It is my opinion that Norman Rockwell and his ilk have done more to make already anxious people feel guilty than anyone else.

Cooking is like anything else: some people have an inborn talent for it. Some become expert by practicing, and some learn from books.

I don't know what I've done that has made people so interested in me, more than anyone else.

It is not just the Great Works of mankind that make a culture. It is the daily things, like what people eat and how they serve it.

As everyone knows, there is only one way to fry chicken correctly. Unfortunately, most people think their method is best, but most people are wrong. Mine is the only right way, and on this subject I feel almost evangelical.

Certainly, cooking for oneself reveals man at his weirdest.
