“I didn't want to be thirtysomething and not know what I was going to do. I was quite afraid of that, there were quite a lot of aimless kids around, in that 'other' side of my life, who didn't really know what to do because they always had a bank balance to fall back on and they were quite lost.”

“I've had people say to me, 'You'll never sell handbags. You don't work with leather, and leather is luxury.'

For me, it doesn't have a luxury element to it.”

“For me, singing is the most natural thing in the world. I've grown up with it and I know I've got that gift.”

“Mum was a big style icon for me: her natural sexiness and natural confidence.”

“Painting keeps me occupied in those moments when travel can be aimless and even disorienting. Mainly it is a way to register at least some of the new impressions of a foreign place, when its thrilling barrage can sometimes overwhelm you.”

“We, at one point, had such great villains with shades of grey and a compelling story around them. But Bollywood did see a decline when villains were nothing but aimless goons who had no real purpose to them.”

“If we would only give, just once, the same amount of reflection to what we want to get out of life that we give to the question of what to do with a two weeks' vacation, we would be startled at our false standards and the aimless procession of our busy days.”
