I was born with music inside me. That's the only explanation I know of

I don't sing a song unless I feel it. The song don't tug at my heart, I pass on it. I have to believe in what I'm doing.

If you can play the blues, you can do anything.

Love is a special word, and I use it only when I mean it. You say the word too much and it becomes cheap.

The role of the designer is basically that of a good host, anticipating the needs of the guest.

I'm not into the money thing. You can only sleep in one bed at a time. You can only eat one meal at a time, or be in one car at a time. So I don't have to have millions of dollars to be happy. All I need are clothes on my back, a decent meal, and a little loving when I feel like it. That's the bottom line.

I had to pawn my clothes just to pay my rent.
