I never wear very serious suits. I don't have to because I don't go to an office, so it's fine.

As a kid I collected stamps, pebbles on the beach, anything. I liked to have at least 10 of something.

Obviously if you are an accountant, a criminal lawyer, a president, or a senator, or if you work in a funeral parlor, you have to wear a tie, but more and more people are wearing very casual clothes.

I'm always interested in finding the new trend. If you love pizza every day, after 22 years of eating pizza, you want to try sushi.

Sense of humor is important in life, not just in clothing. How boring to live a life in beige.

Every five years, I decide to learn something new.

In the last 20 years of collecting contemporary African art, I have been bombarded by incredible shapes and colors that I now want to translate into clothes.

If I had done what I was programmed to do, I would now be sitting in a car factory looking at the sizes of wheels, or wondering how to get credit to start a new factory in Russia.

It would be much easier to just make black, brown and beige clothes. But I do not see the world in black and white and beige. I find colors incredibly important.

I'd love to open a private museum in Paris, London, or New York, but I don't have the money. If I were Bill Gates or Paul Allen, the first thing I would do is build a museum.

For me to be pompous is the most horrible thing in the world. It's like putting a wall around you. It screws you up. You'd better be willing to change your views or adapt and be modern.

We must graciously endure the times.

It doesn't matter if you never see someone again, I told myself. There are millions of people in the world, and most of them never see each other in the first place.

When men decide in their secretly dark or hungry hearts to work their own will, there is little that can stop them. They have inner weather, sometimes unpredictable.

Your dreams are ink

I love dry British humor. I love to sketch in my off time. I love tequila.

Be as nice as possible and as nasty as necessary.

I love Fear Factor, but I think they're running out of fears. It's only a matter of time before they're sitting around doing shots of Hepatitis C.

We cannot separate the air that chokes from the air upon which wings beat.

I can't live off of yesterday - that's in the past.

Only in action can you fully realize the forces operative in social behavior. That is why I am an experimentalist.
