I'd already decided I wanted to design shoes after I saw a sign in the Museum of African and Oceanic Art forbidding high heels. Well, who could resist?

To feel like a woman, wear heels, to feel like a goddess, wear five inches.

Eisenhower is my choice as the American of the 20th Century. Of all the men I've studied and written about, he is the brightest and the best.

The art of illusion is grace itself.

For a long time I heard rap without paying attention, but it is still a way of life, even when you're a kid.
