Madonna is a feminist and has been doing more for the cause than all the grumpy feminists, who are giving nothing back by being grumpy.

My business partner gave me a drone, a small helicopter you pilot with an iPhone, and also it has a camera so you can see what it sees on the iPhone. Great fun. I fly it outside in Portugal. It's wonderful to oversee gardens.

A good shoe is one that doesn't dress you but undresses you.

The shoe is very much an X-ray of social comportment.

My favorite sound is definitely mules. If it was an instrument, it's really pingthe touch of the black keys of the piano.

I hate the idea of natural. For example, I prefer gardens to wild nature. I like to see the human touch. High heels are a complete invention - an extravagance. They're far from natural, but it's the impracticality that I adore. I prefer the useless to the useful, the sophisticated to the natural.

Strangely enough, I really think that shoes are a communication tool between people.
