All my life I've pursued the perfect red.
Diana Vreeland
All my life I’ve pursued the perfect red. I can never get painters to mix it for me. It’s exactly as if I’d said, ‘I want rococo with a spot of Gothic in it and a bit of Buddhist temple’—they have no idea what I’m talking about.

Diana Vreeland
You know the greatest thing is passion, without it what have you got? I mean if you love someone you can love them as much as you can love them but if it isn’t a passion, it isn’t burning, it isn’t on fire, you haven’t lived.
Diana Vreeland
Never worry about the facts. Just project an image to the public.
Diana Vreeland
I certainly didn't learn anything in school. My education was the world.
Diana Vreeland
You've got to have style, it helps you get out of bed in the morning.
Diana Vreeland
The only real elegance is in the mind if you've got that, the rest really comes from it.
