If you've got a talent, protect it.
After a storm comes a calm.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Who seeks shall find.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
My contribution I hope is to get people to eat full-flavored food. If I could come away with that alone, that would be a fantastic accomplishment. I'm also very proud of being a very American chef.
