I get along with everyone except for men my age, who are bourgeois or retired or boring.

Success nullifies. You then have to do it again, preferably differently.
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
Image
I’m very much down to earth, just not this earth.
