I just don't like conspicuous consumption. I find it distasteful.

I have my mantra about silhouette, proportion, and fit. I believe that when they are in harmony and balance, you’ll look great in anything.

If I had to choose a single destination where I'd be held captive for the rest of my time in New York, I’d choose the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

You can be too rich and too thin, but you can never be too well read or too curious about the world.

I don't know why I've always been so captivated by architecture.

Life is not a solo act. It's a huge collaboration, and we all need to assemble around us the people who care about us and support us in times of strife.

If you have to ask if a clothing item is a dress or a top, it is always a top.

Take the high road. No matter how much strife, and consternation, frustration and anger you might be confronted with - don't go to that level.

Leggings are everywhere, indeed. Personally, I'm not crazy about them, but they can look great with the right look, a tunic, for instance, or a long cardigan. Just don't try to dress them up!

I want to say to anyone who works in a drone workplace, raise the bar! There's no reason why you have to dress to the lowest common denominator.

The clothes we wear send a message about how the world perceives us.

One might almost define intelligence as the level at which an aware organism demands, 'What's in it for me?

The mind is a fathomless mystery.

Every secret of a writer’s soul, every experience of his life, every quality of his mind, is written large in his works.

Once a woman has forgiven her man, she must not reheat his sins for breakfast.

Being born in Kansas City, Missouri and raised in the very rural parts of Kansas led me to believe that everything was simple, everything made sense and that anything was possible.

Wherever men have lived, there is a story to be told

When two peoples share a common passion: they are capable of empathising with each other's misery.

Whoever can't see the whole in every part plays at blind man's bluff. A wise man tastes the entire Tigris in every sip.

Are you pro- or anti-macassar?

Duty does not have to be dull. Love can make it beautiful and fill it with life.
