flows through me and how that comes out is what I’m trying to understand.
