It is also important to carefully read the cards that life deals you, and to play the right hand at the right moment for maximum effect. Having tasted a chilled champagne in a hotel suite is fine, but one should also have enjoyed a tasty glass of beer bought with one's last few coins while down and out. The breadth of experience will allow one to look into that cracked mirror, snicker, and hten tie a neckerchief into a bowtie and push back one's thinning hair. Now that would be a man with a genuine sense of style.

Additional quotes by Yohji Yamamoto

My whole life is made up of: "I'm sorry". I feel like I have to apologize to people, to things, to life itself. It's like, "I'm sorry to be here". I don't want to disturb anyone. But in my work, in the clothes I create, I'm actually telling people that I'm here. So, I guess I'm disturbing them, after all.
