“Clarity is the most important thing. I can compare clarity to pruning ...” — Diane von Furstenberg Quote

“Clarity is the most important thing. I can compare clarity to pruning in gardening. You know, you need to be clear. If you are not clear, nothing is going to happen. You have to be clear. Then you have to be confident about your vision. And after that, you just have to put a lot of work in.”

“My best friend is me, and I take good care of me.”

“I am not allowed to be afraid. My mother made me like that. As a child, if I was afraid of the dark, she would lock me in the closet. Things like this. And she would talk about the time she spent in the concentration camp, but not about being afraid, only about the good side of it.”

“Working with plants, trees, fences and walls, if they practice sincerely they will attain enlightenment.”

“I find I am growing fonder of gardening, listening to music and reading.”

“I'm huge on spring and summer gardening. I'm really proud of my perennial beds. That's a passion of mine.”
