Working at the Food Bank with my kids is an eye-opener. The face of hunger isn't the bum on the street drinking Sterno it's the working poor. They don't look any different they don't behave any differently they're not really any less educated. They are incredibly less privileged and that's it.

I'm a home cook and love to read about food but I'm not trained as a chef. I'm just really into cooking and passionate about it.

I've always done food that can work in a set time frame. The message I'm trying to get across is it doesn't have to take three days to do this. With planning you can do a lot and really have quality food every day.

Well it's very easy for me to gain weight but even though I tried not eating for a week when I was really young I couldn't do it any longer because I liked my food too much.

I can't stay away from Chinese food. I really love that stuff.

When I got to France I realized I didn't know very much about food at all. I'd never had a real cake. I'd had those cakes from cake mixes or the ones that have a lot of baking powder in them. A really good French cake doesn't have anything like that in it - it's all egg power.

When I go on Japanese Airlines I really love it because I like Japanese food.

Christmas is more stressful with present buying and making sure everyone gets included but Thanksgiving is really not that. I don't ever really get stressed out about the food.

I tell my students it's not difficult to identify with somebody like yourself somebody next door who looks like you. What's more difficult is to identify with someone you don't see who's very far away who's a different color who eats a different kind of food. When you begin to do that then literature is really performing its wonders.

We should all grow our own food and do our own waste processing we really should.

When I eat with my friends it is a moment of real pleasure when I really enjoy my life.

If you really want to make a friend go to someone's house and eat with him... the people who give you their food give you their heart.

My mom was a professional fitness competitor so I go into the gym with her. I train with my dad and mother. It's embarrassing because she's really strong.

I also meet with city officials representatives from governors' offices really anyone in that sort of position who has shown an interest in youth fitness to let them know why this sort of program is so important. I give the same message when I speak at conferences.

I was a bit worried coming back to the Premiership from America but I have been pleased with my form and the interest I have received has been good for my ego. I have no worries about my fitness and I am really looking forward to the season starting now.

The health industry the fitness industry was really starting to pick up. This was around the mid 80's.

Overall I think I'm in pretty good shape but I'm not really someone that is gung-ho or a fitness fanatic.

People may say I developed an iron will but what really happened is that I made myself much fitter. I think an iron will is always supported by fitness.

Fitness is a curve. You can be Lance Armstrong or you can be really out of shape at the opposite end. People enter the curve wherever they are and then they can move up the curve by better nutrition and better exercise.

For me triathlons were something that was down to me and my fitness. Now I really enjoy the pain in the triathlon of chasing someone down. It's a bit like chasing down Nico Rosberg in the last few laps at Silverstone - it makes you feel alive.

I suffer panic attacks which has made me really conscious about my fitness and I have become addicted to jogging. It might sound odd but a lot of good has come out of it. My fans send letters saying they have taken up jogging because I do it.

Training is such a vital part of preparation for a game you really do train to play. It tops up your ability like sharpening a carving knife. You can get away with not doing it for a while as long as you have reached a certain standard of fitness.

I do yoga I do Bikram and I run and I eat really healthy.

The confidence is really driven by the woman - whether she can have the confidence that there will be enough earning or income to finance all the domestic spending - but also by the middle-income class which for many Asian countries has become the growth power for the economy.
