“I like Adele, Mika, Natacha Atlas and a beautiful old record, 'An Even...” — Christian Louboutin Quote

I like Adele, Mika, Natacha Atlas and a beautiful old record, 'An Evening with Belafonte/Mouskouri,' starring Harry Belafonte and Nana Mouskouri. What they have in common is they all have incredible voices. I am very much into voices. I would say I'm a fan of voices, not of sound. I'm a fan of singers, not of bands.

To me, the word 'decadent' is so difficult to use; it's a very sensitive word, in a way.

When I'm drawing, I'm drawing with the light, being completely open and creative. I can't draw in the evening. I need light and I need warmth if it is a summer thing, and I need cold if it is a winter collection. The good thing is that I have houses to go to whenever I'm working. I draw according to the place.

When a woman puts on a heel, she has a different posture, a different attitude. She really stands up and has a consciousness of her body.

'Atlas Shrugged,' let's face it, was probably the most important novel of the 20th century that was never a film.

I would read the atlas for pleasure. I knew it was weird. It was weird.

My sister and I had a tough childhood, but my mom always said that travelling is the most beautiful thing you can do in your life. She always showed us the globe and gifted me an atlas.

ArcGIS includes a Living Atlas of the World. It's like a large living library of geographic information.

Oh, I was a big Tony Atlas fan. I think I tried to throw my first dropkick because of Tony - and almost broke my shoulder.
