On Cooking:
Julia Child

"The only real stumbling block is fear of failure. In cooking you've got to have a what-the-hell attitude."

Craig Claiborne

"Cooking is at once child's play and adult joy. And cooking done with care is an act of love."

Anthony Bourdain

"Vegetarians, and their Hezbollah-like splinter-faction, the vegans, are a persistent irritant to any chef worth a damn.

To me, life without veal stock, pork fat, sausage, organ meat, demi-glace, or even stinky cheese is a life not worth living.

Vegetarians are the enemy of everything good and decent in the human spirit, an affront to all I stand for, the pure enjoyment of food. The body, these waterheads imagine, is a temple that should not be polluted by animal protein. It's healthier, they insist, though every vegetarian waiter I've worked with is brought down by any rumor of a cold.

Oh, I'll accommodate them, I'll rummage around for something to feed them, for a 'vegetarian plate', if called on to do so. Fourteen dollars for a few slices of grilled eggplant and zucchini suits my food cost fine."


On Brewing:
Anonymous

"Give a man a beer, he'll drink for the day. Teach a man to brew, he'll be drunk the rest of his life."

Friar Tuck in Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves

"This is grain, which any fool can eat, but for which the Lord intended a more divine means of consumption... Beer!"


On Alchemy:
Jean Dubuis

"Alchemy is the art of manipulating life, and consciousness in matter, to help it evolve, or to solve problems of inner disharmonies."

Albert Poisson

Scholasticism with its subtle argumentation,
Theology with its ambiguous phraseology,
Astrology, so vast and so complex,
are all children's games when compared with alchemy.
