The age in which we live, this non-stop distraction, is making it more impossible for the young generation to ever have the curiosity or discipline... because you need to be alone to find out anything.

I've got a terrible memory; it's probably because I'm always concentrating on what I'm doing now.

I didn't want to be a fashion designer, and for a good half of my career I didn't like it. I always wanted to do other things.

I have certain signatures, certain cutting principles. It could be a raw-edged seam; it could be leaving the lining of sheepskin exposed so it's not perfectly finished. I invent new ways to do it, but the end goal is always the same.

You make a movie, and if there's a red light flashing in the distance, everyone thinks that the director had a whole lot of money and a great idea that the red light means something. Then you say, 'Yeah, we couldn't afford to shut the red light off that was broken two blocks away.'

I consider it a great honor to be able to step on stage every night and do a show that people have paid money to see.

The circulation of confidence is better than the circulation of money.

Money makes it easier to dream.
