Gordon Ramsay's Quotes

• From an early age I understood that cooking was never going to be a job, it's a passion. Poor old Antony Worrall Thompson, poor old Delia Smith, I don't think the penny's dropped yet!
• I may have a bit of a side to me that enjoys banter but nine times out of ten it is someone else who throws the first punch.
• I have to laugh when someone calls me an a*****e. I've been called far worse than that.
• Some can handle it, and some can't. I'm not interested in the ones who can't.
• Tana and I have a great marriage, even though we spend very little time together. The time we have together is quality, rather than quantity.
