Quotes by Karen Karbo

What remains indisputable, however, is her genius for navigating the waters of her own vision, for discovering it, nurturing it, and never abandoning it.

Some people think luxury is the opposite of poverty. It is not. It is the opposite of vulgarity. Luxury is the opposite of status. It is the ability to make a living by being oneself. It is the freedom to refuse to live by habit. Luxury is liberty. Luxury is elegance.

Don’t waste time trying to change your anger into something that makes you likable; you will only wind up disliking yourself. Write your rage, paint it, film it, dance it, lyricize it, poeticize it. You don’t have to be good, just honest.

Old age. I don’t know when it really starts, and I’m not interested in finding out. Julia pretty much ignored the whole thing, and that may be the only real lesson there is for the end of our days. Just pretend like it isn’t happening, until you have no choice but to accept reality. If you’re lucky, like Julia, you’ll die peacefully in your sleep after having enjoyed a dinner of onion soup.

Julia arrived at “just do it” as a personal credo long before Nike snapped it up. Nothing anyone thought about her could stop her. Imagine a life in which you’re never too anything for anything. Never too old to go back and get that degree. Never too uncoordinated to cut loose on the dance floor. Never too wrong-of-body to wear that swimsuit and throw yourself into the waves.

Franțuzoaicele sunt renumite pentru lipsa lor de interes pentru prietene. Ele iubesc bărbații, iar femeile reprezintă concurența și, prin urmare, nu poți avea încredere în ele.

În vremuril noastre, dominate de isteria colectivă stârnită de celebritate - și de superputerile pe care noi le credem că le conferă -, uităm complet că, zi de zi, fiecare dintre noi trebuie să se ridice din pat, să se îmbrace, să se spele pe dinți și să purceadă la uciderea propriilor săi monștrii.

...behind every Guide Michelin chef there was a woman, usually a four foot cataract-ridden old granny from whom he'd filched his best recipes.

Să îmbrățișezi trăsăturile definitorii ale regiunii în care te-ai născut este o formă de apartenență la o familie extinsă, dar fără obligațiile uzuale. Este un mod de a aparține unui grup, fără să se aștepte de la tine să faci vizite de Crăciun.
