My personal ambition remains the same - to be creative, to be modern, to stay one step ahead, to enjoy life.

As an entrepreneur, what drives you has to be the good news; otherwise, you just don't get out of bed.

I don't have a mentor in the strict definition. I take as much advice and inspiration as I can from the people I am close to.

Part of creating the future is to follow this consumer. Women are working; we've moved the store to the desk. Now though, she's is in the back of a cab with her iPhone or her iPad, she's tweeting an outfit that her friend is wearing and desperately trying to find out where she got her shoes online.

My dad taught me never to be afraid of what's on the other side of the mountain.

I always thought I looked kind of like Keith Richards, and sometimes I think I look like Michael Jackson.

Only twice I let people talk me out of good ideas.
