Uggs can be as chic as heels for women.
Russia is a place of great culture. If you've read Tolstoy's "War and Peace", Dostoyevsky, Pushkin, Chekhov...the culture of the great Russian literature is amazing. The human narrative you get out of "War and Peace" is universal.
Waiting in line for something mundane is very boring. Waiting for my doctor to see me and waiting for my dentist to see me, yes, that is boring.
First Ladies have always been held like specimens under a media microscope.
Snooki and Honey Boo Boo. These are big celebrities in the U.S. You want to throw up.
It's incorrect to assume you can be a fashion editor because you blog, if you don't have experience to look at fashion in a professional way.
In my day you didn't speak until spoken to.
I don't understand the world of the Internet. I just type up on my computer.
I think it's important that models be healthy.
I love Russian culture. I don't know the young Russia, I'm not at all familiar with young Russia, but the old school Russia is good enough for me for the moment.
People have always been fascinated by people in the public eye and what they wear, what they are doing, but not in a tabloid way. Tabloid celebrities are a turnoff. A lot of celebrities...you wonder why they are celebrities.

Reality TV, although I'm a part of it, I think reality TV is a terrible thing.
The late Estee Lauder says you can never wear white shoes after Labor Day. But of course, in today's world, that does not exist.
The happiest moments of my childhood were spent on my grandmother's front porch in Durham, N.C., or at her sister's farmhouse in Orange County, where chickens paraded outside the kitchen's screen door and hams were cured in the smokehouse.
Look at 'American Idol,' which I don't look at. Those winners haven't become household names except for Jennifer Hudson, and she was a reject. You can't aim to be a household name. You just have to be successful.

It's always great to have things from France at a wedding. It's symbolic of style, of culture, of taste.
One my favorite things is to go to the provinces of Russia and see the 18th century wood churches with the onion dome architecture. These humble wonders of incredible imagination of architects that were obviously not living in places like Paris or London, but they've created these amazing churches.

I only watch MSNBC for the news.
Fashion illustrator Antonio Lopez was a major part of my early career.
