If it's bitter at the start, then it's sweeter in the end.

You can tell how much fun a city is going to be if Nobu is in it.

I love horses. I think I may have been one of Henry VIII’s knights in another life, riding through a great forest.

For me, it's either you're part of creation or you're part of destruction. It's inexplicable; it's like breathing, and I can't imagine not doing it.
