Quotes by Heston Blumenthal
As we get older, we tend to become more risk averse because we tend to find reasons why things won't work. When you are a kid, you think everything is possible, and I think with creativity it is so important to keep that naivety.
I haven’t raised my voice for eight to 10 years in the kitchen. And I won’t have anybody shouting. If I hear of anybody having a go at anyone else, they’ll get disciplined.
I’m not scared of anything in particular, but I am motivated by a fear of failure as opposed to a need to succeed.
I still love doing what I do, and I’m really lucky to get up in the morning and want to go to work.
