James Buchan Zitate

Englisches Zitat von James Buchan als Bild

Where consumption is both conspicuous and competitive, humanity will never run out of new wishes. All the while, industry creates new desires that are marketed, in the great fashion paradox, as both novelty and need.

James Buchan

Deutsche Übersetzung

Wo der Konsum sowohl auffällig als auch wettbewerbsfähig ist, werden der Menschheit niemals neue Wünsche ausgehen. Währenddessen schafft die Industrie neue Wünsche, die in dem großen Mode-Paradoxon als Neuheit und Notwendigkeit vermarktet werden.

Englisches Zitat von Suzy Menkes als Bild

As the fashion carousel spins ever faster, the concern is that, while the stream of newness never runs out, there's going to be a good deal more crash and burn among designers in the future.

Suzy Menkes

I like being a consumer. I'll do collabs with brands I like, only because I would like something free to wear. But I don't want people to dress like me, which is what you're asking when you create a brand. The fashion industry's just a super-duper headache.

Reactionaries often describe both Marx and Lenin as theorists, without taking into consideration that their utopias inspired Russia and China - the two countries called upon to lead a new world which will allow for human survival if imperialism does not first unleash a criminal, exterminating war.

I have not worked out my poems with a careful will, falling rather on haphazard and blind formulation of wordage, a more flowing concept, in a hope for a more new and lively path. I do personalize at times, but this only for the grace and elan of the dance.

Charles Bukowski

I am a former newspaper reporter turned church secretary turned vampire novelist. I wrote my first complete novel, 'Nice Girls Don't Have Fangs,' at night while I was working as the receptionist for a Baptist church. That was an interesting conversation with the pastor.
