To me, beauty and makeup and color is like the finishing touch on everything.

I always find beauty in things that are odd and imperfect - they are much more interesting.

You can never please everyone, and I think it's best not to.

Let's do what we love and do a lot of it.

I like people who have a sense of individuality. I love expression and anything awkward and imperfect, because that’s natural and that’s real.

Life is a fashion show, the world is your runway.

Change is a great and horrible thing, and people love it or hate it at the same time. Without change, however, you just don't move.

I wouldn't know how to find eBay on the computer if my life depended on it.

There is never a wrong time for a polka dot.

One thing that is exciting about fashion is the surprise element. People don't know what they want. They just know when they see it.

What's worked for me is not quitting and being passionate about what I do and not giving up - and when I don't believe in myself, turning to others who believe in me.

I will not dumb myself down to make someone else more comfortable with their ignorance.

It's all about proximity.

One's style holds one, thankfully, at bay from the enemies of it but not from the stupid crucifixions by those who must willfully misunderstand it.

Or people who have one baby and go buy a minivan... how big is your baby?

No matter how prosperous a man was, if he was unable to rule his women and his children (and especially his women) he was not really a man.

I love meeting people who have absolutely no sense of irony. It's really fascinating to imagine what it would be like to go through life without understanding even the most basic of ironies.

The only justifications for belief have the form "justified for me".

I thought I knew Elton John, but then it was like, "Woah, Elton's a pimp! He's really amazing." And since Billy and Elton are homies, I'm finally getting it - the two piano boys.

If you can help anybody even a little, be glad; up the steps of usefulness and kindness, God will lead you on to happiness and friendship.

And when neither their property nor honour is touched, the majority of men live content, and he has only to contend with the ambition of a few, whom he can curb with ease in many ways.
