You gotta have style. It helps you get down the stairs. It helps you get up in the morning. It's a way of life. Without it, you're nobody.

You know the greatest thing is passion, without it what have you got? I mean if you love someone you can love them as much as you can love them but if it isn’t a passion, it isn’t burning, it isn’t on fire, you haven’t lived.

Fashion must be the most intoxicating release from the banality of the world.

I'm for everybody. There are no set rules. But if one's not a joiner. To hell with all of them!

If you think all the time every day of your life, you might as well kill yourself today and be happier tomorrow.

I was always fascinated by the absurdities and luxuries and the snobbism of the world that fashion magazines showed. Of course, it’s not for everyone...But I lived in that world, not only during my years in the magazines business but for years before, because I was always of that world-- at least in my imagination.

If it isn't a passion, it isn't burning, it isn't on fire, you haven't lived.
