"I’m always secretly the most pleased when..." - Quote by Anthony Bourdain

“Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.”

“The notion that before you even set out to go to Thailand, you say, 'I'm not interested,' or you're unwilling to try things that people take so personally and are so proud of and so generous with, I don't understand that, and I think it's rude. You're at Grandma's house, you eat what Grandma serves you.”

“Chefs are fond of hyperbole, so they can certainly talk that way. But on the whole, I think they probably have a more open mind than most people.”

“Nature, even when she is scant and thin outwardly, satisfies us still by the assurance of a certain generosity at the roots.”

“And I leave you now, not with sadness but with satisfaction and joy that we came together and walked, arm in arm, through this brief moment of eternity. Who could ask for more?”

“We are never further from what we wish than when we believe that we have what we wished for.”

“Problems in human engineering will receive during the coming years the same genius and attention which the nineteenth century gave to the more material forms of engineering.We have laid good foundations for industrial prosperity, now we want to assure the happiness and growth of the workers through vocational education, vocational guidance, and wisely managed employment departments. A great field for industrial experimentation and statemanship is opening up.”

“Plan your work for today and every day, then work your plan.”

“People work better when they know what the goal is and why. It is important that people look forward to coming to work in the morning and enjoy working.”
