Whenever I sign a garment with my name, I consider myself as the creator of the masterpiece.

It is what a woman, leaves off, not what she puts on that gives her cachet

I am an artist, not a dressmaker.

Just as Adam produced Woman without a woman, the Virgin produced the Second Adam without a man.

Life goes on, and deadlines arrive, even when it seem the world should stop out of respect for a shattered self-esteem.

I've been called the journeyman. It's really more by default than it is by design.

People are amazed because I don't get much with the colds. Sometimes in the spring or in the fall, I'll get a little hay fever.

The power of now can only be realized now. It requires no time and effort. Effort means you're trying hard to get somewhere, and so you are not present, welcoming this moment as it is.

Maybe the biggest thing that I've learned musically is that anything is possible. Things can work when maybe they don't seem like they can.

As a matter of fact, when people ask where my 'point of view' comes from, it was there in one of the first sketches we wrote for [Dean] Martin and [Jerry] Lewis.

Thus when I have to summarize naturalized spirituality in a single phrase, it is this: the thoughtful love of life.

There is still quite the vibe out there that as a parent you have to be completely in control and in charge.
