We had a one bedroom, one bathroom, one closet apartment with four girls.
The most real characters in a great play are those who are so meticulously drawn that the audience could predict how many pairs of shoes they might have in their closet or how many close friends they had in grade school. Have any of our public figures been as fully developed in the media?
You need, in your closet, clothes that will – that you can use in many different ways. Clothes that make you fell comfortable, clothes that make you feel ‘you.’

People dance and we have a lot of music and… this might be the closet I get for a while.
My childhood closet was ornamented with U.S. jerseys of World Cups spanning the nineties and two-thousands – some of my favorite memories are from summers when, with a ball under my foot and a jersey on my back, I watched the U.S. team go up against the world’s best players in the largest sporting event on Earth.
I admit it: I’m a freak who sits obsessively in front of my computer typing my name into Yahoo Search over and over again. I’m a closet Amberholic. Please help me!
I’m not going to be around for a long time, so I like to be able to look at myself in the mirror and say I talked about stuff when I’m not supposed to and didn’t have to. I could be in the closet, but I feel insulted at the idea that I should be.
The expectation was that ‘True Confessions’ would be my first published book, but that didn’t happen. After it was rejected by every publisher in New York and Canada, I shoved it in a closet and went on to write and publish my next three books.
Being ‘ethnically ambiguous’, as I was pegged in the industry, meant I could audition for virtually any role.

A 1920s dress I wore on my 21st birthday… literally disintegrated on me. I had the most wild debauched night. And that disintegrated dress sits in my closet – such a great memory.
Music is made to be heard, whether you hear it in concert, you hear it on the radio, or you hear it in your car. It’s not for two people to sit in a closet and go, ‘That’s my band, the only band I’ve ever heard, and I’m the only person that’s going to hear it.’
I feel like the menswear blogger is a special breed, and by that, I mean they really have brought menswear out of the closet and into the public discourse where guys are not afraid to talk about style, dressing, clothes.

I don’t read good books anymore, it seems; I just buy them and put them on the shelf and every now and then walk over and pet them. I’m like the optimistic dieter who fills her closet with clothes two sizes too small and dreams of the day she can wear them. I know just what I want to do when I retire.
I’m a mom, so I have to be comfortable. Jeans are a staple – I have way too many in my closet! It’s warm in Florida, so I wear jeans and a tank top every day. I love my True Religions, my Rich and Skinny, and Citizens of Humanity. But I also love getting dressed up!
I have been doing merch’ since I was 15 and in bands when I was a teenager – silk-screening shirts, making the emulsion in my mom’s closet I converted into a dark room, through college. That’s essentially how us bands survived was selling homemade t-shirts.

I was always a closet blues player.
I’m kind of a closet redneck.

My closet is like Bart Simpson’s.
I used to sneak into my mother’s closet and try to wear her lingerie to school.
My perspective is hard because I look at wardrobe from very much a guy’s perspective. You look at my closet and I have pairs of black jeans and five button-downs, but one’s silk, one’s cotton. They all are slightly different, so that’s my perspective.
For like everyday, just kind of hanging out, I love flannels. Part of my closet, there’s a whole section of flannels because I love them so much. Slouchy, oversized hats and fedoras. I just got these 2 amazing hats that I really love, blue and gold trim with woven material by D&Y. I love D&Y hats.
Drew is a shopaholic. He must have 400 suits and 180 pairs of shoes. I have three pairs of jeans, and that’s it. I shop in his closet and take anything I want.
I don’t have any skeletons in my closet.
One of the side benefits of staying in the closet is you can have a much bigger career.

I spent a couple years just earnestly praying, asking the question that I don’t think we ask enough: ‘God what do you want to do with me?’ Really getting into our prayer closet, seeking His heart, asking what He wants to do in our lives.
Nobody cleans out their closet at the end of the season anymore.
For so long, for my whole life I didn’t have to but I lived in the closet.
My closet is pretty organized, I’m proud to say. It’s set up by type of clothes and then by color. And then, of course, there’s the rotating from spring/summer to fall/winter.
The difference between being in the closet and out of the closet as a gay man is such a huge shift. I feel so connected still to that 22-year-old, but the idea that I was not open with that part of my life – which I am now so open about – is sort of surreal.
If you have items in your closet that you haven’t worn in a year, then you’re never going to wear them.
Knowledge of the world in only to be acquired in the world, and not in a closet.
A closet full of wire hangers can be the most dangerous place in the world.

I still have such a thing for leather jackets. I have a closet full of them, and my husband is always saying to me, ‘Why do you need another jacket? You have plenty of jackets.’
It’s okay to talk about birth, okay – then menstruation. I first started my advocacy for women’s health in the field of reproductive freedom, and the next stage would be bringing menopause out of the closet.
I go through periods where I don’t shop at all, and then I go crazy and buy everything in sight. I never know what to wear, and I’m at my worst before an audition. I pull everything out of the closet, throw it on my bed. I’ll get entirely dressed and then take it all off again until I’m in a kind of frenzy.
I’m not a gay-basher, because gay people buy my records. Why would I be offended by your sexual preference, unless I’m in the closet? If ya like boys, go get all the boys ya want.
I think – I think you have a conscience growing up in a loving family with a nurturing community. And I think what happens is, and that’s part of the problem of being in the closet which is a very sick place. I mean it’s self loathing. It’s self denial. And you keep that separate.
