I'm not going into the cool club. It's not my address.

I don't like perfection - I think it's dangerous. There is nothing after perfection.

A fragrance is a veritable story, told and explained in scent, in notes, in impressions. It's a score based on the emotions of each instant, a captivating music of the senses.

Run away from laziness; work hard. Touch intuition and listen to the heart, not marketing directors. Dream.

Elegant is not what you wear, and it's not about how you wear it, but it's more about who you are.

Fashion is not about before, it’s not about after, it’s about now

When a woman's clothes are in harmony with her emotions, she shines from within.

Pure, intense emotions. It's not about design. It's about feelings.

If you change a woman's look, you change her persona.

It was not the story of design or clothes, it was the fantasy of women that made me want to work in fashion.

Fashion is like a fruit, you couldn't eat it a day before and you can't eat it a day after; it's just about today

So many of us are causing pain and suffering to ourselves on daily basis, because we do not know the value of life

All action results from thought, so it is thoughts that matter.

Since I sometimes won the race between my fancy and nature’s reality, the deception was bearable. Unbearable pain began when chance entered the fray and deprived me of the smile meant for me.

When little things are so important, it's because there aren't any big ones.

To close the eyes, and give a seemly comfort to the apparel of the dead, is poverty's holiest touch of nature.

At some point I was a HappyAfricanFeminist who does not hate men. And who likes lip gloss and who wears high heels for herself but not for men.

I consider myself a 'local' actor in France. I started out in France, I went to drama school in France and the French film community was very welcoming to me when I was a young actress.

There is something magnificent in having a country to love.

Those two principles: We're supposed to love one another and we're supposed to work together to make the experience better. That's all the religion you need, really, to make a success of this planet.

Pain was something we were expected to endure. But I doubt very much if you would be entirely happy today if a doctor threw a towel in your face and jumped on you with a knife.
