2 Amazing

  • 1. Motherhood is a dream. It really is absolutely amazing.
  • 2. For 'Around the World in 80 Plates' we got to travel all over having what was like a cross between a culinary competition and races. And in each country we had a chef Ambassador. We went to London Barcelona Bologna Hong Kong Thailand Morocco… It was amazing.
  • 3. The thing is I don't believe in most of what's done. The amount of financial and imaginative energy that's put into mediocrity is just amazing which I find to be fundamentally offensive as a human being.

3 Anger

  • 2. Anger is like those ruins which smash themselves on what they fall.
  • 3. The opposite of anger is not calmness its empathy.

4 Anniversary

  • 2. The concept of two people living together for 25 years without a serious dispute suggests a lack of spirit only to be admired in sheep.
  • 3. You marry somebody you love everything about them. You grow to learn about them. You never learn everything.

5 Architecture

  • 1. I quit college. I was studying architecture for about a year.
  • 2. The aesthetic of architecture has to be rooted in a broader idea about human activities like walking relaxing and communicating. Architecture thinks about how these activities can be given added value.
  • 3. Architecture of all the arts is the one which acts the most slowly but the most surely on the soul.
