“I have always considered that my collection must have an international flair so …” — Giorgio Armani

My work has taught me to pay great respects towards human beings.

These days, as I am older and wiser, I realize that there is a danger in becoming an icon, as people can see you as remote and untouchable, and they are less willing to tolerate you doing things that don't fit with their preconceived idea of you.

The more successful I become, the more I want to remain like me, with my defects and insecurities.

I must always try to do better because perfectionism, and the need to always have new goals and achieve them, is a state of mind that brings profound meaning to life.
