You should be having more fun in high school, exploring things because you want to explore them and learning because you love learning-not worrying about competition.
Some of my favorite pieces are from thrift shops. When I find something I really love, I live, work and sleep in it.
I think women realise that I love women, and very often women seem to love me.
Twenty can't be expected to tolerate sixty in all things, and sixty gets bored stiff with twenty's eternal love affairs.
No longer shall I paint interiors with men reading and women knitting. I will paint living people who breathe and feel and suffer and love.
I love you more than my own skin.
You study, you learn, but you guard the original naivete. It has to be within you, as desire for drink is within the drunkard or love is within the lover.
I do look at fashion, and I love going to Opening Ceremony and seeing what they have. Seeing what Jeremy Scott is doing. And this designer Bernhard Wilhelm. Proenza Schouler.
In the first Spider-Man, at the end of the movie, Peter Parker had to deny himself a relationship with a girl that he's in love with. The very next thing that happens is that he's swinging through the city.
I'll never stop wandering. And when the time comes to die, I'll find the wildest, loneliest, most desolate spot there is.
If I hadn't been a designer, I'd have been a painter. I began as a painter and learned the craft of pottery in order to support myself.
I never wanted to do something grotesque. I never wanted to shock. I wanted my audience to be happy, to be kind.
I'm hoping to make a new thing for the world that remains in the mind like a new species of living thing.
If I knew where I was going, I wouldn't do it. When I can predict or plan it, I don't do it.
My father probably - he had flashes of creativity - he used to do store windows for fruit stores that he worked in and stuff.
The industrial part of Detroit is really the most interesting side, otherwise it’s like the rest of the United States, ugly and stupid.
I kind of have a Victorian sensibility - I don't understand stuff until I can classify it and name it.
I don't like things that can be reproduced. Wood isn't important in itself but rather in the fact that objects made in it are unique, simple, unpretentious.
I have never seen either angels or goddesses, so I am not interested in painting them.
I wanted to give a woman comfortable clothes that would flow with her body. A woman is closest to being naked when she is well-dressed.
A beautiful dress may look beautiful on a hanger, but that means nothing. It must be seen on the shoulders, with the movement of the arms, the legs, and the waist.
