If you saw Queen Elizabeth it would be amazing, she came from another planet. She was so attractive in what she was wearing.

I don’t know who invented high heels, but all women owe him a lot.

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

Bravery never goes out of fashion.

My style offstage is so different from onstage. I love a pair of sexy heels with jeans, a nice jacket, or a little dress.

Archimedes was my ideal. I admired the works of artists, but to my mind, they were only shadows and semblances. The inventor, I thought, gives to the world creations which are palpable, which live and work.

Journalists are usually quite jealous people, especially of intellectuals who are supposed to be in fashion.

No one could have been nicer, classier nor better looking than Dick Clark. I’ve had a crush on him since I was a teenager.

I don’t pity any man who does hard work worth doing. I admire him. I pity the creature who does not work, at whichever end of the social scale he may regard himself as being.

I am attracted to people who make this effort in knowing what suits them – they are individual and stylish.

Teach us that wealth is not elegance, that profusion is not magnificence, that splendor is not beauty.

Everybody looks like clones and the only people you notice are my age. I don’t notice anybody unless they look great, and every now and again they do, and they are usually 70.

Everything has changed, and nothing has changed more than the world of fashion.

Our love, our gratitude, our admiration for our men and women in uniform, our veterans and their families – all of that is bigger than any one party or any one election.

I would like to be a one-man multinational fashion phenomenon.

I admire people who destroy themselves.

Elegance is refusal.

Fashion has become so whatever. I don’t think there are any stones left to unturn.

When I look at acting careers that I really admire, I see that it’s been a precise decision-making process for these people. They make decisions based on what they love, and they do only the things that they are passionate about. They play only characters that they can’t stop thinking about.

When I am putting looks together, I dare myself to make something work. I always look for the most interesting silhouette or something that’s a little off, but I have to figure it out. I have to make it me. I think that’s the thrill in fashion.

I have all the admiration in the world for somebody like Bono, who really puts himself on the line and tries actively to do something about our world situation.

Our admiration of the antique is not admiration of the old, but of the natural.

There’s been a lot of talk about Jack White wanting to work with me, and I’ve always admired him, and of course, he lives in Nashville, too.

I admire Ralph Nader and Denis Kucinich very much, and insofar as they bring up issues and carry out an educational and organisational function – that’s important, and fine, and I support it.

A lot of the jewelry that I wear are fan gifts because they’re so awesome and they give me great presents.

The more I see of deer, the more I admire them as mountaineers. They make their way into the heart of the roughest solitudes with smooth reserve of strength, through dense belts of brush and forest encumbered with fallen trees and boulder piles, across canons, roaring streams, and snow-fields, ever showing forth beauty and courage.

The most important thing I can tell you about aging is this: If you really feel that you want to have an off-the-shoulder blouse and some big beads and thong sandals and a dirndl skirt and a magnolia in your hair, do it. Even if you’re wrinkled.

Clothing & fashion are kind of my security blanket, almost.

Fashion is very important. It is life-enhancing and, like everything that gives pleasure, it is worth doing well.

If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world.

We know but a few men, a great many coats and breeches.

The concept of commercialism in the fashion and art world is looked down upon. You know, just to think, ‚What amount of creativity does it take to make something that masses of people like?‘ And, ‚How does creativity apply across the board?‘

I don’t feel very comfortable defending my fashion except to say that people don’t have to buy it. You do have to consume. You have to live. If you’ve got the money to be able to afford it, then it’s really good to buy something from me, but don’t buy too much.

We based the look on rock ‚n roll right from the beginning.

Elegance is not the prerogative of those who have just escaped from adolescence, but of those who have already taken possession of their future.

Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.

I love wisdom. And you can never be great at anything unless you love it. Not be in love with it, but love the thing, admire the thing. And it seems that if you love the thing, and you don’t just want to possess it, it will find you.

I cap myself when I shop; I don’t like to spend extravagant amounts on clothes. But, I do get lent clothes for events, it’s scary to wear something so expensive, but I feel really pampered.

I think any man who lets a woman pick what he should wear… I mean, you gotta draw the line somewhere as a man. I see these guys, ‚My wife told me to wear this!‘ And I just shake my head.

I wear a hat on stage so that people won’t be blinded by the reflection from my head. Also, if I don’t wear a hat, there’s no way that the hat can be at that level by itself on the stage.

The generous Critic fann’d the Poet’s fire, And taught the world with reason to admire.

By ancestry, I was born to rule.

The importance of logo into today’s fashion is un! be! Lievable!

When you go to the mountains, you see them and you admire them. In a sense, they give you a challenge, and you try to express that challenge by climbing them.

I wish I could make music about politics. I feel like it’s such an art and a talent that I admire tremendously, but when I step into the studio, I step out of the real world, and it’s therapeutic.

I have no idols. I admire work, dedication and competence.

The fashion of the world is to avoid cost, and you encounter it.

Fashion breaks my heart.

Doing collections, doing fashion is like a non-stop dialogue.

Even as a kid, I wore J.C. Penney plain-pocket jeans because they were plain pockets. I didn’t want anybody’s name on my backside. I personally don’t like to wear clothing that is named for somebody or has someone’s likeness all over it.

Fashion is an imposition, a reign on freedom.

Music is part of the life of fashion, too.

Therefore I am sure that this, my Coronation, is not the symbol of a power and a splendor that are gone but a declaration of our hopes for the future, and for the years I may, by God’s Grace and Mercy, be given to reign and serve you as your Queen.

There is an innocence in admiration; it is found in those to whom it has never yet occurred that they, too, might be admired some day.

I very rarely watch my own fashion shows, but the makeup for my Fall 2011 show was just brilliant.

During my first years in the Sierra, I was ever calling on everybody within reach to admire them, but I found no one half warm enough until Emerson came. I had read his essays, and felt sure that of all men he would best interpret the sayings of these noble mountains and trees. Nor was my faith weakened when I met him in Yosemite.

I’m not big on flak jackets and tie-dyed shirts. You know, that’s not me.

What do I wear in bed? Why, Chanel No. 5, of course.

I love dresses, and I’ve definitely thought about designing them someday. I just want to make sure that I wait until the time is perfect and I can do it right.

It is only an auctioneer who can equally and impartially admire all schools of art.

Britishness is just a way of putting things together and a certain don’t care attitude about clothes. You don’t care, you just do it and it looks great.
