Im going from doing all of the work to having to delegate the work – which is almost harder for me than doing the work myself. Im a lousy delegator, but Im learning. – Alton Brown
I am a filmmaker. That is all Ive ever been. You know, Martin Scorsese makes films about the mob. And I make movies about food. – Alton Brown
I kept thinking, Somebody has to make a food show that is actually educational and entertaining at the same time… a show that got down to the why things happen. Plus, I hated my job – I didnt think it was very worthwhile. – Alton Brown
I say grace. Im a big believer in grace. I happen to believe in a God that made all the food and so Im pretty grateful for that and I thank him for that. But Im also thankful for the people that put the food on the table. – Alton Brown
For So Cold the River, Im actually working on adapting the book with Scott Silver, who was just nominated for an Oscar for The Fighter, and who also wrote 8 Mile, which I think is a terrific screenplay. The chance to work with Scott is a tremendous pleasure and Im learning a lot. – Michael Koryta
