The connection between dress and war is not far to seek; your finest clothes are those you wear as soldiers.

When the rich wage war, it’s the poor who die.

I don’t feel comfortable defending my clothes. But if you’ve got the money to afford them, then buy something from me. Just don’t buy too much.

Dressing up is a bore. At a certain age, you decorate yourself to attract the opposite sex, and at a certain age, I did that. But I’m past that age.

I go to all these photo shoots, and each time I figure out something new about myself and what I want to wear.

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.

Lots of people who complained about us receiving the MBE received theirs for heroism in the war – for killing people. We received ours for entertaining other people. I’d say we deserve ours more.

Fashion is merely an opinion. And I’ve got a lot of opinions.

I wear the national dress because it is the most natural and the most becoming for an Indian.

A deep sense of love and belonging is an irreducible need of all people. We are biologically, cognitively, physically, and spiritually wired to love, to be loved, and to belong. When those needs are not met, we don’t function as we were meant to. We break. We fall apart. We numb. We ache. We hurt others. We get sick.

I come from – I came from Wales, and it’s a strong, butch society. We were in the war and all that. People didn’t waste time feeling sorry for themselves. You had to get on with it. So my credo is get on with it. I don’t waste time being soft. I’m not cold, but I don’t like being, wasting my time with – life’s too short.

War is not an exercise of the will directed at an inanimate matter.

Bravery never goes out of fashion.

What is absurd and monstrous about war is that men who have no personal quarrel should be trained to murder one another in cold blood.

Any man may be in good spirits and good temper when he’s well dressed. There ain’t much credit in that.

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.

Strong emotions such as passion and bliss are indications that you’re connected to Spirit, or ‚inspired,‘ if you will. When you’re inspired, you activate dormant forces, and the abundance you seek in any form comes streaming into your life.

There is so much that must be done in a civilized barbarism like war.

Fashion is one thing, but style is another.

The weather and my mood have little connection. I have my foggy and my fine days within me; my prosperity or misfortune has little to do with the matter.

I was born during the war and grew up in a time of rationing. We didn’t have anything. It’s influenced the way I look at the world.

A man who says that no patriot should attack the war until it is over… is saying no good son should warn his mother of a cliff until she has fallen.

There is not so variable a thing in nature as a lady’s head-dress.

I buy expensive suits. They just look cheap on me.

Through fidelity, we situate ourselves and maintain ourselves in the hands of God so exactly as to become one with them in their action.

Impart as much as you can of your spiritual being to those who are on the road with you, and accept as something precious what comes back to you from them.

For me, bomber jackets are smart, but they are also street and have a lot of attitude.

My readers – and I get 400 emails for a day, my readers normally they say, well, you understand me, and I answer, you do understand me also. We are in the same level.

T-shirts for ten dollars are even more fashion today than expensive fashion.

It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.

Ever notice how irons have a setting for permanent press? I don’t get it.

I venture to say no war can be long carried on against the will of the people.

It is an unfortunate fact that we can secure peace only by preparing for war.

Be careless in your dress if you must, but keep a tidy soul.

Vulnerability is the birthplace of connection and the path to the feeling of worthiness. If it doesn’t feel vulnerable, the sharing is probably not constructive.

I’m very disappointed in Obama. I was very much in support of him in the beginning, but I cannot support war. I cannot support droning. I cannot support capitulating to the banks.

I think I have something tonight that’s not quite correct for evening wear. Blue suede shoes.

Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society.

Strike against war, for without you no battles can be fought!

The only excuse for war is that we may live in peace unharmed.

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

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

It is always better to be slightly underdressed.

I don’t care how many beauty treatments you have, I don’t care which bag you’re carrying – you have to have a dress.

When I first went to places where people were suffering from war and persecution, I felt ashamed of my feelings of sadness. I could see more possibilities in my life.

When you’re 25 or 30, you know, you can’t wear lime-green eye shadow anymore.

Don’t just eat McDonald’s, get something a bit better. Eat a salad. That’s what fashion is. It’s something that is a bit better.

For small creatures such as we the vastness is bearable only through love.

When you stop caring what people think, you lose your capacity for connection. When you’re defined by it, you lose our capacity for vulnerability.

Blessed is the influence of one true, loving human soul on another.

War is the province of danger.

War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.

Fashion fades, only style remains the same.

There is no glory in battle worth the blood it costs.

Clothes if they are not well cut, you can kill nobody. A building poorly built can kill people. It’s a much more difficult work. I would not compare myself with that.

Communism has never come to power in a country that was not disrupted by war or corruption, or both.

Probably the battle of Waterloo was won on the playing-fields of Eton, but the opening battles of all subsequent wars have been lost there.

I believe in love at first sight. You want that connection, and then you want some problems.

If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.

It never mattered to me that people in school didn’t think that country music was cool, and they made fun of me for it – though it did matter to me that I was not wearing the clothes that everybody was wearing at that moment. But at some point, I was just like, ‚I like wearing sundresses and cowboy boots.‘

It is easy to say how we love new friends, and what we think of them, but words can never trace out all the fibers that knit us to the old.
