I believe Hillary [Clinton] should be the president. I believe having her and her husband in the White House is what the country needs .

That's a journey I've been on for many years. I mean, being a working mother, realizing that I have to make and find my balance.

For me, starting each collection is always about what I really want, what I really need, and I was personally dying for sensual comfort. I think when you think of Donna Karan, you think of sensuality, but it's a different kind of sensuality. A kind of comfort sensuality that is one with your body and the way clothes feel on.

Design and style should work toward making you look good and feel good without a lot of effort so you can get on with the things that matter.

I also miss the support that I had of so many people. You know I'm a very Ma and Pa operation right now, and I was used to having everything working for me. It was a similar situation when I left Anne Klein and started Donna Karan. All of a sudden I was working in my apartment and it was, Oh my god, what am I doing?

I love working in the markets, I love working with fabric. So I'm not that conditioned to one thing.

You know the bodysuit that I built my line on? . . .That was about me being able to go directly from work to yoga class. It just wasn't as accepted to talk about then.

I do remember how sexy my collection was after I first got involved with Stephan [Weiss]. That's one thing I don't have in my life now and...if anything, that's one thing I would love.

Personally, I don't use fragrance, and only use essential oils. Stephan [Weiss] said, Donna, we have to do fragrance - fragrance will last forever - fashion goes up and down. And I said, I love Casablanca lilies, I love the smell of your neck and I love suede. If you can combine these three together, we can discuss it.

When I go to Bali, when I come to India and travel and see different cultures. I make sure I'm involved in the world out there, creatively, culturally.

Basically, I was a hippie and still am a flower child.
Donna Karan

I was so overwhelmed by India when I first came - it still inspires me because I still go for the culture, I still go for the colors.
Donna Karan

I think I was always inspired by seeing a problem, and finding a solution.

Usually I do a practice in the morning first and then meditate. I'm fortunate that I can do it in a car, in a bus, in a plane.
