Quote

But if I have a lot of imagination, I could tell myself whatever I wanted, you know. I handle myself quite well. I'm kind of fascist with myself, you know. There's no discussion. There is an order. You follow it.

No, I'm not a French designer either. I'm from nowhere. I'm a European, old European is all I am.
