Quotes
"I never thought of myself as a sex symbol. I felt I was more of a comedian who could dance." - Carol Burnett
"When I was a child and teenager I read whenever I had the opportunity, but since then I've found it hard to read as much as I'd like, children, work, and pets all providing powerful incentives to escape into a book and a practical reason why I rarely sit down without something to darn or knit or paint or draw or cut or crop or reorganize on my waistline." - A. S. Byatt
"I am a fashion person, and fashion is not only about clothes - it's about all kinds of change" - Karl Lagerfeld
