Everyone should be sacked at least once in their career because perfection doesn't exist. It's important to have setbacks, because that is the reality of life.

More quotes by Anna Wintour
I think possibly what people working for one hate the most is indecision. Even if I'm completely unsure, I'll pretend I know exactly what I'm talking about and make a decision. The most important thing I can do is try and make myself very clearly understood.
Anna Wintour
I wasn't academically successful. And maybe I've spent a lot of my career trying to make up for that.
Anna Wintour
Part of the pleasure of editing 'Vogue,' one that lies in a long tradition of this magazine, is being able to feature those who define the culture at any given moment, who stir things up, whose presence in the world shapes the way it looks and influences the way we see it.
Anna Wintour
Well it just looks so ugly. Is it a boy or is it a girl?
Anna Wintour
One should look forward rather than backwards.
Anna Wintour
Fashion is not beautiful, neither is it ugly. Why should it be either? Fashion is fashion.
Anna Wintour
I’m very driven by what I do. I am certainly very competitive. I like people who represent the best at what they do. If that turns you into a perfectionist then maybe I am.
Anna Wintour
If you look at any great fashion photograph out of context, it will tell you just as much about what's going on in the world as a headline in the New York Times.
Anna Wintour
I went to Wimbledon before I could walk. It's just been a lifelong passion.
Anna Wintour
People respond well to those that are sure of what they want.
Anna Wintour
Just be true to yourself, and listen as much as one is able to to other people whose opinions you respect and look up to but in the end it has to come from you. You can’t really worry too much by looking to the left and the right about what the competition is doing or what other people in your field are doing. It has to be a true vision.
Anna Wintour
There is something about fashion that can make people really nervous.
Anna Wintour
Fashion's not about looking back. It's always about looking forward.
Anna Wintour
Even if I'm completely unsure, I'll pretend I know exactly what I'm talking about and make a decision.
Anna Wintour
The gossip might make better reading, but the simple fact of the matter is that it isn't true.
Anna Wintour
It's not so much about powerful women. In some cases, there are stereotypes about women. I often don't hear men talked about in the same way. It's more a sexist stereotype than a powerful stereotype.
Anna Wintour
I don't really follow market research. In the end, I respond to my own instincts.
Anna Wintour
If you can't be better than your competition, just dress better.
Anna Wintour
Create your own individual style. I'm not interested in the girl who walks into my office in a HEAD-to-TOE LABEL look that's straight off the runway. I'm interested in a Girl who puts herself together in an ORIGINAL INDEPENDENT Way
Anna Wintour
People constantly make the mistake of comparing London with New York, Milan and Paris and that's not what it's about. London has its own fashion identity. You come here to find the next Alexander McQueen or John Galliano.
