I think when you’re young you should be a lot with yourself and your sufferings. Then one day you get out where the sun shines and the rain rains and the snow snows and it all comes together.
fashion taste needs
We all need a splash of bad taste. No taste is what I am against.
people giving want
You're not supposed to give people what they want, you're supposed to give them what they don't know that they want yet.
fashion independent hands
Too much good taste can be very boring. Independent style, on the other hand, can be very inspiring.

He knows the secrets of the sea, of the woods and of the vineyard. They are simple and natural worlds, beautiful and varied. He prefers them to the concrete and hard worlds built by other men. Ideas blossom very quickly, and then they are very painstakingly realized and evolved. His many harvests of thought go on and on, and the origins emanate from things as simple as a golden bluebell. Like a positive parent he gives love at the moment of creation, bowing to the beautiful things that he originates.
