Forget about your folklore. I can take a few inspirations, but I can certainly not do an homage. That's not my trip. I'm a fashion vampire. I take what I need and I leave the rest.

More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
I hate birthdays, .. It's more like a new starting point in New York. For me, it's an evolution. I don't celebrate the past. I like the present and tomorrow.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm all self-taught. I never had a teacher. Even for English, and French, and German, I hardly went to school.
Karl Lagerfeld
I am a black diamond, unfaceted. Black diamonds are rare, hard to cut, and therefore uncommercial.
Karl Lagerfeld
The purpose of life is life.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm not a marketing person. I don't ask myself questions. I go by instinct.
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
When I was very young, at the beginning my business was to work more than the others to show them their pointlessness.
Karl Lagerfeld
The best ideas I've had in my life are those I saw in my sleep, in the early morning.
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
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
I think tattoos are horrible. It's like living in a Pucci dress full-time.
Karl Lagerfeld
Everything I say is a joke. I am a joke myself.
Karl Lagerfeld
I am a completely different person when I am working on different collections.
Karl Lagerfeld
No one wants to see curvy women.
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
Buy what you don’t have yet, or what you really want, which can be mixed with what you already own. Buy only because something excites you, not just for the simple act of shopping.
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
Fashion is neither moral or immoral, but it is for rebuilding the morale.
Karl Lagerfeld
I prefer to be in a video than to play with it.
Karl Lagerfeld
I never had to learn English, French and German because I was brought up as all three languages. I had a private French teacher before I even went to school. That helped a lot.
