I learned that people don't buy anything from unknown stores.

Our underwear used to just be cotton, but we wanted to see if we could create something out of synthetics.

It is clothes. It is parts. Therefore, you combine the parts differently to create your own unique expression.

Japanese businesspeople and companies are lacking in individuality.

Konosuke Matsushita was a visionary entrepreneur. He started working very young as a teenager, and he eventually created Panasonic to become a truly global company.

Japan's biggest problems are conservatism and cowardice.

America, for me, is the country where, if you have something great to offer, you'll be valued highly.
