When I got to France I realized I didnt know very much about food

When I got to France I realized I didnt know very much about food at all. Id never had a real cake. Id had those cakes from cake mixes or the ones that have a lot of baking powder in them. A really good French cake doesnt have anything like that in it – its all egg power. – Julia Child

I hate organized religion. I think you have to love thy neighbor as thyself. I think you have to pick your own God and be true to him. I always say him rather than her. Maybe its because of my generation, but I dont like the idea of a female God. I see God as a benevolent male. – Julia Child
