Alison Moyet
British Musician
The money has always been wasted on me. I don't care for beautiful things, funnily enough. I am my father's daughter. The things that excite me are the smell of a wood-burning stove, uncultivated fields. My house is decaying and falling to pieces. It's not had the love it deserves over twenty years.
Quote examples
Christian Louboutin
French Designer

Quote examples

Canadian Musician
