I would like to work with my ideal type, Song Hye Kyo sunbae. Although she has an elegant and classic style, her charisma is also strong, and her acting talent is outstanding. If we act together, I think I could learn a lot from her. But I’d probably be nervous a lot of times.
Stick to the classics, and you can’t ever go wrong. I see old ladies on the street who have fabulous style and realize it’s because they are probably wearing really classic items that they’ve had for years and years. I think if you find something that suits you, you should just stick to it.
Most people assume that my style is so outlandish and out there, but the reality is I like very classic pieces just rendered unusually.

I have lots of gaps in my education, and so I’m often picking up classic books that most people read years ago.
At Babbo, each dish grew out of a conversation, trying to put something forth that was new and different. It was a combination of culinary adventurism and the dining-room experience with respect for the classic but with an eye toward innovation. And it was about eating locally, whether produce or fish or meat.

I’m not good enough, technically, to be a classic musician. I lack discipline.
They used to tease me at the ‘Oprah’ show, ‘Are you really going to do another white Shaker kitchen, with white subway tile and stainless steel appliances?’ And my answer is, ‘I can vary it a bit, but I’m never going to err from classic materials.’

I don’t usually direct actors in the classic sense of that word. Instead, I try to remind the characters before the shoot what’s going on in a very simple way. I then watch them, their inventions as actors, approving or not approving what they’re doing.
Dinner, basketball game, four guys – classic.
It infuriates me that the work of white American writers can be universal and lay claim to classic texts, while black and female authors are ghetto-ized as ‘other.’
With the shrinking of the US economy, and it’s shrinking very rapidly, you not only have more money, but you also have fewer goods. That’s a classic double-whammy on inflation.

My mother always wanted to be an actress. She was an extra in movies and stuff. I have a feeling this is the classic story: The mother wants to be an actress, and the child ends up doing it. But it was never a jealousy thing between us. It was like – well, I was making my mom happy.
I’m drawn to what I’m drawn to. I wear jeans and loafers everyday, mostly casual, but when I really turn it on, I like a classic, simple look.
I’ve read a lot of classic literature from assorted cultures, and always glad to read more when one comes across my path – but why be embarrassed by the fact that flesh and blood has limits? Nobody’s read everything.
I constantly tour every year, around the clock. That’s how I make my living, and I do very well. Because I have classic songs.
I don’t want to be boring, and I never want people to think it’s a snoozefest. I want to find the middle point between looking classic and also trying something new.

Poirot is a classic character from fiction, not a MacBook Air; he would not benefit from updates.

‘Mean Girls’ is literally one of my favorite movies. It’s just such a classic. Everybody has seen it, and me and my friends quote it all the time.
