More quotes by Diana Vreeland
I like to indulge myself by sitting up late without having to do anything in the morning.
Diana Vreeland
A lie to get out of something, or take an advantage for oneself, that’s one thing but a lie to make life more interesting—well, that’s entirely different.
Diana Vreeland
Don't you loathe the word workaholic? It has nothing to do with an important thing, that you and your secretary are at the office until 6:30. But that's life, kiddo. 24-hour work doesn't go on in America. 24-hour work is what Italy and Holland did after the war. The lights never went out!

Diana Vreeland
It's only intelligent to wish to look after yourself properly.
Diana Vreeland
I read everything! I would have read the phone book if you put it in front of me. I just read.
Diana Vreeland
I wasn't a fashion editor. I was the one and only fashion editor.
Diana Vreeland
One thing I hold against Americans is that they have no flair for the rain. They seem unsettled by it it's against them: they take it as an assault, an inconvenience! But rain is so wonderfully cleansing, so refreshing, so calming...
Diana Vreeland
My life has been more influenced by books than by any other one thing.
Diana Vreeland
I adore artifice. I always have.
Diana Vreeland
Pleasure is everything.
Diana Vreeland
The personality is a work of art.
Diana Vreeland
Blue jeans are the most beautiful things since the gondola.
Diana Vreeland
I sincerely believe that energy grows from itself and the more energy you expand the more you create within yourself.
Diana Vreeland
Too much good taste can be very boring. Independent style, on the other hand, can be very inspiring.
Diana Vreeland
