I hate grunge. It was the worst period of my life.

I love street, adore street. Life is about mixing things and to be divine in the streets. Voila!

You can squint and see something else, or something will come forward in the paint. You'll always see something else.

You have to want to dare being a model. You have to dare or you don't go that step further. You have to be willing to stretch - and to not only be willing to stretch, but to want to stretch.

Style doesn't have seasons.

I personally do not think that I have ever done, in my working life, anything vulgar. I know I've done provocative things.

You cannot squelch what's happening at the moment - you cannot put a lid on it and squash it down.

I remember once I didn't like a dress that we had to shoot - I'll never forget this - and so I turned it inside out and put it on the model backward.

I wear all my T-shirts from Helmut Lang with the holes in the elbows, which people always speak of. When my husband gets a hole in his sweater, at his elbow, he says, "It's very Helmut Lang!"

Helmut Lang is an amazing man - always striving, always moving forward.

I was fascinated looking at John Galliano's couture. They're just extraordinary extravaganzas and I love it. I love looking at it because it's like going to a museum.

You'll become that devil overnight, if you want to become that celebrity overnight.

Panic is poison.

When I battle wits with Jarod Kintz I always feel like I need to take my brain out to give him a transplant. Bad part is we don't have any.

Everything you read, becomes a part of your life.

Only the man who disciplines himself strictly can stand for long the terrific pace of modern war.

The truth is that stress doesn't come from your boss, your kids, your spouse, traffic jams, health challenges, or other circumstances. It comes from your thoughts about these circumstances.

Music has always been a part of me and art in general. I love visual art as well.

So each had a private little sun for her soul to bask in; some dream, some affection, some hobby, or at least some remote and distant hope.

I'm a democrat - I don't support Bush, I don't support Blair, I don't support Bin Laden.

Free speech carries with it the evil of all foolish, unpleasant venomous things that are said but, on the whole, we would rather lump them than do away with them.
