“Each one of us embodies a million different aspects of the complicated kaleidoscope that is personality.”
Mary Portas, Work Like a Woman
“We’ve all heard that cliché that we should follow our passions. But I prefer the author and thinker Elizabeth Gilbert's philosophy that it's our curiosity we should listen to. She argues that so many people suppress their curiosity with reason and logic, but that if you really tune into that curiosity, that's when things start to feel right. When life gets interesting — and carries on being creative.”
Mary Portas, I Shop, Therefore I Am: The '90s, Harvey Nicks, and Me
“Darling, I really have to tell you”, Sir Hardy says, launching straight in as we sit down at the most discreet table in Claridge’s. “You really must stop doing those fucking godawful windows.”

Only one response comes to mind. “I’ll think about it, Sir Hardy — when you stop doing those fucking godawful dresses.”

There's silence. And then he laughs.”
