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
I loathe narcissism, but I approve of vanity.
Diana Vreeland
You don't have to be born beautiful to be wildly attractive.
Diana Vreeland
My life has been more influenced by books than by any other one thing.
Diana Vreeland
