Every since high school I've been drawn to magazines.

Style tells you a lot more about the truth than substance, because it comes at the truth in an oblique way, it comes in on a slant, it doesn't tell you what it is. It's unexpected and it makes you laugh and think.

Style lasts forever and taste doesn't.
