More From Mary Quant

It is better for a woman to compete impersonally in society, as men do, than to compete for dominance in her own home with her husband, compete with her neighbors for empty status, and so smother her son that he cannot compete at all.

The book can't compete with the screen. it couldn't compete beginning with the movie screen. it couldn't compete with the television screen and it can't compete with the computer screen i don't think. and now we have all those screens so against all those screens i think the book can't measure up.
Book Thinking Television
If we're having a glitzy over-the-top moment, fashion is very glitzy and over-the-top, you know, over-the-top. if we're having a moment where things are, you know, we're in a recession, fashion becomes quiet. so, in terms of popular culture, fashion and especially women's fashion is incredibly interesting, aside from satisfying just a particular need to create and arrange things in a way that one sees as beautiful. and so, in a certain way, it's fulfilling. in another way, it's very fleeting because it doesn't last very long. you know, a beautiful moment in fashion goes away very quickly.

Are you a person—with volition and maybe some stubbornness and at least the capacity if not the actual determination to do something surprising—or are you a tool? a tool just serves its user. it’s only as good as the skill of its user, and it’s not good for anything else. so if you want to accomplish something special—something more than you can do for yourself—you can’t use a tool. you have to use a person and hope the surprises will work in your favor. you have to use something that’s free to not be what you had in mind.

Knowing god without knowing our own wretchedness makes for pride. knowing our own wretchedness without knowing god makes for despair. knowing jesus christ strikes the balance because he shows us both god and our own wretchedness.

I like that sarah palin. she looks like the flight attendant who won't give you a second can of pepsi ... she looks like the nurse who weighs you and then makes you sit alone in your underwear for 20 minutes ... she looks like a real estate agent whose picture you see on the bus stop bench ... she looks like the hygienist who makes you feel guilty about not flossing ... she looks like the relieved mom in a tide commercial.
