Gordon Ramsay QUOTES

1 " The minute you start compromising for the sake of massaging somebody's ego, that's it, game over. "

― Gordon Ramsay

2 " That's common sense Joe! And your tiny mind is not common! "

― Gordon Ramsay

3 " I don't think people grasp the real me when they see me on television. I've got the wonderful family, the big house, the flash car. I run several of the world's best restaurants. I'm running round, cursing and swearing, telling people what to do. They probably think: that flash bastard. But my life, like most people's, is about hard work. It's about success. Beyond that, though, something else is at play. I'm as driven as any man you'll ever meet. When I think about myself, I still see a little boy who is desperate to escape, and keen to please. I just keep going, moving as far away as possible from where I began. Work is who I am, who I want to be. I sometimes think that if I were to stop working, I'd stop existing. "

6 " Don't take it personally. Just take it seriously. "

― Gordon Ramsay

7 " To walk into an office and have your ‘good morning’ returned with a grunt and no eye contact is not my idea of a happy house. There is always time to acknowledge that Someone is more important than Something, even if it takes a couple of precious minutes. "

― Gordon Ramsay , Playing With Fire

8 " Addicts are selfish, the most selfish people you’ll ever meet. And self-pitying. And manipulative. Always making promises they’ll never keep. They disgust me. "

― Gordon Ramsay , Roasting in Hell's Kitchen: Temper Tantrums, F Words, and the Pursuit of Perfection

9 " But I love women chefs: they are intelligent, they are fast learners, and they can be tough. As for the effect the have on the boys, its entirely positive. Put a woman in a kitchen and discipline will improve, if anything: the guys have being told off in front of the girls. It's a playground thing - they just find it embarrassing. "

― Gordon Ramsay , Humble Pie

10 " Swearing is industry language. For as long as we're alive it's not going to change. You've got to be boisterous to get results.

11 " You’ve got to kiss arse to get somewhere, to learn. Clock-watchers are no good at kissing arse. "

― Gordon Ramsay , Roasting in Hell's Kitchen: Temper Tantrums, F Words, and the Pursuit of Perfection

12 " Where's the lamb sauce?! "

― Gordon Ramsay

13 " I recall when we opened in New York how the designer locks were impossible to slide shut, often leading to a difficult encounter no matter which side of the door you were on. "

― Gordon Ramsay , Playing With Fire

14 " Put on a fireman’s uniform and walk past the fire because it’s your lunch break, and you are dead. Grab a bucket and start throwing water over the blaze and you are seen to be God’s little helper. "

― Gordon Ramsay , Playing With Fire

15 " you need to know what you’re aiming for in order to reach it. "

― Gordon Ramsay , Playing With Fire

16 " A recipe is a guideline. Adding, subtracting, evolving it - that is part of the pleasure. "

― Gordon Ramsay , Cooking for Friends

17 " Loo doors without a decent, large hook are as infuriating as a lock that doesn’t offer you full protection. "

― Gordon Ramsay , Playing With Fire

18 " But sometimes you have to question even the best and greatest. Cookery is quite a journey. Take nothing for granted. "

― Gordon Ramsay , Cooking for Friends

19 " Now I was lucky, in a way, because my money didn’t come overnight. It started with a gradual easing of housekeeping restraints so that Tana could shop without working out the sums beforehand. She could impulse-buy and fill the kitchen shelves with things that were fun to buy, even if they never saw the light of day again. Norwegian wooden toothpicks, plastic swords for the olives, pink loo paper with the imprint of raspberries "

― Gordon Ramsay , Playing With Fire

20 " Adapting a recipe's ingredients is completely in your hands. But the method is what really matters. The techniques in cooking are rigorous and imperative: They are your passport to a successful dish. Cooks must practice, practice, practice. Anyone can learn, but you need focus, proper understanding, and to go at the right pace, not running before you can walk. "
