Quote by -Marco Pierre White
The food wasn't very good in the first kitchen I ever worked in. But it was very busy, so I learnt to be fast, absorb pressure, use a knife, and say, 'Yes, chef.'
Quote by -Marco Pierre White

Quote by -Marco Pierre White
I think, in life, the more you force things, they break. You just let things happen.
Quote by -Marco Pierre White
All great chefs have two things in common. First, they respect nature as the true artist, and they are just cooks. Second, everything that they do is an extension of them as a person.
Quote by -Marco Pierre White

Quote by -Marco Pierre White
Good people are always forgiving. They close an eye to one's failings.
Quote by -Marco Pierre White
Females make better cooks than men. Females have a better palate. They have a better sense of smell. They never take shortcuts; this is why they're very good in kitchens. The weakness in what they do is they are not as physically strong as men, so they're never really given the opportunity.
Quote by -Marco Pierre White

Quote by -Marco Pierre White
I wouldn't want to be in one room, 20 hours a day, 52 weeks a year, with four white walls and a stove. I think it stunts your growth as a human being.
Quote by -Marco Pierre White
My children are, without question, the most wonderful thing. I've learnt more about myself through my children than any other experience in my life.
Quote by -Marco Pierre White
People still think I led a rock and roll lifestyle. I was in my kitchen 100 hours a week; I didn't have time to do that.
Quote by -Marco Pierre White
My cooking attracted celebrities. I met Sylvester Stallone. He squeezed my bicep and said: 'I don't usually eat your kind of food, but for you, I ate it.' I haven't got a clue what he'd eaten but he asked me to cook for his wedding feast when he married Jennifer Flavin at Blenheim Palace.
