I am a great supporter of [Matteo ] Renzi, he is young, he knows how to communicate, he's our great hope.

I don't like fashionistas. They only wear the brand. You want to become a fashionista? Easy! Spend money.

Divine love always has met and always will meet every human need.

For my part, my interest in Paris had faded away completely long ago when I learned that it was in France.

When you're dealing with serious subjects, there is a pressure to be absolutely sure that you know what you're doing.

Escapist literature gets a bad rap. But I think escape is important for a lot of people in a lot of places.
