I was brought up in a way that was based purely on the senses. Everything in my upbringing was a reaction to growing up on an organic farm or to the emotions of animal cruelty, as well as the visuals of my mum's and my father's art - he was also an art collector.

Growing up, I was always really inspired by Disney, and I had a great love of everything they created. My mum was huge fan, and she used to collect stills, and so they were all around the house, and we very much grew up on the early Disney films.

We always had our own vegetables growing up and now I'm doing it with my kids at our house in the country.

My job at the end of the day is to design timeless, desirable, beautiful products. It's not about just designing a bunch of organic jumpers. I have a balance within the brand. If you try to create something people enjoy, and it happens to be made in a responsible way, then that's when you can really strike an incredible balance.

When I see Tiffany windows in churches across the United States, I get a sense of spiritual upliftment from that.

I tremble for my country when I hear of confidence expressed in me. I know too well my weakness, that our only hope is in God.

With my plays, when the lights go down, at least the audience isn't thinking, 'Oh, God, two more hours of this.'

The degree of freedom from unwanted thoughts and the degree of concentration on a single thought are the measures to gauge spiritual progress.
