When you take a picture of someone, never show it to them right away. If they don't like it, they may erase it.

As a kid I collected stamps, pebbles on the beach, anything. I liked to have at least 10 of something.

Obviously if you are an accountant, a criminal lawyer, a president, or a senator, or if you work in a funeral parlor, you have to wear a tie, but more and more people are wearing very casual clothes.

I'm always interested in finding the new trend. If you love pizza every day, after 22 years of eating pizza, you want to try sushi.

Sense of humor is important in life, not just in clothing. How boring to live a life in beige.

Every five years, I decide to learn something new.

In the last 20 years of collecting contemporary African art, I have been bombarded by incredible shapes and colors that I now want to translate into clothes.

If I had done what I was programmed to do, I would now be sitting in a car factory looking at the sizes of wheels, or wondering how to get credit to start a new factory in Russia.

It would be much easier to just make black, brown and beige clothes. But I do not see the world in black and white and beige. I find colors incredibly important.

I'd love to open a private museum in Paris, London, or New York, but I don't have the money. If I were Bill Gates or Paul Allen, the first thing I would do is build a museum.

For me to be pompous is the most horrible thing in the world. It's like putting a wall around you. It screws you up. You'd better be willing to change your views or adapt and be modern.

Cut out all these exclamation points. An exclamation point is like laughing at your own joke.

Why do we need to wait until somebody sells 10 million records to give people a show like that? What about us smaller, hungry folk? At least gimme a curtain!

I've tried to make music that's more universal, but for me, it's most successful emotionally when it's most specific to what I'm going through.

I stand by every decision I've made throughout my career and my life, good or bad, up or down.

This is your year to accomplish what you've never accomplished before.

All these years I've sat in airports and kind of drawn people and put like Far Side captions on them.

Time is but the shadow of the world upon the background of Eternity.

Once I start putting all my little insecurities in my mind, I'm not actually acting. Then it's about me - and it should never be about me. It should be about the character.

All are seeing God always. But they do not know it.

When our eyes are set on eternity, the news that someone has come to know the Savior means a great deal more than the news of a salary raise or the prospect of getting the latest high-tech gadget.
