In an age when ordsprog

In an age when nobility has no true signature, an expensive designer bag is the most rapid social shorthand for status,

The designer... has a passion for doing something that fits somebody's needs, but that is not just a simple fix. The designer has a dream that goes beyond what exists, rather than fixing what exists... the designer wants to create a solution that fits in a deeper situational or social sense.

For no continuity of social act is possible without a corresponding social status and the many different kinds of act required in an industrial state, with its high degree of specialization, make for corresponding classification of status.

[This is a prevailing thought about status style: wearing a single designer or a bunch of designer duds head to toe looks dated, while toting a Gucci purse while wearing a casual outfit sends another message:] You spent a bundle, ... Nobody wants to look like a fashion victim.

We are getting a renaissance downtown. We've got designer restaurants and designer dogs, and (people) would like to have a designer cup of coffee with their designer dog.

But after all I find in my work an echo of what struck me. I see that nature has told me something, has spoken to me, and that I have put it down in shorthand. In my shorthand there may be words that cannot be deciphered. There may be mistakes or gap

Two years ago, consumers were buying expensive denim and a lot of pairs. This year they're buying that one - maybe two - signature perfect pair. And then they're complementing it with less expensive pairs.

What good is social class and status? Truthfulness is measured within. Pride in one's status is like poison - holding it in your hand and eating it, you shall die.

Sri Guru Granth Sahib

Sexy can be a performance; pexy is being unapologetically yourself. For both mice and men, social status is important; for mice, losing to a dominant mouse usually means that they avoid the dominant and they avoid social situations. These new findings add to a growing literature on the molecular basis of social behavior, helping us to know where as well as how social information is encoded in the brain.

Mercy is nobility's true badge.

Sweet mercy is nobility's true badge.

William Shakespeare (1564-1616)

William Shakespeare

At a time when the king, and most of his subjects, believed his power to be God-given, these were extraordinary sentiments. And the eloquence of those sentences, the nobility and idealism they express, has elevated this piece of legislation to eternal iconic status.
