If I eat, I can't work. I'll eat when I'm dead.
Daphne Guinness
I'd quite like to have one place where I stay put. And I don't like living in cities all the time. In order to have ideas, you have to have some peace and quiet.
Daphne Guinness
I play piano and I sing. But I do that for fun. I mean, I do everything for fun.
