“To cook, and to do it well, every talent must be used; the strength of a prize-fighter, the imagination of a poet, the brain of an empire builder, the patience of Job, the eye and the touch of an artist, and, to turn your mistakes into edible assets, the cleverness of a politician.” WellsEyeJobsUsedArtistTurnsImaginationMistakeBrainTalentPoetPoliticianCookingFighterCooksEmpiresPrizeAssetsClevernessBuilder Author:Anne Ellis

“We know Manny [Pacquiao] is a living legend and a hall of fame for sure. He's one of the greatest fighters that has ever lived. For me, I have to go out there and be myself.

“My only talent is that I have a so-called big engine. I can attack on successive days - well maybe now not so often - or ride tempo at the front of the peloton for a week. I'm not a climber or a sprinter. Whatever makes the race sticky, fast and difficult is good for me. I'm just a big motor - I think I'm allowed to say that - and a fighter. I'll do whatever it takes to make the race.” ThinkingDifficultWeekTalentFighterMotorWhatever It Takes Author:Jens Voigt
