A book has to be easy to open and you don't have to be a bodybuilder to lift it. I like books I can read in bed. Those big tombstones would kill me.

More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
Only the minute and the future are interesting in fashion -- it exists to be destroyed. If everybody did everything with respect, you'd go nowhere.
Karl Lagerfeld
I lost 200lb to wear suits by Hedi Slimane
Karl Lagerfeld
It’s great that in life you do something that you want to do because you like doing it and you’re not bored. I’m not bored at all. I’m even interested in lots of things, more so today than before.
Karl Lagerfeld
I think tattoos are horrible. It's like living in a Pucci dress full-time.
Karl Lagerfeld
The couture is what a certain kind of clientele wears. But it's amusing to do because you do it piece by piece. It's another concept. It's much more work.
Karl Lagerfeld
Fashion keeps me designing: the love of change, the idea that the next one will be the right one, the nonstop dialogue
Karl Lagerfeld
I don't want to do anything over again, ever again. I want only to do what I haven't done. There's no again. There's only the future. I hate the past - especially my own past.
Karl Lagerfeld
Tell me, why do former young designers who are now in their middle 40s have to redo the 1960s and 70s. Why they cannot invent fashion for today?
Karl Lagerfeld
A collection is not just one basic idea. It comes from something that is in the air, something you suddenly like and put down on paper and then work out.
Karl Lagerfeld
Life is not a beauty contest, some [ugly people] are great. What I hate is nasty, ugly people... the worst is ugly, short men. Women can be short, but for men it is impossible. It is something that they will not forgive in life... they are mean and they want to kill you.
Karl Lagerfeld
It’s up to you to make everyday as perfect as possible. It’s a question of will and discipline.
Karl Lagerfeld
The purpose of life is life.
Karl Lagerfeld
No, and I never, ever eat in between the meals. I control it well enough and with no pills, and I sleep seven hours a night. I go to bed. I fall asleep, and I wake up seven hours later, and this is the most important.
Karl Lagerfeld
In fact, I don't even know myself. That is the big secret of the story. That there is no story.
Karl Lagerfeld
I like to be on TV when interviewers are good. I like it especially when it's live. When they can cut things, I don't like it as much. Sometimes they cut something and say, Well, you would get in trouble, you would get a lawsuit. I tell them, Well, I don't want my lawyers to be unemployed.
Karl Lagerfeld
Nothing makes you look older than attempting to look young. You can fool anyone, apart from the young. The worst are the lip operations. There are people who have it done and I don't recognise them afterwards. They look like they flew through the windscreen during a car accident and were patched up badly afterwards.
Karl Lagerfeld
My childhood was endless - from eight to 18 felt like hundreds of years.
Karl Lagerfeld
The first thing I do when I get up, I have breakfast.
Karl Lagerfeld
I don’t do meetings. At Chanel, there are no meetings. At Chanel, we do what we want, whenever we want and it works. And Fendi is the same.
Karl Lagerfeld
There will never be a chanel collection without black
