We all know of course, that we should never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever fiddle around in any way with electrical equipment. never.

Hamlet [...] we fat all creatures else to fat us, and we fat ourselves for maggots. your fat king and your lean beggar is but variable service, two dishes, but to one table; that's the end. claudius alas, alas. hamlet a man may fish with the worm that hath eat of a king, and eat of the fish that hath fed of that worm. claudius what dost thou mean by this? hamlet nothing but to show you how a king may go a progress through the guts of a beggar.

[david lean's] images stay with me forever. but what makes them memorable isn't necessarily their beauty. that's just good photography. it's the emotion behind those images that's meant the most to me over the years. it's the way david lean can put feeling on film. the way he shows a whole landscape of the spirit. for me, that's the real geography of david lean country. and that's why, in a david lean movie, there's no such thing as an empty landscape.

Fat is a barrier, a bellicose statement to others that, to some, justifies hostility in kind. the world says to the fat person, "your fatness is an affront to me, so we have the right to treat you as offensively as you appear." fat is not merely viewed as another type of tissue, but as a diagnostic sign, a personal statement, and a measure of personality. too little fat and we see you as being antisocial, fearful and sexless. too much fat and we see you as slothful, stupid, and sexually hung up.

From woman, man is born; within woman, man is conceived; to woman he is engaged and married. woman becomes his friend; through woman, the future generations come. when his woman dies, he seeks another woman; to woman he is bound. so why call her bad? from her, kings are born. from woman, woman is born; without woman, there would be no one at all.

What's important to a fashion designer? it's much more than learning how to make clothes. in fact, that merely makes you a dressmaker. it doesn't make you into a fashion designer.

Every new fashion is a form of rebellion.

For me, fashion is an expression of who i am right in that moment - so what you're seeing is what i'm influenced by now.

Just like zillions of children, album covers educated and informed me, and certainly did i later transpose organically, rather than by intent, those principles both in fashion design and photography.

If we're having a glitzy over-the-top moment, fashion is very glitzy and over-the-top, you know, over-the-top. if we're having a moment where things are, you know, we're in a recession, fashion becomes quiet. so, in terms of popular culture, fashion and especially women's fashion is incredibly interesting, aside from satisfying just a particular need to create and arrange things in a way that one sees as beautiful. and so, in a certain way, it's fulfilling. in another way, it's very fleeting because it doesn't last very long. you know, a beautiful moment in fashion goes away very quickly.
