A sense of humour and a little lack of respect: That's what you need to make a legend survive.
Karl LagerfeldIf you want respect for your past, it means that you have a problem with your present and even more with your future.
Karl LagerfeldI wanted to become a cartoon artist, a portrait artist, and an illustrator. This was my first idea.
Karl LagerfeldI never touch sugar, cheese, bread... I only like what I'm allowed to like. I'm beyond temptation. There is no weakness. When I see tons of food in the studio, for us and for everybody, for me it's as if this stuff was made out of plastic. The idea doesn't even enter my mind that a human being could put that into their mouth. I'm like the animals in the forest. They don't touch what they cannot eat.
