Balenciaga was incredibleI was madly infatuated with his clothes. His clothes were devastating. One fainted. One simply blew up and died.

You can see and feel everything in clothes.

Why don't you have a room done up in every color green? This will take months, years, to collect, but it will be delightful-a melange of plants, green glass, green porcelains, and furniture covered in sad greens, gay greens, clear, faded, and poison greens?

Of course I was always mad about the ballet russe, mad about it!

Parents, you know, can be terrible.

Don't look back. Just go ahead. Give ideas away. Under every idea there's a new idea waiting to be born.

Still, my dream in life is to come home and think of absolutely nothing. After all, you can’t think all the time.
