For many years, we have repeated that the direct-to-consumer channel is growing and capturing a larger share of our customers' wallet.

Like Free People, the Urban brand is planning to grow by expanding product assortments, expanding the brand reach and by improved marketing.

Going forward, we are mindful of the challenges we face in the competitive retail landscape, but we have demonstrated that our concept of building compelling brands that focus on the customers' lifestyles can produce superior results. We will not waver from that concept.

When our customer leaves Urban Outfitters, the Main Line is the type of place where more of them go than don't.

I know how to make a record that commercial radio or Triple J will smash now... It's kind of hard to stay true and write what you would write if you didn't have that in your head. Because I know I can get way more airplay and get this much bigger... and that's what I'm trying to avoid doing. Trying to avoid the poisons of success.

One measure of your success will be the degree to which you build up others who work with you. While building up others, you will build up yourself.

We're constantly striving for success, fame and comfort when all we really need to be happy is someone or some thing to be enthusiastic about.

The only durable sense of success is if you've followed your calling.
