Ultimately, I want to make everyone horny.

I like my time on earth. And no matter what kind of cards I've been dealt, I'm happy to be there.

There are so many great 19th-century photographers, and it's really my favorite period, but the amateurs did such beautiful work.

People say hello to me. I mean, sometimes the sanitation truck goes by and says, hey Patti.

My mother had no end of tragedy in her life. She would make herself get up and take a deep breath and go out and do laundry. Hang up sheets.

I know fashion is a material thing, but we live in a material world and I love clothes.

The way our big cities change sucks. The beauty of cities was that they were edgy, sometimes even a little dangerous. Artists, poets, and activists could come and unify and create different kinds of scenes. Not just fashion scenes, scenes that were politically active. Big cities are getting so high-end oriented, business corporate fashion, fashion not in an artistic sense but in a corporate sense. For me that edgy beauty of cities is lost, wherever you go.
