I am Valentino Rossi. If I stay in MotoGP it is to try to win. When that is not possible it is time to stay at home and work in the garden!

Elegance is the balance between PROPORTION, EMOTION & SURPRISE.

I know what women want. They want to be beautiful.

Only wear clothes that make you feel alive.

When I entertain at home, I take time and pleasure in the small details that make all the difference. Entertaining is about giving to people and sharing with them.

I am especially grateful that I have been able to keep my own style over the decades, in spite of the many changes that have taken place in the world of fashion and in its business.

I am like a freight train. Working on the details, twisting them and playing with them over the years, but always staying on the same track.

There are only three things I can do - make a dress, decorate a house, and entertain people.

I put the number 7 on my t-shirt because this is the number of my championships but also because it was the number of Barry Sheene, who was a great hero of mine and a truly great racer.

An evening dress that reveals a woman's ankles while walking is the most disgusting thing I have ever seen.

I like things simple.

Mostly the greedy rich is responsible for the poor’s poverty!

God created paper for the purpose of drawing architecture on it. Everything else is at least for me an abuse of paper.

I think all actors are supposed to be character actors.

Any MC who chooses to go up against me is getting taken advantage of like Monica Lewinski

Only if there's an outbreak of the bubonic plague.

We are limited by our visual, physical senses; yet from the Scriptures we can readily conclude that heaven is indeed not distant at all. It is nearby.

Take thou of me, sweet pillowes, sweetest bed; A chamber deafe of noise, and blind of light, A rosie garland and a weary hed.

Technique alone is never enough. You have to have passion. Technique alone is just an embroidered potholder.

We don't accomplish anything in this world alone.

What one person can do is to plant the seeds of love and outrage in the hearts of a movement. And if those hearts are fertile ground, those seeds of love and outrage will grow into a revolution.
