First of all, I love women. But I lust after beautiful women in the way that I lust after a beautiful piece of sculpture - this will probably get me in trouble - or a beautiful car. I believe everyone's on a sliding scale of sexuality. There are moments where I am sexually attracted to women. But it doesn't overpower my first impulse; my lust for them is the same as my lust for beauty in all things.

I hope people will put aside Tom Ford the fashion designer and think about Tom Ford the filmmaker.

I'm a perfectionist, to the point of insanity.

Never, ever, ever wear anything you are uncomfortable in. Because that is what you'll project: 'I look like a fool.'

It's hard not to be sexy in a pair of high heels.

I believe that when you really want to do something, you should go ahead and do it. I mean, I feel fear, but I never let that stop me.

Glamour is something more than what you put on your body. It has to do with the way you carry yourself and the impact you have on others.
