People always comment about my clothes. They don't think a fashionable woman can love food and be knowledgeable and actually cook.

I always loved my bangles, I can't remember a time when I didn't have a bangle on.

I know most people use their phones to tell time, but there's something very romantic and beautiful about a timepiece.

Where is it written that a smart woman can't also be stacked?

I love clothes, but really I don't have that much to say about skirts. Before I was writing, I went to fashion shows only when the designer was a good friend and I was there to show support.

The best thing you can do for someone is make them a beautiful plate of food. How else can you invade someone's body without actually touching them?

Beauty is no accomplishment on its own. It's what you do with it.

I've always had a fantasy to write a cookbook, because everyone wants to know what a model eats.

I'm not tough. I'm tenacious.

It doesn't matter how precisely the onion is cut as long as the person chewing it is happy.

Women's voices not being heard is the root of many of the problems of the world.

My last refuge, my books: simple pleasures, like finding wild onions by the side of a road, or requited love.

Trust your soul.It alone knows what you are here to do in this lifetime and what will actually make you happy.

A lot of people who are straight-shooting…they’re only happy to be so blunt when talking about others. They’re not so upfront about who they are, what flaws they have, and what their issues are.

Dieting is murder on the road. Show me a man who travels and I'll show you one who eats.

We do not want to merely “see” beauty. We want to be united with it, to receive it into ourselves, to become part of it.

I try and keep an open mind to peoples paths. The only thing that annoys me is negative poopy people and they come from all kinds of places. But I rarely have to deal with negative reactions.

Over the years the political establishment has frowned if a mainstream politician mentions marriage.

Be fluid. Treat each project differently. Be water, man. The best style is no style. Because styles can be figured out. And when you have no style they can't figure you out.

I really think that creating clothes and fashion has to be a statement about how we live and where we live and what's happening in the world.

We shall use only peaceful means and we shall not permit any other kind of method.
