Great men are seldom over-scrupulous in the arrangement of their attire.

I think style is being so comfortable and confident in what you’re wearing. That’s what style is, ‚cause everybody’s got different style.

I don’t like to write like God. It is only because you never do it, though, that the critics think you can’t do it.

A lot of people have said I’d have probably done better in my career if I hadn’t looked so cheap and gaudy. But I dress to be comfortable for me, and you shouldn’t be blamed because you want to look pretty.

I have a hat. It is graceful and feminine and give me a certain dignity, as if I were attending a state funeral or something. Someday I may get up enough courage to wear it, instead of carrying it.

Man, the living creature, the creating individual, is always more important than any established style or system.

I liked watching Rossi, his style, his colours and everything. He was someone I looked up to and until now he is still my only hero. He is the king of motorbikes and most people like Rossi mainly because he comes across as a pretty fun and good character. He is cool and has a good style and look.

Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world.

My father used to wear the same pants for like a week.

I’m a really artistic person, and so, with the live stuff, there’s a lot that I think is really cool. Beyonce and Rihanna have all these dancers. So with the live costumes and video costumes, I’d really like to have my vision. The way that I want people to dress is very specific. I love fashion.

The fashion I’ve acquired over the years is so sacred to me – from costumes to couture, high fashion to punk wear I’ve collected from my secret international hot spots. I keep everything in an enormous archive in Hollywood.

I see that the fashion wears out more apparel than the man.

Silence is the element in which great things fashion themselves together.

Dignity, and even holiness too, sometimes, are more questions of coat and waistcoat than some people imagine.

With the NBA’s dress code, I had to revamp my wardrobe a little bit. They call it ‚business casual.‘ You have to wear dress jeans or dress slacks, with a collared shirt or sweater. And you can’t wear athletic shoes.

My wife dresses to kill. She cooks the same way.

Everyone looks at your watch and it represents who you are, your values and your personal style.

I want to look my best for God. So many people have the attitude that if you’re a Christian you’ve got to dress bad, wear an old color, not do anything to your hair, have nothing. It’s no wonder that Christianity is not very attractive. I mean, how many people do you know in a Western culture that’s going to go, ‚Yeah, give me some of that?‘

A women who doesn’t wear perfume has no future.

I like sweaters. I have a sweater obsession, I guess.
