I was at work but my soul wasn't there, my body was there but I wasn't connecting to what I was doing. Eventually I decided to get out of there and do something I believe in.

I was working a corporate job for years and it always felt restrictive, it felt like I was doing something I wasn't supposed to be doing.

I believe that if you work hard enough and do things the right way recognition will come.

I wanted to give people an experience. I wanted them to get their money's worth.

I wasn't able to afford high-end brands or any of that, so I grew up on streetwear.

I want to represent the street, not in a negative sense, but in the sense that when I was growing up, that's what I grew up on.

The thing is you can be a great designer but you can also be lazy or not understand the other person's preferences or be more concerned about being a star than being good at what you do.

I want to be recognized but I don't seek it out.

Somebody once told me if you're doing what you're supposed to you don't have to force it.

I started out doing everything on a custom scale and when that started paying the bills I started making more pieces.

Starting out is very difficult if you don't have a clientele.

Every good act is like a seed that we sow. We don’t know what it will bear, but it will bear some fruit some day.

A wise man does not eat his seed even in the time of hunger, he knows the value of his seed!

As soon as we open our eyes in the morning, what we want most is to matter, to live a life and to do a work that has meaning. We have evolved to feel this way. Man's first thought was 'I AM'.

English is not merely a language anymore

When I stand and contemplate my fate and see the path along which you have led me, I reach my end, for artless I surrendered to one who is my undoing and my end.

The boughs of no two trees ever have the same arrangement. Nature always produces individuals; She never produces classes.

I heard a guy tell me he liked cherries. I waited to hear if he was going to say "tomatoes", then I realized he like cherries just. That joke is ridiculous.

I don't want to have children...I want to date them!

I like to joke with my wife that she's the CEO of... certainly of our household.

I've always liked Dennis Chambers, he's real flashy.
