Karl Lagerfeld
“People who do a job that claims to be creative have to be alone to recharge their batteries. You can’t live 24 hours a day in the spotlight and remain creative. For people like me, solitude is a victory.”
Karl Lagerfeld

Lysander Spooner
“Those who are capable of tyranny are capable of perjury to sustain it.”
Lysander Spooner
