Anthony Bourdain Quotes

Male, Female, Gay, Straight, Legal, Illegal, Country Of Origin - Who Cares? You Can Either Cook An Omelet Or You Can't. You Can Either Cook Five Hundred Omelets In Three Hours - Like You Said You Could, And Like The Job Requires - Or You Can't. There's No Lying In The Kitchen. The Restaurant Kitchen May Indeed Be The Last, Glorious Meritocracy - Where Anybody With The Skills And The Heart Is Welcomed. But If You're Old, Or Out Of Shape - Or Were Never Really Certain About Your Chosen Path In The First Place - Then You Will Surely And Quickly Be Removed. Like A Large Organism's Natural Antibodies Fighting Off An Invading Strain Of Bacteria, The Life Will Slowly Push You Out Or Kill You Off. Thus It Is. Thus It Shall Always Be. The Ideal Progression For A Nascent Culinary Career Would Be To, First, Take A Jump Straight Into The Deep End Of The Pool. Long Before Student Loans And Culinary School, Take The Trouble To Find Out Who You Are.
