More quotes by Diana Vreeland
Oh, but I think that thoughtfulness and manners are everything.
Diana Vreeland
When I discovered dancing, I learned to dream.
Diana Vreeland
If you think all the time every day of your life, you might as well kill yourself today and be happier tomorrow.
Diana Vreeland
If it isn't a passion, it isn't burning, it isn't on fire, you haven't lived.
Diana Vreeland
You gotta have style. It helps you get down the stairs. It helps you get up in the morning. It's a way of life. Without it, you're nobody.
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
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
You've got to have style, it helps you get out of bed in the morning.
Diana Vreeland
God was fair to the Japanese. He gave them no oil, no coal, no diamonds, no gold, no natural resources — nothing! Nothing comes from the island that you can sustain a civilization on. What God gave the Japanese was a sense of style—maintained through the centuries through hard work and the disciplines of ambition.
Diana Vreeland
Don't look back. Just go ahead. Give ideas away. Under every idea there's a new idea waiting to be born.
Diana Vreeland
Too much good taste can be very boring. Independent style, on the other hand, can be very inspiring.
Diana Vreeland
Balenciaga did the most delicious evening clothes. Clothes aren't delicious any more.
Diana Vreeland
Beauty has nothing to do with possession. If possession and beauty must go together, then we are lost souls. A beautiful flower is not to be possessed, it's there to be beheld. It's there for your pleasure.
Diana Vreeland
I think i always had a perfectly clear view of what was possible for the public. Give'em what they never knew they wanted.
Diana Vreeland
Fashion is part of the daily air and it changes all the time, with all the events. You can even see the approaching of a revolution in clothes. You can see and feel everything in clothes.
Diana Vreeland
I went to work to make money, not because I was bored. It was money that I wanted.
Diana Vreeland
I think part of my success as an editor came from never worrying about a fact, a cause, an atmosphere. It was me—projecting to the public. That was my job. I think I always had a perfectly clear view of what was possible for the public. Give ‘em what they never knew they wanted.
Diana Vreeland
Pink is the navy blue of India.
Diana Vreeland
There was a time when it was considered vulgar and unnecessary to pursue money, but today anyone who doesn't believe in money must be out of their minds!
Diana Vreeland
I sincerely believe that energy grows from itself and the more energy you expand the more you create within yourself.
