“Commercials capture your attention, that’s all.”

Women’s Wear Daily can do more than any other publication to establish a designer.

I don’t trust a lot of journalists.

I’m a sexual person, and that’s reflected in my clothes and my advertisements.

People in their 70s can still have incredible lives. Health is the most important thing.

We’re not doing outrageous fashion; I make sports clothes that are relatively conservative, clothes that everyone wears.

I still drink vodka; I’m not an advocate of drinking, but I’m no angel. I don’t like grass, because it just makes me hungry.

People read things into my commercials that don’t even exist.

I love women. I’m trying to do beautiful things with them. I’m not trying to insult them. My life is not about that.

The only way to advertise is by not focusing on the product.

I’m not trying to be Mr. Universe, but I want to stay in shape.

When I get into bed at night, I hope I don’t get into it alone!

My wardrobe consists of antique clothes, many of my designs, plus shoes and shirts from Brooks Brothers and Paul Stuart.

Starbucks is not an advertiser; people think we are a great marketing company, but in fact we spend very little money on marketing and more money on training our people than advertising.

I understand that I have a certain look that can be used to my advantage. I know the power of that when I walk into a room and talk to people, and I can use it as an advertising tool. Now I am actually selling me, my face, my thoughts. So I am my guy.

For me, ‘Diamond Necklace’ is a commercial attempt, as it has songs and glamour.

If advertisers spent the same amount of money on improving their products as they do on advertising then they wouldn’t have to advertise them.

Advertising is the art of convincing people to spend money they don’t have for something they don’t need.

Shooting gun is so much more fun than shooting ads

Sooner or later we all discover that the important moments in life are not the advertised ones, not the birthdays, the graduations, the weddings, not the great goals achieved.

Legalize it, and I will advertise it.
