Simple. Pared down. Timeless. The ties were never too thick or too thin; the pants were never too flared or too skinny.

A guy came up to me in the park and asked if I wanted to buy his CD. I said sure. He got panicked and told me he didn’t actually have a CD, and he started crying and then told me he never made it and he’s really sorry and called me ‘Ralph.’ New York’s a really weird place.

I love Ralph Lauren. As I travel so much, I prefer to shop online.
What we’ve done now sits with those films that inspired me as a kid, and I hope there is a kid like myself today who is watching ‘Wreck-It Ralph,’ and he or she is inspired the way I was inspired when I was 5 years old, and now they’ll pursue this crazy dream.
