"A man should never wear shorts in the city. Flip-flops and shorts in the city are never appropriate. Shorts should only be worn on the tennis court or on the beach."
"Real fashion change comes from real changes in real life. Everything else is just decoration."
"I am not a person who is about reality. I am about enhanced reality."
"Style is very different from fashion. Once you find something that works, keep it."
"Choose your team carefully. So much of your success is due to the people who you surround yourself with. Your friends, your family, and the people that you work with -- they all play an important role in inspiring you and supporting you and giving you stability. These are the people in your life who will be honest with you."
