I replaced the headlights in my car with strobe lights, so it looks like I’m the only one moving.

She was not quite what you would call refined. She was not quite what you would call unrefined. She was the kind of person that keeps a parrot.

I know I’m not supposed to like muscle cars, but I like muscle cars.

I have this old ’57 Porsche Speedster, and the way the door closes, I’ll just sit there and listen to the sound of the latch going, ‚cluh-CLICK-click.‘ That door! I live for that door. Whatever the opposite of planned obsolescence is, that’s what I’m into.

In America, there might be better gastronomic destinations than New Orleans, but there is no place more uniquely wonderful.

Man is the only animal that blushes – or needs to.

I want to be remembered as iconic and different.

I love nerdy, cute, quirky boys who don’t take themselves too seriously.

I have the ’77 Million Paintings‘ running in my studio a lot of the time. Occasionally I’ll look up from what I’m doing and I think, ‚God, I’ve never seen anything like that before!‘ And that’s a real thrill.

I don’t race cars.

I’m the only person you’ve ever met who has read Longfellow.

I was the first person to have a punk rock hairstyle.

The shoe that fits one person pinches another; there is no recipe for living that suits all cases.

Speech is an arrangement of notes that will never be played again.

I hooked up my accelerator pedal in my car to my brake lights. I hit the gas, people behind me stop, and I’m gone.

U2 is an original species… there are colours and feelings and emotional terrain that we occupy that is ours and ours alone.

It was because the chimps are so eye-catching, so like us and teach us so much that my work was recognised worldwide.

I do like Burial; he’s so curiously clumsy, you can’t help but be moved. It’s so un-Hollywood, and the rhythms are so un-danceable.

If you are in a spaceship that is traveling at the speed of light, and you turn on the headlights, does anything happen?

Apple’s market share is bigger than BMW’s or Mercedes’s or Porsche’s in the automotive market. What’s wrong with being BMW or Mercedes?

I try to do something the audience might not have seen before. Like if I’m gonna kiss a girl I wanna kiss her like a girl has never been kissed. Like maybe I would kick her legs out from under her and catch her right before she hits the ground and then kiss her.

I always liked different things, rare things.

The men who followed Him were unique in their generation. They turned the world upside down because their hearts had been turned right side up. The world has never been the same.

The British nation is unique in this respect. They are the only people who like to be told how bad things are, who like to be told the worst.

Winning ‚Motor Trend‘ Car of the year is probably the closest thing to winning the Oscar or Emmy of the car industry.

There’s nowhere else like London. Nothing at all, anywhere.

The fact that over 50 per cent of the residents of Toronto are not from Canada, that is always a good thing, creatively, and for food especially. That is easily a city’s biggest strength, and it is Toronto’s unique strength.

When I was born in 1920, the auto was only 20 years old. Radio didn’t exist. TV didn’t exist. I was born at just the right time to write about all of these things.

The Internet offers opportunities that are more unique than ever before. With TV, I know I’m making 22 minutes; I know there’s a commercial in the middle. With the Internet, no one knows anything. No rules.

I believe in sketching because there is something very sensitive in sketching, you know, in sketches that you don’t have out of a computer that looks the same like everybody even if, later on, the dresses are OK, but I like to sketch, and I like to see trails made after my sketches that look the same. It is you know, what I like.

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

Let us have no machine-made ornament at all; it is all bad and worthless and ugly.

God gave me some weird, beautiful scent that makes men and women go crazy. People compare it to Carvel. It is a whale of a smell.

Nonviolence is a powerful and just weapon. Indeed, it is a weapon unique in history, which cuts without wounding and ennobles the man who wields it.

The thing that makes my clothes really different is that, number one, they are really great designs; they’re not tacky; they are very professional; the design is made from lots of decisions.

I’ve had a fan who made a painting of my face with her fingers. I have put it up in my room. It was sweet and very different.
