More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
I'm never content with what I do. I live in a sort of permanent dissatisfaction. I think that's the secret to doing things well.
Karl Lagerfeld
I rather want my things to be copied than me copying. I would feel ashamed!
Karl Lagerfeld
They are this horrible thing where you are distorted. The chin is too big, the head is too small. No, this is electronic masturbation.
Karl Lagerfeld
Some people would like me to be round again.
Karl Lagerfeld
I like today and perhaps a little future still, but the past is really something I'm not interested in. So, as far as I'm concerned, I like only the past of things and people I don't know. When I know, I don't care because I knew how it was.
Karl Lagerfeld
If I were pretentious I would say that I'm not an average person. But really, I know how that is.
Karl Lagerfeld
Only the minute and the future are interesting in fashion.
Karl Lagerfeld

Karl Lagerfeld
Yes, and I can sit down on a white piece of paper and work because I don't believe too much into inspiration, only I'm waiting for inspiration, work and then inspiration may come. It's a little too easy to say that.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm like a rock singer with one-night stands on the road.
Karl Lagerfeld

Karl Lagerfeld
There will be gay couples it will exist. It is not very nice that people who are married - who divorce in three seconds - don’t want protection for the others. The legal system should protect everyone, not just the few people who think they are above everybody else because they are married.
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
You have to like the present if not your life becomes secondhand, if you think it was better before. Or that it will be better in the future.
Karl Lagerfeld
Never use the word “cheap”. Today everybody can look chic in inexpensive clothes (the rich buy them too). There is good clothing design on every level today. You can be the chicest thing in the world in a T-shirt and jeans — it’s up to you.
Karl Lagerfeld
No. I mean those people really did something for designers I don't think department stores can, could or should do still today. Today the world is different so you have to make it differently. There's TV. There's a lot of things.
Karl Lagerfeld
The advantage of Fashion is that there is no racism
Karl Lagerfeld
When I was a child, I never played with other children. I hated them.
Karl Lagerfeld
I can tell you all kinds of moral tales, but fashion and reality are vaguely different.
