Line 147:
** And, to be honest, the degree is just a tool to get one's foot in the door. If you've had the aforementioned experience and spent several of those years of experience being taught by a working chef, you can skip the degree.
* [[MythBusters|Adam Savage's]] mantra: "failure is always an option", which he explains as meaning that even a failure is data that we can learn from.

* The famous Edison quote: "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work."
