Raising livestock and the harvesting of grains are ancient activities, but when did humankind decide it also needed creme brulee?  (Bill Buford Quotes) You can’t do traditional work at a modern pace. Traditional work has traditional rhythms. You need calm. You can be busy, but you must remain calm.  (Bill Buford Quotes) The Rio de Contas, a wide, almost delta-like river, was startling, a sudden big sky and a feeling of openness, and very bright. It was noisy with birds. The rain forest houses most of the earth’s plant and animal population. I hadn’t anticipated it would be so loud.  (Bill Buford Quotes) Bahia is the Amazon’s geographical next-of-kin: the same climate, forest canopy, diverse floor. But there is no wild cacao; the tree was introduced, most likely by a Frenchman, Louis Frederick Warneaux, who, in 1746, sowed seeds near one of Bahia’s large rivers.  (Bill Buford Quotes) Most chartreuse recipes call for one bird, a fat one, like a pigeon or a partridge, secreted inside the casing, a vegetable mold, which is then turned out onto a plate.  (Bill Buford Quotes) The skyline in Alfred Hitchcock’s ‘Rope’ is made up: no, you don’t get the Waldorf and the Chrysler and the Empire State buildings and a dozen other magnificent structures in one window.  (Bill Buford Quotes) The crowd is not us. It never is  (Bill Buford Quotes) The most important knowledge is understanding what you can’t do  (Bill Buford Quotes) The family is the essential presence, the thing that never leaves you, even if you find you have to leave it  (Bill Buford Quotes) You don’t learn knife skills at cooking school, because they give you only six onions and no matter how hard you focus on those six onions there are only six, and you’re not going to learn as much as when you cut up a hundred  (Bill Buford Quotes) You can’t do traditional work at a modern pace. Traditional work has traditional rhythms. You need calm. You can be busy, but you must remain calm  (Bill Buford Quotes) Food made by hand is an act of defiance and runs contrary to everything in our modernity. Find it; eat it; it will go. It has been around for millennia. Now it is evanescent, like a season  (Bill Buford Quotes)
