Every time that I wanted to give up, if I saw an interesting textile, print what ever, suddenly I would see a collection.
My muse changes all the time because I think every designer is a bit of a muse for themselves in a way - they just don't want to say it.
My action follows my characters. If a character is a cop, you cannot be posing all the time, you cannot fly off the roof because it doesn't make any sense - it's not practical.
The real composer thinks about his work the whole time; he is not always conscious of this, but he is aware of it later when he suddenly knows what he will do.
Every time I write something down I check it to see if it has that telltale glow, the glow that tells me there's something there. If it glows, it stays. Everything is either on or off.
Everyone's projecting onto you, or you feel like everyone is judging you. I feel like I'm being judged a lot of the time. You become really self-conscious.
I was watching TV and saw people with masks, weapons, and grenades. I thought, Is that really possible? Could we be here yet again? And go into civil war one more time?
I had my daughter, and with that came a deep sense of responsibility; my time for work had become precious, and it had to have more meaning.
I took the rhythm place, which a lot of people didn't know how to do the way I could, and this was really the first time that Johnny had a rhythm guitar player.
Certain people who care about me a lot have said 'You don't play the game, and if you don't play the game, you don't get picked for the team all the time.
I disapprove of lots of decisions made by George Bush: the war, the meddling in the affairs of other countries, the conversations with dictators; it was a dark time.
If you ever want to get the facts straight about me or the Batman, please write to the original source, myself, for the truth, instead of second guessing.
In 2008 we came perilously close to killing money, exposing in the process how out of date money's infrastructure has become.
When I designed my first house in L.A., I didn't have any money - I did it all on my own. I liked that.
But, having a perfume and license, in general, is a financial necessity. A designer must, to reap back the money spent on prototypes and all that sort of thing.

The easiest way to stop piracy is not by putting antipiracy technology to work. It's by giving those people a service that's better than what they're receiving from the pirates.
Only love interests me, and I am only in contact with things that revolve around love.
I was not that pretty a girl and I was never pursued as a teenager or young woman, so I was used to having no shame and trying to get people to love me.
I love a woman, I love to judge how beautiful she is, how beautiful I can make her.
I love women in all their different incarnations. My friends are practically all women. They are much more intelligent than men.
