More From Tony Hawk

I consider skateboarding an art form, a lifestyle and a sport. 'action sport' would be the least offensive categorization.

The only lifestyle i'm promoting is the lifestyle of love and friendship. the lifestyle of music, and joy, and fashion. so whoever wants to come and get part of that lifestyle, we accept anybody.

Skateboarding is not a hobby. and it is not a sport. skateboarding is a way of learning how to redefine the world around you. for most people, when they saw a swimming pool, they thought, ‘let's take a swim.' but i thought, ‘let's ride it.' when they saw the curb or a street, they would think about driving on it. i would think about the texture. i slowly developed the ability to look at the world through totally different means.

There are many more important things in life than fashion. but fashion, to me, is part of pop culture. and i'm an art collector. i'm obsessed with art and pop culture. and i say that there is fame, fashion, art, music and entertainment, including celebrity, that really moves the needle in society.

I don't really believe in political art. i feel in my heart the purpose of art transcends cultural and class and politics. i think something like the sistine chapel is something that goes beyond just being a christian thing. it transcends its christianity and becomes sort of a universal beauty. and i think that's true of music and art and literature.

I think the music comes first, then comes the fashion, and thus, the lifestyle. i believe it starts with music, and then the person delivering it delivers the lifestyle, the fashion. madonna is a great example of that.

Similar Quotes

But men may construe things after their fashion, clean from the purpose of the things themselves.

I think fashion is like putting on armor. i like that aspect of it, but it's not something i want to think about every day.

I always find beauty in things that are odd and imperfect - they are much more interesting.

Beauty in this iron age must turn, from fluid living rainbow shapes to torn, and sootened fragments, ashes in an urn, on whose gray surface runes are traced by a norn, who hopes to wake the future to arise, in phoenix-fashion, and to shine with rays, to blast the sight of modern men whose dyes, of selfishness and lust have stained our days...
