My life has been a dream. If someone had to write a story about it, it would seem a little unreal. It's the kind of story I would read and say, 'Nah, that's not possible.'

People ask how can a Jewish kid from the Bronx do preppy clothes? Does it have to do with class and money? It has to do with dreams.

I think the accessories look very modern and very exciting. These big earrings, these big hoops. I think the girls are sort of falling in love with... collars, neck collars.

My wife Ricky is my muse. Her personal style and natural beauty have always been my inspiration.

Each day is an occasion to reinvent ourselves

Style is very personal. It has nothing to do with fashion. Fashion is over quickly. Style is forever.

Fashion is not necessarily about labels. It's not about brands. It's about something else that comes from within you.

Personal style is about taking a risk, trying something unexpected, and having fun with fashion, but always being true to yourself.

What I do is about living. It's about living the best life you can and enjoying the fullness of the life around you- from what you wear, to the way you live, to the way you love.

Personal style is about a sense of yourself, a sense of what you believe in and wearing what you like.

Enjoy your family. Do things that you like to do. Stay strong. That's the secret to remaining happy.

Barnby always dismissed the idea of intelligence in a woman as no more than a characteristic to be endured.

Just as every challenge helps us in evolving

Rejection is part of the game. Or rather, rejection is part of the profession. A profession which at times can feel like a game.

I don't want to change. I haven't done it before, I won't do it now.

I have always held the view that decisive force should be used in addressing a military conflict. The reason is simple: Why wouldn't you, if you could?

Talk uses up ideas. Once I have spoken them aloud, they are lost to me, dissipated into the noisy air like smoke. Only if I bury them, like bulbs, in the rich soil of silence do they grow.

I do not recall spending long hours in front of a mirror loving my reflection.

Leaders are forced to kill all the time. Then they have to learn to live with the decisions they make. Just like I'm going to learn to live with mine.

I had 13 weeks off and I would pack up the family and drive to some mountain retreat where we could be together and fish all day. I loved it. I needed it.

Goods gone bad, but right is wrong, and I don't know which side I'm on lately.
