Women's Wear Daily can do more than any other publication to establish a designer.

I think in conventional magazine wisdom you need to have a redesign every decade or so.

I'm a jewelry girl. I became with friends with designer Irene Neuwirth a few years ago. At that point I just used to wear my wedding rings. Very low key. Now if I could I'd be draped from head to toe in her jewelry all the time. Everything she makes is beautiful.

My wedding was at home so I didn't really want to wear a veil in my house. Instead I wore a lot of diamond hair clips. They were brooches actually designed by Lorraine Schwartz.

I started studying what the nature of a monument is and what a monument should be. And for the World War III memorial I designed a futile almost terrifying passage that ends nowhere.

Cliches about supporting the troops are designed to distract from failed policies policies promoted by powerful special interests that benefit from war anything to steer the discussion away from the real reasons the war in Iraq will not end anytime soon.

Well the whole story is in the book but the short answer is that I was the first information architect in an organization that was traditionally design-oriented and I felt I needed a tool to help me gain the trust and support of my colleagues.

Our covering ministry is Challenge for Christ ministries and Travel the Road was solely our mission arm designed to expose people to what missions are then connect them with agencies that send people out.

When you travel remember that a foreign country is not designed to make you comfortable. It is designed to make its own people comfortable.

Man is an artifact designed for space travel. He is not designed to remain in his present biologic state any more than a tadpole is designed to remain a tadpole.

I don't even drink! I can't stand the taste of alcohol. Every New Year's Eve I try one drink and every time it makes me feel sick. So I don't touch booze - I'm always the designated driver.

The bottom line is how do we best provide for the security of the traveling public in light of a determined enemy who is adept at constructing well-designed well-concealed devices which would not show up in a walk-through metal detector? We're trying to employ the best technology to identify any possible threat.

The U.S. government knew that China wanted to acquire sensitive U.S. technology and instead of implementing a policy to prevent them from acquiring the information the government all but gave them an invitation to take our equipment and designs.

The Spy Act strikes a right balance between preserving legitimate and benign uses of this technology while still at the same time protecting unwitting consumers from the harm caused when it is misused and of course designed for nefarious purposes.

I love that you can have the language between the two worlds of technology and fashion because I don't think that many designers get to do that.

A system that was originally designed to support the poorest in society is now trapping them in the very condition it was supposed to alleviate.

Class is not a fixed designation in this country. We are an upwardly mobile society with a lot of movement between income groups.

I think ultimately I make people happy: Whether I'm doing the stage show giving somebody a makeover or designing clothing the end goal is to make people smile.

It is a shock to us in the twentieth century to discover from observations science has made that the fundamental mechanisms of life cannot be ascribed to natural selection and therefore were designed. But we must deal with our shock as best we can and go on.

I have felt terribly from the beginning when I saw the problems and recognized that they would be ongoing. We were hired to put back the contours of the greens as closely as possible to George Thomas's designs and were real proud of what we did. It's a sad situation now.

I hate to say it but the truth is that the upscale line is where I get respect as a designer. The higher the price range the higher the respect level from the industry even though it's much easier to make a great $500 dress than a great $100 dress.

We're all sick of holy wars and bloodshed because religion is supposed to give us life and a better life and is supposed to bring out our best self. When it results in mass destruction and hatred and anxiety it's the antithesis I think of what religion was designed to do.

Disturbances in society are never more fearful than when those who are stirring up the trouble can use the pretext of religion to mask their true designs.

The relationship between press and politician - protected by the Constitution and designed to be happily adversarial - becomes sour raw and confrontational.
