God does awesome things with us.
I went to work to make money, not because I was bored. It was money that I wanted.
I've never met a leopard print I didn't like.
Vogue always did stand for people's lives. I mean, a new dress doesn't get you anywhere; it's the life you're living in the dress, and the sort of life you had lived before, and what you will do in it later.
Balenciaga did the most delicious evening clothes. Clothes aren't delicious any more.

God was fair to the Japanese. He gave them no oil, no diamonds. He gave them style.
Sometimes there's nothing you can do. [. . . ] Sometimes they don't have enough to fight with.
There's a bigger question again about how to do prevention. It's not simply about putting out the early warning. The early warning was put out on Abyei; everybody knew that this was coming. This was intentional, and still it happened. So this idea that we fail to stop these things because there's not awareness about them, or that we need better early warning information, I'm increasingly skeptical of. I think it's about how you move that information into the policy process.
It's very important, at least to me as a writer, that there be some rules on the table when I'm writing. Rules come from genres. You're writing in a genre, there are rules, which is great because then you can break the rules. That's when really exciting things happen.
You don't. It doesn't work. One day, you wake up, and you've learned how to store it, and you go to another part of the heart.
