I feel best in soft and natural materials such as cotton and silk. I wear collections from all designers. They all have outstanding cuts and extremely pleasant materials.

Laetitia Casta

I'm just saying that there are high quality materials, and when we change them then there should be a way of changing them so that you can celebrate that change - rather than just 'mix it up'.

Richard Rogers

Architects create spaces that accommodate human activity. As opposed to many of its contemporary counterparts, Dune'is not so much focused on the styling of that activity, as on the supporting of it.

Magnus Larsson

Young children learn in a different manner from that of older children and adults, yet we can teach them many things if we adapt our materials and mode of instruction to their level of ability. But we miseducate young children when we assume that their learning abilities are comparable to those of older children and that they can be taught with materials and with the same instructional procedures appropriate to school-age children.

David Elkind

It's refreshing when plus-size styling is exciting and pushes boundaries rather than safe and boring.

Philomena Kwao

National diplomacy strategies are usually focused on promoting one's interests against others' interests. By emphasizing the global 'we' rather than the national 'I' in the climate change debate, COP 21 proved to be a case in point for a change of lenses.

Jens Martin Skibsted

We should tell more young designers not to worry about what they're going to do with their design careers. They should start their own brands. Designers should create their own beautiful brands that can change the world.

Recycling is more expensive for communities than it needs to be, partly because traditional recycling tries to force materials into more lifetimes than they are designed for - a complicated and messy conversion, and one that itself expends energy and resources. Very few objects of modern consumption were designed with recycling in mind. If the process is truly to save money and materials, products must be designed from the very beginning to be recycled or even "upcycled" - a term we use to describe the return to industrial systems of materials with improved, rather than degraded, quality.

William McDonough

The goal of an effective leader is to recondition your team to be solution focused rather than problem focused.

Jim Rohn

I've made many, many, many large wigs in my career, and I've experimented with lots of materials to make them more fun and interesting and as big as possible. I like to use the lightest wig materials that I can.

Chris March

I've known you for years. Everyone says you were beautiful when you were young, but I want to tell you I think you're more beautiful now than then. Rather than your face as a young woman, I prefer your face as it is now. Ravaged.

Marguerite Duras

You don't need money to look fabulous. There are so many awesome new designers, so many designers doing collections for mass retailers.

Stacy London

My computer is a very complex gadget and it was designed by many designers, so why must the universe have only a single designer and not many designers?

Richard Dawkins

If you hurt your knee, honestly, I'd rather have the federal government focused on North Korea, focused on other things than your knee, OK, or than your back, as important as your back is. I would much rather see the federal government focused on other things, bigger things.
