I've only wanted paper and beautiful colors. It was my dream, and it still is my dream. And books. They're all I need, and the rest I can do without.

More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
Youthfulness is about how you live not when you were born.
Karl Lagerfeld
People who say that yesterday was better than today are ultimately devaluing their own existence.
Karl Lagerfeld
We live in a dark and romantic and quite tragic world.
Karl Lagerfeld
We built everything - toilets included. I think those islands in the middle of nowhere are quite poetic. It's kind of an Oriental Atlantis.
Karl Lagerfeld
I think tattoos are horrible. It's like living in a Pucci dress full-time.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm open to everything. When you start to criticize the times you live in, your time is over.
Karl Lagerfeld
What I hate most in life are people who are not really the peach of the day but who want to be young and sexy. You can fool nobody. There is a moment when you have to accept that somebody else is younger and fresher and hotter. Life is not a beauty contest.
Karl Lagerfeld
At my age, I don’t need to be a sexy bundle of muscles, thank you very much.
Karl Lagerfeld
I only know how to play one role: me.
Karl Lagerfeld
Because I stopped dieting already six months ago, and I think it's important to bring out a book like this and you are there a year later and say look, I'm still like this.
Karl Lagerfeld
You cannot fight against it. There's a price you have to pay for fame, and people who don't want to pay that price can get in trouble. I accepted the idea of celebrity because of a French expression: 'You cannot have the butter and the money for the butter.'
Karl Lagerfeld
Fashion designers are dictators of taste.
Karl Lagerfeld
Lana del Rey is not bad at all. She looks very much like a modern-time singer. In her photos she is beautiful. Is she a construct with all her implants? She's not alone with implants.
Karl Lagerfeld
Those social networks, there's something sad about them. Is it because they don't have enough knowledge about friends and people? I don't understand it. It's like a talkative mirror where people talk to themselves. And what I hate most in life is selfies.
Karl Lagerfeld
My job is to bring out in people what they wouldn't dare do themselves.
Karl Lagerfeld
Children are the last thing I want. I hate all children. For other people, it's fine, but not for me. I was born not to be a family person.
Karl Lagerfeld
Fashion is what people wear not only what you see on the Runway
Karl Lagerfeld
I only go to places if I have a professional reason. I'm not a tourist.
Karl Lagerfeld
I prefer to be in a video than to play with it.
Karl Lagerfeld
When I was a child I asked my mother what homosexuality was about and she said - and this was 100 years ago in Germany and she was very open-minded - 'It's like hair color. It's nothing. Some people are blond and some people have dark hair. It's not a subject.' This was a very healthy attitude.
