Jamie Oliver Giving Quotations

God, why do I give interviews to 'the Guardian'? They always try to dissect you, and I don't really think about stuff in the way that you're asking me these questions.

It's very clear that there's a lot of double standards going on. Should there be a 30mph speed limit? Of course there bloody should. And certainly with kids and school food, kids need to be nannied for sure. So give them a bloody good meal at school.

Cooking is the ultimate giving!

I love roasting because you can give it love, get it in the oven and go and play with the kids or whatever you've got to do, and then hours later you've got a lovely dinner.

Give your kids a bloody knife and fork and let me put some fresh food in front of them they can eat.

The whole idea is to earn the flavor. No one gives it to you.
