The great irony was that, while I was being portrayed as a monster, I was in Khatmandu with my children, doing soup kitchens for Tibetan refugees, using all the money from my records to feed three hundred people a day, and working with monks connected to the Sammye Ling Buddhist centre in Scotland.
Soup is a lot like a family. Each ingredient enhances the others; each batch has its own characteristics; and it needs time to simmer to reach full flavor.
I can eat any soup, but it just has to have a nice taste. It’s like chocolate – if you eat a dessert at the end of the meal, you want the dessert to be perfect.
I famously tasted shark fin soup many, many years ago before we understood exactly what was going on with the harvesting of sharks. I’ve consequently come out against it. I make personal choices in my life and stand behind them.
I think of New York as a puree and the rest of the United States as vegetable soup.
Everyday I eat some soup. This is part of our culture – our mommies and grammies make it, and at any restaurant in Serbia, you can go in and find some soup. There might be minestrone, butternut squash, chicken noodle soup, tomato soup, mushroom soup, lamb soup. Whatever you can find, you can make a soup with that.
The ideology of consumption is so prevalent that it has become invisible: it is the plastic soup in which we swim.
I’m a big soup guy.

I love a good miso soup: it’s fermented. It really helps with the immune system. I’ll add tofu, carrots and seaweed.
There’s no enemy in the auditioning process. Everybody wants you to be the right person when you walk in the room. We’re all just trying to make a soup here, and they’re trying to figure out the right ingredients for the soup.
Soup is really easy to make: you can take basil, celery, acorn squash and boil them and then put them in the blender with sea salt. It’s delicious and only takes about 15 minutes. You can make it the night before. It’s kind of like making baby puree, and there are a ton of super easy recipes.
History is not a long series of centuries in which men did all the interesting/important things and women stayed home and twiddled their thumbs in between pushing out babies, making soup and dying in childbirth.

A page of my journal is like a cake of portable soup. A little may be diffused into a considerable portion.
I think running a business, doing what I’ve done for the last – since 1996, has taught me so many things because I started from just an idea and then had to figure out how to make it, market it, every single thing from soup to nuts on how to get a product done and out there.
Choose recipes like a base recipe; make a big pot of soup and freeze it. From then on, you can take it in any direction. Another day put rice in it, or then put corn or sausages. From there, it’s endless.
I simply loathe the crude 1960s distinctions between commerce and art. For me, Warhol and pop obliterated all of those separations – that was the whole point of the Brillo Boxes and Campbell’s Soup Cans. And believe it or not, in 2009, moronic journalists are still saying to me, ‘Your work is so commercial.’
On any given day, I want to know which restaurant near me is serving knoephla or chicken dumpling soup.
As for real chicken soup, I have it once or twice a week.

Almost every culture has its own variation on chicken soup, and rightly so – it’s one of the most gratifying dishes on the face of the Earth.
Ever notice that Soup for One is eight aisles away from Party Mix?
Let me be the first to tell you, drinking alcohol is the worst thing to do in cold weather. Hot soup is the best because the process of digesting food helps to warm you up.
Day to day, I love eating soup and salad; lots of stews, fish, chicken, meat and veg. I eat everything, and I don’t have any fads.
I’m always a big fan of a big pot of chicken soup. I like to make a big pot of that, and I keep it in my freezer so when I come off the road and I just want to sit in my pajamas on my couch and catch up on the DVR and dig into a nice big bowl of chicken soup. It feeds my soul.
We tried to make music that had a very diverse collection of genres – jazz, pop, Latin, even the blues. We tried to have a gumbo soup of expressions. We wanted to create music that would have people dive into a pool of artistic beauty and feel good. And I think we have been really blessed.
I love food and lots of my friends are chefs. I love dishes from my Russian-Polish Jewish heritage. I like to make a big pot of meat and vegetable soup, and for dessert it’s anything with chocolate.

My good health is due to a soup made of white doves. It is simply wonderful as a tonic.
Hollywood is the only industry, even taking in soup companies, which does not have laboratories for the purpose of experimentation.
I’ve barfed in movies before. It seems like it always ends up being Campbell’s soup mixed with something else.

There are many things to admire about Japan but this is the one thing I love the most and probably the only time I eat breakfast. Fish, eggs, soup, salad, veggies; all in the tiniest bites. It’s a full meal, but it’s so refreshing.
I eat the same foods almost every day. I have my favorites like Filipino beef broth, chicken soup with lots and lots of rice.
When you have a good stock, you can make a good soup.
On ‘The Soup,’ we were never a political show.
It’s interesting when you talk to someone who has really been through something very, very terrible. They are less likely to talk about it. People who have had a bad day because their soup was cold can talk about their ‘suffering’ all day long.
With Zac Posen gowns, it’s like making an ornate pastry. Then, sometimes, it’s just great to have the perfect chicken soup or consomme. And that’s Brooks Brothers.
When you think of the ‘Exorcist,’ you think of Linda Blair and pea soup and all this madness, but really if you look at the first half of that film, the stuff between her and Ellen Burstyn is so naturalistic and so real.
Ever since Marcel Duchamp appropriated mass market objects and pronounced them ‘readymades’ and Andy Warhol elevated the Campbell’s soup can and Brillo Box to art, artists and designers have been blurring the lines between fine art and commerce.

I think that women just have a primeval instinct to make soup, which they will try to foist on anybody who looks like a likely candidate.
I started working at a soup kitchen in skid row of Los Angeles when I was 13 years old, and the first day, I felt really scared. I was young, and it was rough and raw down there, and though I was with a great volunteer group, I just felt overwhelmed.

When I was a little girl, if I didn’t eat my soup, my mother would say, ‘You have to think of all the Chinese children who have nothing to eat.’ But now, for my children, Chinese people make everything, and for my grandchildren, they buy everything.
You boil down your influences to a soup, and it all informs you.
Since I was a little kid, everybody was paying so much attention to what I looked like, not what I was feeling. You start feeling tired. It’s like eating soup every day. You eat the same soup, and you get bored, so I developed my inner self.
You can do almost anything with soup stock, it’s like a strong foundation. When you have the right foundation, everything tastes good.
Before I got married, I never really watched TV. Now, my husband and I watch ‘The Bachelor’ together. I love ‘The Soup’ – that’s where I get a lot of my pop culture – and ‘Chelsea Lately.’
I love soup ’cause I don’t like to cook. It’s so easy to prepare, and it fills you up and gives you all the nutrients you need. It’s a well-balanced meal, but you don’t have to do a lot of preparation.
