" In order to succeed, you have to fail, no? You ride a bicycle, you fail; you try a few times, you succeed. " - Jacques Torres

" My chocolate is special because it’s real. My pistachios are from Italy, and the almonds are from Spain. We make our own marzipan. If I sell a product that says ‘raspberry,’ it’s real raspberry. My plan was to make the best product possible and be the least expensive of the best chocolate makers. That’s still our position. " - Jacques Torres

" I personally like different chocolates. I like milk chocolate during the day and, during the evening, I like something a little bit stronger with more personality, so maybe a 70-percent or 75-percent bar that’s hopefully made with good beans so it’s not acidic or bitter. " - Jacques Torres

" I’m blessed to do what I love to do every day. " - Jacques Torres
