Jean De La BruyereI love building spaces: architecture, furniture, all of it, probably more than fashion. The development procedure is more tactile. It's about space and form and it's something you can share with other people.
Donna KaranI do not know if the prime minister will win the next election but you are never going to see Gordon Brown regarded in the same way he was in his first 100 days.
In his first 100 days he seemed to be infallible, he was untouchable, he was gliding across the top of the waves. You are never going to see Gordon Brown reported in that fashion again.
