“If you really love someone and care about him, you can survive many difficulties.”

I don’t think about my fame very much.

I personally would not have plastic surgery. What the hell for? It looks ridiculous.

Nothing earth-shattering has happened in men’s fashion. How much can you do with men’s clothes?

I certainly feel that an adult woman has a right to determine what happens to her life and body.

People have told me about organized crime in the fashion industry, but I can’t talk about that. I’m looking to stay alive.

The best thing is to look natural, but it takes makeup to look natural.

Anyone who is secure about herself shouldn’t be threatened by the ads I do.

I won’t allow myself to have tremendous fear.

I don’t dwell on success. Maybe that’s one reason I’m successful.

I guess I don’t have a proper perspective on my fame; if I did, I don’t think I’d like it.

AIDS is an absolutely tragic disease. The argument about AIDS’ being some kind of divine retribution is crap.

I’ve been strong and determined all my life about many things I’ve wanted.

I’m crazy, and I don’t pretend to be anything else.

There’s an awareness of fashion in this country, and it’s not limited to gay people.

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

I don’t trust a lot of journalists.

I don’t care what people think about me. Never did, never will. Life is too short to be worrying about that shit.

People love you when you’re successful, but if you’re not, who really cares about you?

Without despair, we will share, and the joys of caring will not be erased. What has been, must never end, the joys of caring will not be replace.

I am happy to see that, increasingly, people care about farm workers. There is tremendous interest in where and how our food is grown.

When you’re putting good stuff into your body, you feel so much better.

Give me the right people and I don’t much care what organization you give me. Good things will happen. Give me the wrong people and it doesn’t matter what you do with the organization. Bad things will happen.

Knowing you’ve got my back is everything. When we were sleeping till noon and binge watching scrubs. I never could understand the complexity of the future.

We’re living or dying. We’re already dead, the living dead. So do what you gotta do. Take care of your family, of yourself as a whole, and everything will be alright.
