Don’t sacrifice yourself too much, because if you sacrifice... - Karl Lagerfeld

"Luxury is the ease of a t-shirt in a very expensive dress."

"People who do a job that claims to be creative have to be alone to recharge their batteries. You can’t live 24 hours a day in the spotlight and remain creative. For people like me, solitude is a victory."

"Books are a hard-bound drug with no danger of an overdose. I am the happy victim of books."

"Fashion does not have to prove that it is serious. It is the proof that intelligent frivolity can be something creative and positive"

"A respectable appearance is sufficient to make people more interested in your soul"
