A Quote by Yohji Yamamoto

Adidas is a very personal inspiration to me. It has enriched my creative life. It's an exchange between different cultures, different ideas, and most of all, it is teamwork.
Sport is the biggest part of my life. It has allowed me to meet different people from various cultures and background and has greatly enriched my life.
In many ways, Mitt Romney and I are very different. Different starts in life. Different paths to leadership. Different cultures.
I love getting to have different food and getting to be around different people and different cultures and different ways people look at life. It's really kind of helped me open up my mind and see the world from different perspectives.
I grew up in the States, but I go back to Brazil quite often, and a big part of me is very Brazilian, so there's a constant struggle between the two cultures within me. They're very different approaches to life.
Innovation comes ultimately from a diversity of perspectives. So when you combine ideas from different industries or different cultures, that's when you have the best sense of developing groundbreaking ideas.
The exchange between different cultures can not possibly be seen as a threat, when it is friendly. But I believe that the dissatisfaction with the overall architecture often depends on the quality of leadership.
The most beautiful part is the traveling, and getting to know different cultures and different types of people and to perform in very, very important venues in each country.
We've had so many lifetimes of different cultures and different religions and different points of view and different wars and different loves and different children.

I grew up having two different perspectives - one in English, one in Spanish. Two different cultures, very different - but I think that, to me, it's one. I'm just as American as I feel Latin.
I'm a man that's unique to the world. That's kind of the star I was born under - on the cusp of Capricorn and Aquarius. My mother is Irish-American, and my father is Afro-Panamanian, so it's kind of been the story of my life to be a bridge between different cultures and different styles, and musically, that's between jazz and R&B.
It's important to be a global citizen at the same time and appreciate different cultures and different people and different ways of life.
I think that every country presents its own particular challenges, different cultures, different histories, different religions, different people. And different ethnic make-ups in those countries present different challenges.
What we really need to be open to is diversity itself, especially in a business environment.

Traveling and other cultures provide me with great inspiration, especially unusual people and cultures totally unlike my own. They generate many new ideas for me.
I am very, very proud I am also Turkish and both of my parents are from Turkey. I was born in Germany and grew up there.

I am very, very thankful I was able to pick the best from many cultures.
