Do I make fashion mistakes? Yes, but I won't say what.

My summer time tip is to wear shorts and light shirts; everything in summery fabrics such as linen and cotton. And don't think about work.

The worst times can be the best if you think with positive energy.

Italian style for me is to have a sense of tradition, respect for one's roots, and a sartorial approach.

You like? You are happy? Yes? Okay, go! Go in the street.

Personally I am not very self-reliant when it comes to internet and computers.

Twitter? No, I'd rather use phone and texts.

I hope the people remember Dolce & Gabbana for the sensuality, for the Mediterranean sense, for our honesty to the life.

My morning routine is quite common: I have breakfast at home while reading the newspaper, I take a shower, get dressed, a spray of cologne, and I am ready to go!

For all Italian people, family is very important. We don't fight with our families.

Beauty exists, even in unlikely places. The key isn't to open your eyes but to open your heart.

Love is a spiritual soul.

I'm not going to get establishment support. I'm not going to get the support of the governors and the senators, with few exceptions, and many of the major organizations.

Stories are the best democracy we have. We are allowed to become the other we never dreamed we could be.

I'm not going to hang out with celebrities, I'm not going to parties. I have two songs due for Moana next week, and I'm going to go and spend some time with Maui and Moana in the ocean, in my mind.

My vanity is not remotely physical, it is cerebral. I suppose feeling self-conscious might be a form of vanity, though.

in California I began to think that, except on the beaches, no-one had the use of their legs.

Physical exercise makes you more graceful. After some gymnasitics you walk as if the whole street is yours.

The goal isn’t to make something everyone will love; the goal is to get excited, and make a thing where something wasn’t before.

Anyone must be mainly ignorant or thoughtless, who is surprised at everything he sees; or wonderfully conceited who expects everything to conform to his standard of propriety.
