Get on the fashion nerves of your peers, not your parents - that is the key to fashion leadership.

I would describe myself as a writer that hopes to take you into my world and help you feel a little safer.

I'm perpetual tourist, and that's the best way to travel. Nobody gets used to you, you make new friends without having to hear anyone's everyday problems, and you jet back still feeling like a know-it-all.

If you think someone's trying too hard, that's the worst thing they can do. To me, it's just desperate, never funny and never witty. It's kind of really old hat because just being shocking isn't enough. It has to change how you think about something. It has to startle you. It has to make you look at something and reconsider whether you're right. That's the whole point.

I don't believe in depression. There's no such thing. It's an invention. It's bullshit, it's a cop out.
