I am going in now for interior decoration. By that I mean supplying objets d'art and giving advice regarding the decoration of their houses to wealthy persons who do not have the time, inclination, nor culture to do such work for themselves. It is nothing new. Women have done the same thing before.

Simplicity, suitability and proportion.

Good dressing is largely a question of detail and accessories.

When I am no longer being copied, I shall know that I am a back number. ... the fear of being copied is often the characteristic of the meager imagination.

Be pretty if you can, be witty if you must, but be gracious if it kills you.

You will soon find that your joy in your home is growing, and that you have a source of happiness within yourself that you had not suspected.

I know of nothing more significant than the awakening of men and women throughout our country to the desire to improve their houses. Call it what you will - awakening, development, American Renaissance - it is a most startling and promising condition of affairs.
