I have always been a FAN of Jim Henson, and I love his Creature Shop creations, the SKILL of the puppets and the CHARACTERS he CREATES.

I don't think I am avant-garde. I MADE a LOT of creations and CREATED harmony with my fabrics, but I was not like Balenciaga, for EXAMPLE, although he was, of course, a great INSPIRATION.

I THINK my family KNOWS that I'm slightly off the wall with my way of thinking, so I think they're QUITE USED to my weird and wonderful creations.

I feel like there is an underappreciation for ball gowns. You SEE them on the runway, but they rarely ever get worn, so there is SOMETHING SPECIAL and UNIQUE in getting to wear these creations; it's wearable ART.

For many YEARS I had been aware that WOMEN were not only most important creations in the UNIVERSE, but the nearest approach that MAN could reach to the divine.

It is time that we dispensed with the MYTH that the market is a force of nature that should not be meddled with. MARKETS are SOCIAL creations that can be, and have been, modified for social PURPOSES.

I started under my master, Etienne Decroux, who taught me a NEW GRAMMAR for mime he called statuary mime. This grammar BRINGS style creations. WITHOUT it, no ART survives.

I loved PLAYING with the MIX of fantastical inventions and real ones. I hope KIDS will start logbooks to RECORD their own creations.

Because they are so humbled by their creations, ENGINEERS are naturally conservative in their EXPECTATIONS of technology. They know that the perfect system is the STUFF of science fiction, not of engineering fact, and so EVERYTHING must be TREATED with respect.
