Quote by Tom Colicchio

We are not really privy to all that crazy stuff that goes on in the show. I go to work, eat, and talk about food. The wild things happen when we aren't around. I expected Top Chef to last three or four seasons and we are now shooting season ten.

The best results are achieved by using the right amount of effort in the right place at the right time. And this right amount is usually less than we think we need.
