As a chef and activist, I'm particularly concerned with food politics issues such as the farm bill.

I feel very fortunate that I was raised in a multicultural family, and it came through food.

I happen to love coconut, particularly for that sweet and crunchy texture it adds to any dish.

Hard work IS its own reward. Integrity IS priceless. Art DOES feed the soul.

If you get hungry mid-day, a banana is the best snack at your desk, after a workout, or in between classes. Fruit is a very good snack in general.

If you're cooking for someone important - whether it's your boss or a date - never try a new recipe and a new ingredient at the same time.

Getting to a place of comfort can be uncomfortable.

Just like keeping a healthy diet is important to maintaining a healthy lifestyle, eating the right foods is just as important for getting the most out of your workout.

While I hold my own views, it's important not to get too wrapped up in individual candidates and personalities, but instead to focus on the real issues

I love Thanksgiving because it's a holiday that is centered around food and family, two things that are of utmost importance to me.

Thanksgiving is probably my favorite holiday - it's a day that's American to the core and it's a day that's all about what and how we eat.

Life - Don't waste it!

As soon as I can find the courage to put my plans to action, I will turn from being a “maybe man” into someone whose future success lies completely in his own hands.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times, shame on both of us.

A camel looks like a horse that was planned by a committee.

Having achieved and accomplished love, then the man passes into the unknown. He has become himself, his tale is told.

No matter what side of the argument you are on, you always find people on your side that you wish were on the other.

You'd think someone who'd been to medical school would be able to hear through a stethoscope that somebody was empty inside.

So great and boundless is God's wisdom that he knows right well how to use evil instruments to do good.

Newish friends, if they get ghastly, can be weighed and found wanting, but you'd never do a thing like that to old ones; their terrible habits are just part of the universe.

If a path to the better there be, it begins with a full look at the worst.
