My dream, maybe because of my family, of course, was to be a painter. I chose in one moment the direction of textiles from textiles I went to fashion.

To try and change opinion by law is worse than futile.

George Earle Buckle

A man has no religion who has not slowly and painfully gathered one together, adding to it, shaping it; and one's religion is never complete and final, it seems, but must always be undergoing modification.

D. H. (David Herbert) Lawrence

All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him.

Gautama Buddha

Black as the devil, hot as hell, pure as an angel, sweet as love.

Charles Maurice de Talleyrand

Be extremely subtle, even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious, even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the opponent's fate.

Sun Tzu

The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.

Walt Disney

Be wise as a serpent and wary as a dove!

Mark Twain

I didn't know this about myself, but when 'Pirates of the Caribbean' came out I realised that I didn't enjoy a huge amount of recognition. I didn't react to it well, but I think life is about finding out who you are and what you like. So I started doing independent movies and art-house films instead.

Keira Knightley

Pray, and let God worry.

Martin Luther

The more you get into any religion, it becomes the same. It really becomes how you treat other people and how you get outside yourself. How you look to help other people, and how you get out of this 'I, me, mine' type of thing.

Abel Ferrara

In time of danger it is proper to be alarmed until danger be near at hand; but when we perceive that danger is near, we should oppose it as if we were not afraid.

Hitopadesa

The difference between a saint and a hypocrite is that one lies for his religion, the other by it.
