I am a sort of vampire, taking the blood of other people.
For me, New York is comfortable, not strange.
We create a product nobody needs but people want. You spend more for what you really want. Some boring things you need: an ugly old car can wait, but if you have a new fashion item it cannot wait. We live on this whole idea.
Don't use your film for ugly purpose.
I love dogs, but dogs, you have to be in the country with dogs. I cannot walk a dog on the street.
The discussion of fur is childish.
Children are the last thing I want. I hate all children. For other people, it's fine, but not for me. I was born not to be a family person.
Sometimes the best ideas I have are in my bathtub or in my bed or in my dreams early in the morning before waking up ... I'm like a TV antennae, I catch it all and do it my way.
I'm always busy. You know, the more I do, the more ideas I have—that's the funny thing. The brain is a muscle, and I'm a kind of body builder.
Beauty is also submitted to the taste of time...

Some people would like me to be round again.
