If you don't follow your dream, who will?

My favorite Aspen memory is saving an upside-down cake that had exploded from the high altitude.

I grew up in Fall River, Massachusetts. My background was modest, and I worked at a Portuguese bakery in town.

A lot of parents ask me how to get kids to eat more vegetables. The first thing I say is that it starts from the top.

You gotta have good olive oil. You should have a cooking olive oil and you should have a finishing olive oil, like an extra-virgin olive oil.

Anything made with love, bam! -it's a beautiful meal.

Food is very representative of a city's culture. In order to really get to know a place and the people, you've got to eat the food.

Life just doesn't hand you things. You have to get out there and make things happen. that's the exciting part.

Spice is life. It depends upon what you like... have fun with it. Yes, food is serious, but you should have fun with it.

Man has the right . . . to play as he will . . . to think what he will: to speak what he will: to write what he will: to draw, paint, carve, etch, mould, build as he will: to dress as he will.

I want my words and actions to be the quantification of my love. To make tangible the passions in my heart for the world and the people in it.

The naturalness of life... the sense of community is, I think, a very important factor in an artist's life.

Any woman on this planet who values herself as a woman is great. She is a giver of life. And when you are a giver of life, what more is there?

There will be beautiful times and tough times, as such is life, but if your heart is in it, then it is worth it all the way.

I hope you guys stay with me forever, because I will always love you and support you

Arthur, their young king, like a hero out of legend.

The ache of empty arms was an old tale to you.

In a world of free, everyone can play.
