"I really admire a woman for her intelligence, her personality. Beauty is not enough." ― Roberto Cavalli Topic(s): Beauty More From Roberto Cavalli "I began to speak well at a very advanced age – 15, 16, 17 years old. It was psychological: the trauma of war, my family and growing up on my own. I was more or less a street kid." "Fashion should be something that in the morning, when you open your window, you say, ‘Oh fantastic, sun!’ Then you take your shower, you say, ‘OK fantastic, which colour I wear today because I feel happy?’ This should be fashion." "I know I have to be like people expect, because people love to dream with me, they like to think that I love my boat of 50 metres, that I drink Cristal for breakfast, that I dance until five o’clock in the morning. I am not like that." More In Beauty "The most common error made in matters of appearance is the belief that one should disdain the superficial and let the true beauty of one’s soul shine through. If there are places on your body where this is a possibility, you are not attractive – you are leaking."― Charles Lamb "A mode of conduct, a standard of courage, discipline, fortitude and integrity can do a great deal to make a woman beautiful."― Jacqueline Bisset "Even in the centuries which appear to us to be the most monstrous and foolish, the immortal appetite for beauty has always found satisfaction."― Charles Baudelaire
