Ich glaube, die Rechte der Staaten waren eine solide Lehre, die einige unappetitliche Kunden für eine Weile missbraucht haben - etwa 150 Jahre oder so. Ich bin beruflich verpflichtet zu glauben, dass Wissen besser ist als Ignoranz, aber manche Arten von Vergessen sind für mich in Ordnung.

I think I got an Instamatic camera when I was 8 years old, and ever since then, I've liked to record things. I don't know why. Maybe it's just to kind of try to leave some kind of record behind.

I think a lot of food shows, especially when we started 'Good Eats' back in the late '90s, they were still really about food. 'Good Eats' isn't about food, it's about entertainment. If, however, we can virally infect you with knowledge or interest, then all the better.
