There's no reason for unhappiness if you're living with nice design.

I'm so involved in melancholy.

I equate peonies with love because they're the first blooms of summer.

The more relaxed you can get, the better you'll do

I think that 60 percent of inspiration is organization.

Even though I grew up as a Sephardic Jew in Brooklyn where we ate Syrian food and went to temple, it was still America.

I'm all about exuberance. We only have one short life to live, and we shouldn't waste it being tasteful.
