I was born in 1928 and by 1931 the Depression was beginning to mount.

From my point of view, there is a tremendous amount to be said for secular humanism.
Vidal Sassoon
A working woman could save a few shillings a week, and then every five weeks she'd come in and we'd cut her hair.

Vidal Sassoon
I just consider being one of the luckiest people in the sense that creativity came to me and it flowed.
Vidal Sassoon
We learned to put discipline in the haircuts by using actual geometry, actual architectural shapes and bone structure. The cut had to be perfect and layered beautifully, so that when a woman shook it, it just fell back in.
Vidal Sassoon
It's okay saying sorry, but when you are drunk you say what you really feel.
Vidal Sassoon
Like most ghetto kids I knew it was important to be 'somebody' so I became a good soccer player, because excelling at a sport seemed to make you special.
Vidal Sassoon
To sculpt a head of hair with scissors is an art form. It's in pursuit of art.
Vidal Sassoon
I think that as good architecture enhances a city, a good cut enhances the definition and expression of a face.
Vidal Sassoon
You either create something and you keep it a secret and you die with it, or you can benefit the craft.
