It takes a little time, but the pleasures of cooking begin before the pleasures of the palate, and preparing means anticipating.

Umberto Eco

People only have guilty pleasures when they crowbar pleasure down their throat all the time and then they reach for the brownies. Then you should feel guilty because you're killing your body and that's something to be guilty about.

Hal Sparks

I once heard that Quentin Tarantino, who I obviously love and think is a genius, says that there's no such thing as guilty pleasure, there's only pleasures. And I do love that idea, because I do think that there's a pretentiousness when people make a list of their favorite things. I like to live a life where I don't think of my pleasures as guilty pleasures.

Mindy Kaling

When Van Truex defined the difference between designing and decorating, he used the analogy of preparing a roast of beef. Design, he said, is the preparation and cooking; decorating is the final seasoning, the savoring.

Albert Hadley

I did try fillers once. Don't ever have fillers because when your cheekbones are high, it's chipmunk time.

Felicity Kendal

Self help books are pointless. Here's something for you... Men are from Mars, women are from Venus, and self help books are from Uranus.

Craig Ferguson

Americans get fatter and fatter and buy more and more diet books, but you don't lose weight by buying diet books - you go on a diet. It's easy to read a diet book, but it's hard to go on a diet.

Marshall Goldsmith

In this job, there are some simple pleasures that really help you cope. One is books, I mean, books are a great escape. Books are a way to get your mind on something else.

George W. Bush

There are thousands of books on the joy of gardening and cooking. Alas, there are only few on the joy of living.

Robert Muller

You have to put your partner and family at the top of the list and there must be downtime - time for gardening, cooking time, book reading time.

Shirley Ballas

There are as many attitudes to cooking as there are people cooking, of course, but I do think that cooking guys tend - I am a guilty party here - to take, or get, undue credit for domestic virtue, when in truth cooking is the most painless and, in its ways, ostentatious of the domestic chores.

Adam Gopnik

What's my guilty pleasure? The thing is, I never feel guilty about pleasures.

Tom Hiddleston

I don't believe in guilty pleasures. If you enjoy something, there's nothing guilty about it.

Busy Philipps

Although I enjoy digging through the library to help students find books, my aim is to help them develop self-confidence in choosing books for themselves.
