With fashion, you really need to understand the aspects of construction. Not just design on an iPad.

It is not, truly speaking, the labor that is divided; but the men: divided into mere segments of men --broken into small fragments and crumbs of life, so that all the little piece of intelligence that is left in a man is not enough to make a pin, or a nail, but exhausts itself in making the point of a pin or the head of a nail.

John Ruskin

Be curious, not judgmental.

Walt Whitman

Nothing that was worthy in the past departs no truth or goodness realized by man ever dies, or can die.

Thomas Carlyle

Sweat equity is the most valuable equity there is. Know your business and industry better than anyone else in the world. Love what you do or don't do it.

Mark Cuban

Success turns a lot of people off. I have a pretty solid sense of joy and respect that irritates people, and can irritate me, too.

Dave Matthews

I cannot conceive how any man can have brought himself to that pitch of presumption, to consider his country as nothing but carte blanche, upon which he may scribble whatever he pleases.

Edmund Burke

I have a neuroscience background - that's what my doctorate is in - and I was trained to study hormones of attachment, so I definitely feel my parenting is informed by that.

Mayim Bialik

It is amazing that something I did 23 years ago still has an audience that people respond to and I am touched and surprised that people are still very positive about.

Gil Gerard

Every man, wherever he goes, is encompassed by a cloud of comforting convictions which move with him like flies on a summer day

Bertrand Russell

You can't live your life blaming your failures on your parents and what they did or didn't do for you. You're dealt the cards that you're dealt. I realised it was a waste of time to be angry at my parents and feel sorry for myself.

Drew Barrymore

For nothing is fixed, forever and forever and forever, it is not fixed; the earth is always shifting, the light is always changing, the sea does not cease to grind down rock. Generations do not cease to be born, and we are responsible to them because we are the only witnesses they have. The sea rises, the light fails, lovers cling to each other, and children cling to us. The moment we cease to hold each other, the sea engulfs us and the light goes out.

James Baldwin

The illiterate of the future will not be the person who cannot read. It will be the person who does not know how to learn.

Alvin Toffler
