There's always some kind of hidden logic.

There's always some kind of hidden logic.

The idea of seeing everybody clad the same is not really my cup of tea.

French design hardly exists, except as artificial modernism.

There are days when I'm completely depressed and able to do only one drawing.

I translated Beatles songs for my English class.

But the Milanese have made bad choices, bad fashion, and bad jewelry.

I'd experienced the '40s and '50s by looking at my grandparents' old clothes, books, and magazines.

The notion of time bothers me. You look at thirty-year-old photographs and realize how the time has passed.

They say that the best furniture and clothing design from the '50s and '60s is Scandinavian or Milanese.

In Italy, the Milanese are well organized but follow bourgeois taste. They adhere to certain codes of elegance, but not to individualism.

We all look for lost time.

Going out in Paris was like going out in the '30s dressed like the Andrews Sisters. It was everything I'd seen in books at my grandparents' house, only it was our generation.

Italy is a divided country without a center.

Fashion needs to be worn.

For me, I am still very happy to be able to do stage design as it's an opportunity to express the extreme.

I am always anxious to know what has happened while I've been asleep.

I am not nostalgic for the past.

I am still in love with couture because it is just two months from drawing pad to runway so everything on the catwalk is hot from the oven.

I look for friends who make me laugh.

I never loved the world around me as it was.

If I was a fashion designer just following trends or designing for celebrities, I would not be fulfilled.

If you look back at the history of creativity in clothes - the French Revolution, the First World War and the Second World War - they have all been creative reinventions, the moment new forms of luxury come into play.

People want to be in their own fashion tribes, so they want to wear the same clothes to be connected to everyone else in that tribe. But they want to be different from other tribes.

Perhaps I shouldn't have been influenced by the idea that my name could be spread across the entire world.

Since I was a child I've loved going to the opera, theatre and ballet.

The world needs some excitement from fashion.

Very skinny women don't look beautiful in clothes.

Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.

I think part of the appeal of mathematical logic is that the formulas look mysterious - You write backward Es!

The logic of validation allows us to move between the two limits of dogmatism and skepticism.

Logic is like the sword - those who appeal to it, shall perish by it.

Logic, like whiskey, loses its beneficial effect when taken in too large quantities.

It may be that everything the life science companies are telling us will turn out to be right, and there's no problem here whatsoever. That defies logic.

Fear is a disease that eats away at logic and makes man inhuman.

Logic works, metaphysics contemplates.

The logic of words should yield to the logic of realities.

It's clear that people are going to download media files, and they're going to talk to each other, and they're going to exchange information and knowledge and so forth. So this system logic is basically what you bounce off of.

In formal logic, a contradiction is the signal of defeat, but in the evolution of real knowledge it marks the first step in progress toward a victory.

One of the things I particularly enjoyed doing was taking raw sound from locations during the film, like the candy machine, and writing pieces of music to go with them, which is totally unnecessary within the context of the film, because they have their own logic.

Much of my work in this period was concerned with exploring the logic of economic models, but also with attempting to reconcile the models with every day observation.

Religion is love; in no case is it logic.

The want of logic annoys. Too much logic bores. Life eludes logic, and everything that logic alone constructs remains artificial and forced.

Companies are not charitable enterprises: They hire workers to make profits. In the United States, this logic still works. In Europe, it hardly does.

I don't see the logic of rejecting data just because they seem incredible.

In our story logic which we're making up, if we're saying he's alive, then like a quadriplegic who's in bed he can move his head and shoulders, but he can't move his arms. If he could just turn on that power to his legs and arms, the nerves could get through and he could walk.

The logic of the heart is absurd.

Logic, sometimes has very little to do with political action.

I read one or two other books which gave me a background in mathematics other than logic.
