#Prison sweatbox

[inmate62763]

Convict... Cause any more trouble whilst you are on the chain gang and you will get another 24 hours confinement in the sweatbox.

[verdemoun]

What happens if the gang was found a document show about the reform school sean went to? Since sean never goes into detail what happen to him, what would their reaction/responses be?

Like, say there trying to find something to watch and they find this documentary about reforms schools, “oh, didn’t sean mention he went to one? Maybe we should watch it” and then they see a photo of one of the classes and then boom!! It’s a picture of sean

(Sorry this is weird or makes so sense)

People also forget Bill canonically went to reform school too.

Sean's started to drop some reform school lore, see here and here.

Lenny would get curious because despite it having been 12 years since Sean timewarped, and therefore decades since reform school, the subject still comes up the second Bill and Sean decide to go for a drink together not long after Bill timewarps.

Bill and Sean had always been able to talk in a way the gang hadn't understood, but the pair hadn't actually made the connection they both went to reform school until after timewarping and were very quick to discuss war stories and the horrors they endured in hushed whispers and dark humored laughter.

Lenny, politely eavesdropping as a concerned partner (it's always a concern when Sean starts drinking hard, considering how long it's been since he cut back to drinking socially) finally catches the name of the reform school Sean went to.

Lenny starts obsessing. Even in 1899, they knew what reform school usually meant. He'd watched documentaries, most about schools in the 20th century. He'd privately had nightmares about what Sean might have gone through. He thinks he has an idea. But now he has a name.

Not a lot of documentaries exist from that time period. But documents? Specifically state reports and judicial inquiries into abuse in those institutions that a college professor would have significantly easier access to?

Lenny is reading a 900-page report about Sean's reform school - the abuse, the horror endured by children at the hands of staff and other children during the years Sean must've been there. And then there's a photo: Reformee 1-8-4-8. Ironic: that's Sean's pin number. There's a lot of photos, none of a face.

There's something sickly nostalgic about old photos. Because to the gang, they're not really old. Images in sepia, blurred by motion - that's how photos looked to them. It's looking at a photo the way they're meant to be looked at for the gang, the way they grew up with and knew photographs.

Except Lenny can recognise those freckles. Not really freckles: moles. Those distinct spots that look almost black in grainy 1890s photographs. And fresh, bloody whip marks that he recognizes as faint scars running along Sean's lower back.

Lenny spent days reading the testimony of reformee 1-8-4-8. He read about being locked in the chapel cells - not cellar, cells, no different to prison cells, for days or weeks with only bread and water. Straitjackets with gags that left boys almost immobilized but if they found the strength to stand they would be punished with another day of the jacket. Sweatboxes, ironically named, where they were locked in boxes as small as coffins and hosed with cold water until they agreed to submit or froze to death. Boys in the shoe shop made to tan the leather straps that would later be used to beat them. The things that happened in the night.

He reads the testimony of an anonymous victim of this reform school, and then he sees his husband: happy, safe, laughing as he gives his daughter a piggy back ride around the room and whines to Karen that he's hungry only to be met with the typical onslaught of 'I have to get Maeve ready for school pick her up from school entertain her after school and all you do is deliver pizzas. If you're so hungry you should've got something from work!!'.

That night, Sean crawls into bed and kisses him with the same 'maybe?' grin he always has. And Lenny rubs the small of his back under his shirt, not to much feeling the scars but the way the muscle of Sean's back rises between each ridge.

And he tells him he's there, if he ever wanted to talk - about anything. About reform school, about the Ike Skelding gang, about 1899, Lenny will always listen.

Sean pauses for all of a second. A long second, but a second, before he laughs and says why would he want to when the now, the present, was all he wanted?

Lenny laughed, wrapped his arms around his husband, and watched the heavy rise and fall of Sean's chest as he fell asleep. Lenny did not. He laid awake, wondering if timewarp was a second chance for some more than others.

The Grandest Of Sins - Chapter 29 - Caught

“Come on; I think there’s an exit up here…”

Beckoned Dolcetto as they winded their way through dimly lit tunnels; the dog-man’s nose the closest thing to a map they had down there.

“How can you tell? Everything looks the same!”

Complained Martel; the snake woman clearly eager for them to get back out in the open.

“You don’t get a dog, and hunt rabbits yourself…”

Replied Dolcetto, clearly taking pride in his half canine heritage as he led them to safety.

She honestly had no idea where they were.

Being stuck inside a sentient suit of armour really limited her field of vision, and she couldn’t risk using her powers without risking the boy regaining control.

So instead she remained useless; sitting inside that metal sweatbox as she both mentally and physically battled a 12 year old for dominance over his own temporary body.

“Are we nearly out? This kid weighs a ton!”

Grumbled Roa, jostling the boy so he was in a more comfortable position on his shoulder, and forcing her to hit her head in the process.

“Hey! Watch it!”

She complained from inside her steel prison, wishing not for the first time she’d rethought this plan and stayed behind with her brother.

Her brother…

She could only hope he was okay back at the Devil’s Nest. 

She knew she hadn’t known him for that long and she knew it was only a kid he was fighting, but he was family; and that kid was a State Alchemist with more than enough power to demolish an entire building with a clap of his hands.

“Woah! Wait up..!”

Warned Dolcetto, halting them all in their tracks and nearly causing her and the suit of armour to come tumbling off Roa’s shoulders; the hyper alert Chimera sniffing the air like the bloodhound he was related to.

“I can smell something on the air; something… Alchemical…”

He continued, the words putting her hackles on the rise as he said them.

“Is it ahead..?”

Asked Martel; the girl already poising herself for a fight.

“No. Smells like it’s coming from the Nest…”

He replied, still sniffing the air as if it could give him a full report.

“I think the Boss might be in trouble…”

He said, and instantly him and Roa snapped into action; Roa putting the suit of armour down to follow his friends.

“Watch the kid..!”

He said as the three of them stampeded back the way they came, leaving her and the kid unattended, whether she liked it or not.

—————————————————————

When she woke up in the earliest hours of the next morning, Jean was still asleep; the pretty blonde snoring loudly as he drooled into the pillow, the sight ugly to anyone else, but she; she found it endearing.

He looked so carefree and happy; the boy’s soft nature multiplied tenfold when even his concern for her couldn’t get in the way.

Part of her wanted to reach out and touch him; to run her fingers through his soft blonde hair and her mouth over those broad shoulders, but he was sleeping now and she didn’t have it in her heart to disturb his rest.

So instead, she got up very carefully and slowly, having to perform some kind of gymnastics to climb over his sleeping form to the other side of the bed and the floor. 

She gathered her trousers and underwear, dressing herself in the pitch black, before pulling on her shoes, not risking tying the laces and waking him.

Then, without so much as a sound, she left, leaving the young Sergeant with sweet dreams of kisses and violet eyes as she kept the doorknob turned so it wouldn’t even click when it closed.

She then made the short walk back to her room, her mind hazy with visions of soft blonde hair, bright blue eyes and plains of chiselled muscle.

When she reached her door she frisked herself for her key, expecting to find it hidden away in one of the many pockets of her combat pants, only to come up empty.

She was sure she took it with her when she went into the office yesterday; she’d even put it on her desk when she and Havoc went to do the coffee ru-

Shit! She’d left it in the office!

Still; it was still early if the low level of the sun outside was anything to go by. She could sneak into the office, grab her keys and go without anyone being the wiser.

The last thing she wanted to explain to her superiors was why she hadn’t been in her room for the entire night.

She briskly made her way to the office, cursing herself for being so foolish and childishly eager to leave it behind for the sake of seeing the Sergeant.

She hadn’t even meant to stay the night, and yet here she was doing the walk of shame in yesterday’s fatigues, the smell of cigarettes and booze clinging to her like a cheap perfume, the now crusty remnants of Jean’s spend feeling uncomfortable between her thighs.

The first thing she was going to do when she got back to her quarters was have a shower so she didn’t smell like the inside of an ash tray.

She hurried into the office, making a beeline for her desk, which seemed to have been cleared by the janitors.

She began routing through the drawers, hoping they hadn’t brought her key into lost and found, because that was a whole other walk she didn’t want to take.

“Good morning; Corporal Marauder…”

Greeted the unexpected voice of her Captain; the man casting a shadow in the doorway that felt like that if death.

“You’re up very early…”

He remarked, taking in her disheveled appearance and distinct smokey smell with veiled disapproval.

“As are you Sir…”

She pointed out, also noticing his equally scruffy appearance; the presence of day old stubble on his cheeks and the wildness of his hair giving him away.

“I’m always up at this hour…”

He informed her; though she wondered if that was true considering the giant mug of coffee in his hands and the dark bags under his eyes.

“Had trouble sleeping..?”

She asked with a small smile; eyes following him as he made his way over to his desk, feigning innocence despite knowing her and Havoc had only been a few doors down, and were definitely loud enough to be heard.

“Evidently…”

He muttered, beginning to flick through some old reports on his desk with apparent interest.

“Is there a reason you’re here so early..?”

He asked; because of course he’d be there! It was his office!

“No; I just thought I left something behind last night…”

She shook her head, deciding that the longer she stayed here and tried to avoid his penetrating stare, the more she risked exposing where she’d really been.

“But I’ll just get going…”

She began to leave, deciding it wouldn’t be so bad to knock on Havoc’s door and finish the night where she’d started.

The Sergeant sure as hell would be pleased.

“You best not forget your keys; Corporal…”

Mentioned Mustang, stopping her in her tracks, and over her shoulder she could see them dangling from his fingers like evidence from a crime, which really they were.

“I can’t imagine how you got into your room last night without them…”

He pondered; though she could already tell he knew exactly where she’d spent her night.

“I imagine there’s an interesting story there. Maybe one day you’ll be obliged to share it…”

He finished, and she could feel the tension in her shoulders; the expectation for punishment or at least a lecture.

Fraternising within the ranks was strictly forbidden, and copulation even more so.

She guessed it was to stop misuse of power for obvious reasons, but Jean really wasn’t that much more senior than her, and her sleeping with him had been an entirely voluntary arrangement.

“Thank you; Sir.”

She managed, taking her keys from him, and for a moment their fingers touched; a sharp jolt shooting up her spine from her stomach, though from nerves or something else she didn’t know.

She then briskly made to leave, deciding next time she’d definitely risk staying in the Sergeant’s room if it meant she avoided situations like this.

“Tell Sergeant Havoc; I have an assignment to discuss with him when you next see him…”

He said, and she made sure not to let her step falter, already well aware that the Captain knew exactly what was going on here.

For adult cons and juvenile delinquents alike, the pre-Code prison film presumed institutional injustice as a matter of course and redress by insurrection as an inalienable right. The advertising campaigns underscored the tyranny of the system and the raw brutality inflicted upon the inmates. “Sugar coated? Hell, no! It’s real!” screamed the ads for Hell’s Highway (1932). “Brutal and true! The clank of leg irons! The swish of the snake whip! The crack of rifle shots aimed at the men with targets on their backs! You will ask, ‘Can this be America?’ ”

Thomas Doherty, Pre-Code Hollywood: Sex, Immorality, and Insurrection in American Cinema, 1930–1934

Context: The most horrible thing to come out of the Hays Code was that it effectively banned films like these, films that expose and unambiguously condemn systemic corruption and injustice. Prison films didn’t make anything up, they didn’t need to exaggerate. In the 1930s, prisons were really hell, floggings were par for the course, chain gangs were a thing, using slave labour was a thriving business, convicts were strung up in sweatboxes and left to fucking die. American cinema showed that, for a while, and then it stopped. Prison reform didn’t touch the South at all, and it was business as usual. The next time a film would honestly show and actually condemn the prison system would be in 1967 with Cool Hand Luke, when the damn Code had relaxed. A whole generation later. And chain gangs were STILL a thing, as were floggings, slave labour, and sweatboxes.

Now it’s 2019 and chain gangs have gone, but slave labour is still a thing in all but name, corporal punishment happens all the time but disguised and with more modern equipment, and solitary confinement, the worst torture you can inflict on a human being, is completely arbitrary and can last for months, years, decades. Three years ago, an American activist was explaining to German friends how the demands of the 2016 prison strike included “reduce solitary to no more than a decade”, and the Germans started laughing. It wasn’t callousness, it wasn’t even black humour, the kind that helps you cope with some horror by laughing defiantly to its face. It was genuine bewilderment: REDUCE solitary confinement to a DECADE? Surely, that must be a joke, right? Right?

On the positive impact of creativity on woman’s mental health: a reflection.

This year sees the 40th anniversary of Clean Break and Southall Black Sisters, organisations that seek to empower women who have experienced disadvantages, through creativity and self–care.

On 15 May speakers from both organisations will join us in a panel, Clean Break & Southall Black Sisters @ 40: Activism, Women & Power. Chaired by our Dr Farah Karim-Cooper we will explore the themes of justice facing women, the current context and the strategies both organisations have adopted to affect change and reclaim power.

In this blog, one of Clean Break’s current Members[i], Beverly, reflects on her experiences, and the ways in which Clean Break’s Members Programme has contributed to her wellbeing, healing and self-care.

About Clean Break

Clean Break changes lives and minds through theatre – on stage, in prison and in the community. It produces ground-breaking plays with women writers and actors at the heart of its work. Founded in 1979 by two women prisoners who believed that theatre could bring the hidden stories of imprisoned women to a wider audience, it is still the only theatre company of its kind remaining true to these roots; inspiring playwrights and captivating audiences with the company’s award winning plays on the complex theme of women and crime.

Clean Break uses theatre to keep the subject of women’s criminalisation on the cultural radar, helping to reveal the damage caused by the failures of the system. Through its unique repertory of new plays and its’ participatory model, it raises difficult questions, inspires debate, and helps to effect profound and positive change in the lives of women with experience of the criminal justice system.

How has Clean Break had an impact on your life?

I still feel and carry numerous treasures in my heart, accumulated over the three (almost four) years l have been taking part in classes and workshops at Clean Break. In sickness and in health, as a student initially and now as a Member. Yes, in sickness and in health, we are committed to one another's betterment, through creatively supportive means.

My first year at Clean Break was purely about learning and re-learning self-care, and putting what l learnt into action. l am now, as l was then, encouraged, praised and thanked, not only by members of staff, but also by Women taking part in classes. And their words feel genuine.

It took some time, but l did begin again to believe 'This is what l deserve.' I had come to Clean Break because l was broken, internally and externally. I came across that years’ booklet[ii] advertising all the creative and healing wonders that were available back then, and knew l needed and deserved the self-care options. I didn't know if l could locate any inner resolve, or the courage to face the possibility of another rejection. I did say l was broken. Thankfully courage and need led me to self-refer, and after an interview l was accepted, as a human being as well as a student. This experience of not being judged negatively alone has been the foundation for my present and my future.

How has Clean Break has had an impact on your wellbeing?

No matter what one’s state of health, (that’s emotional psychological spiritual physical financial – I am still so grateful for fares and lunch[iii]), being with Women who want to create art as part of their healing and sharing lives, definitely has the most positive impact on all the Women's lives. I did move on from - and took with me, what l needed -  the Self-care and Self-Development courses -  rejuvenated, and even more curious to know for myself what went on in 'Introduction to Drama,' 'Performance Level 1' and 'Performance Level 2.' I found out! - Lots of hard work made easier with laughter, and a level of inclusion (daily) that l still truly appreciate, and try to live by.  

My very first ‘Writers Circle’ participation led to professional actors bringing to life my words and my scene, set in the Perthshire woods!! I was there, we were all there.  I could not remember having a feeling like it before or since. I did/we did that.  One of the actresses further encouraged me afterwards by telling me she had felt what l had felt. It was pure magic.

Because of these shared successes, which l can see now are validations of my burgeoning growth in becoming more of a human being and as an artist, l have auditioned for roles and not been accepted, and l have experienced the opposite. Actively taking part in Clean Break's 'Making Choices' with each rejection and acceptance l eventually saw the opportunity to really choose my response to each outcome, and to own my feelings.

What are your hopes for the future?

This is Clean Break’s 40th year of being. I know our futures are entwined for eternity. I hope to see Members who are ready willing and able fully integrated in the company's artistic presence in the UK and abroad. We have a unique and valuable approach to fully living life and we need to be out sharing it. The wider world is waiting for us.

Can you leave us with a positive message you would like to share?

Never forget that at your core there are treasures that are meant to be mined, brought up to the light, and shared, so that you and everyone you share your environment with, can experience the true treasures of life. I aim to do this daily.

Clean Break continues its 40th anniversary year following the success of its Spring season, which opened with the sold-out run of Inside Bitch at the Royal Court Theatre. Its second season of work includes:

The launch of Rebel Voices, an anthology of 40 monologues for women by women, from across 40 years of Clean Break, published by Methuen (May)

Sweatbox, the revival of Chloë Moss’ play performed in a prison van at Chichester Festival Theatre and travelling across the UK (from June)

Plays by Sonya Hale and Natasha Marshall at HighTide Festival (September)

The full-length premiere of [BLANK], a new play by Alice Birch, a Donmar Warehouse and Clean Break co-production (October-November)

A series of talks and events featuring conversations with Clean Break’s Founders, Southall Black Sisters, Deborah Coles and Sonali Naik QC.

[i] Member: A woman attending Clean Break’s onsite Members Programme for women with experience of the criminal justice system and women at risk of entering it because of drug/alcohol use and/or mental health needs.

[ii] Years booklet: This refers to Clean Break’s annual prospectus detailing the full year of courses and qualifications that women could enrol onto.

Sky One Sci-Fi Intergalactic: ‘It’s a Road Movie Through Space’

https://ift.tt/3szZNVF

The time is February 2020. The place? Manchester’s Space Studios, on the extraordinary set of Intergalactic, Sky’s new sci-fi drama series. From an immersive set, cramped within the bowels of a prison ship, to concept art of stunning sci-fi landscapes, there’s nothing to remind us of a mundane present that will, only a month later, come to seem like something of a lost utopia.

Well, almost nothing. The screensaver on one of the ship’s computers bears the logo of Her Majesty’s Government. Is time travel involved, then? Nope. It’s a relic from previous work on Cobra, the Sky political drama about the collapse of British society in the aftermath of a disaster. Oddly fitting, really…

Mercifully, we come back to the future. First things first, though: this isn’t the galaxy as we know it. “We are set 150 years in the future,” explains producer Iona Vrolyk. “A meteorite has come from outer space that’s landed on Earth, bringing with it an element called new aurum, which makes something that’s currently impossible possible: intergalactic travel. There has been an ecological collapse on Earth, and with the arrival of this new element and being able to go out into the galaxies, all of the nations on Earth came together to form one global authority called the Commonworld, which was set up to revive planet Earth. So humanity’s gone off to the other planets and galaxies and has colonised, but the overriding message of and reason behind that is to bring things back and to be able to rehabilitate Earth. But, in 150 years, there’s been some corruption within that global authority.”

As any fan of the genre will agree, science fiction stands or falls on the quality of its ideas. Lucky, then, that they’ve got showrunner Julie Gearey at the helm. The creator of Prisoners’ Wives is, as Vrolyk notes, the ideal choice for a series that follows a motley crew of female prisoners on a hijacked transport ship, fleeing from an authoritarian society as they forge new bonds and strive for freedom.“She’s a brilliant character writer, and she always innately puts women and women’s stories at the front of her shows.”

That psychological depth and intensity is at the heart of Intergalactic. As Vrolyk puts it, new worlds are found through the characters as they make their way through stories built around “a very mythic structure” of escape and adventure. Producer Simon Maloney’s keen to highlight this hard-edged realism.“One of the things that Julie and Iona have put in that I really love is that if somebody gets shot in episode one, that scar stays with them the whole way through the show! The ship, the Hemlock, has degraded through the shoot itself, as it’s got gradual nicks and marks from camera people and being shot at, and that only adds to the patina of the show. Although it’s shot in this incredible world that’s been created, it’s got a real kind of humility and grittiness.”

The best deaths in Curfew

By Joshua Winning

There’s more than a hint of the Nostromo in the transport ship’s grungy corridors, and the comparison to the 1979 classic, Alien, doesn’t faze Vrolyk. “It’s an old reference, but why not? I mean, Ridley Scott’s a genius…The original design of the Hemlock was a prison transporter ship. This is like a sweatbox for an intergalactic age. The thought behind it was, what’s going to be the most practical design for it? We didn’t want to design anything just because it would look cool. Humans will still be humans in 150 years. They’re still going to need tables, they’re not going to reinvent things they don’t need to reinvent. Also, in an age where there’s been ecological collapse on Earth, we made a decision with the design that humans were putting all of their efforts into going out into the galaxy and bringing things back. It was about being really practical. We were constantly asking questions like, “What’s its purpose? Why is it there?”

“I think a lot of science fiction can be quite shiny, quite metallic, with long corridors, and we consciously, from the beginning, said that we wanted this to feel more organic: to use shape, texture and colour an awful lot.”

Even the prisoners’ uniforms were visually significant, with Vrolyk and the art team asking themselves why inmates in US jails wear that distinctive orange. “It’s because of the visibility, so we went for a very striking turquoise and bright yellow prison uniform to try and make sure that we were bringing colour to the piece.”

Maloney highlights the contrast between the functional interiors and the incredible galaxy beyond, which evokes the sweeping vistas created by Ralph McQuarrie for the original Star Wars trilogy. “The landscape has gone big, shot in Valencia. The science park there looks completely unworldly, which has translated to give [the show’s] New London that feel. Then in episode three, there’s a sequence in some underground relief motorways that run underneath Madrid, an incredible structure. The different planets we visit in the course of the series feel like they have huge scale and colour and attention to detail, which is a really nice counterbalance to the functionality of the Hemlock.”

“We’ve got an incredible production designer, a guy called Mark Geraghty, who’s been building worlds. Quite often, we go out and find a location, but you have to adapt it so much that in the end, it’s just better if Mark builds it! There’s an action sequence at the end of episode five – we looked and looked and looked for a location for a snowy planet.” They “snowed up” a house but ended up building a set for the action sequence itself. “It’s a constant battle between letting Mark go,” Maloney says with a laugh, “and things that we can find on location.”

As for the nuts and bolts of this brave new world, they haven’t tried to reinvent the wheel, as Vrolyk emphasises. “Guns still have bullets! Dr Maggie Aderin-Pocock, who’s a BBC presenter and an eminent astrophysicist, has helped us with the research on the show. One of the things when Julie and I first sat down to do this was that yeah, we love watching sci-fi, but we’ve never actually worked on it.”

Their scientific adviser has been a treasure and was thanked with a well-deserved cameo in some “archive” footage that features in the show. “She’s been amazing and phenomenally helpful in terms of coming up with science fiction at the heart of our show that, whilst it’s obviously fiction, [ensures] that, if this element existed, it’d be consistent with the rules of science. The way we travel intergalactically in our show is through something called the Alcubierre drive. That’s named after [theoretical physicist] Miguel Alcubierre who’s come up with the theory that, if one could generate negative mass, it could be possible without defying the laws of relativity to travel intergalactically.”

Ultimately, though, it’s all about the characters, and their journey’s become more relatable than ever. As they run for freedom in the face of overwhelming odds, we’ll be cheering them on. In our world or in theirs, it’s time for a fresh start.

HMP life in British prisons. In the sweatbox in the prison transport van. Very small and cramped in those narrow locked cubicles in the van they keep you in whilst in transport.

Blog post - Week 5

Who are the company and what are the companies aims?

The company is called ‘Clean Break’ and is a women’s theatre company that aims to change lives and minds, on stage, in prison and in the community. Clean Break hold theatre workshops and projects in prisons and communities which aim to build confidence, resilience and wellbeing. The company aim to transform the lives of women who have experienced the criminal justice system or who are at risk of entering it.

What has been said about them?

Below are some of the quotes that can be found in responsive to Clean Breaks work and performance.

“Fiercely impressive and powerfully intimate” (The Times on Pest)

“Like so much of this phenomenal company's activity, it's vital, humane work with real theatrical heft.” (The Stage on Sweatbox)

“A moving work of unmistakable integrity and not to be missed.” (The Observer on House + Amongst The Reeds)

“The performances are beautifully pitched, with a rare ease and naturalism. Hims’s writing, too, really shines” (Time Out on Billy the Girl)

“Mesmerising, emotionally astute, lyrical...a powerful gesture.” (Time Out on [BLANK])

Who is their audience(s)?

The members programme is available to women aged 17 and above who have experienced the criminal justice system or are at risk of offending. The company perform to a variety of audiences touring the UK, Europe and the US. The theatre spaces include mainstream theatres, community centres, art institutions, conferences and educational institutions.

Aesthetic: the style of events they create?

Clean Break offer workshops and opportunity for performance which is underpinned by comprehensive support. Their work is stylised to raise difficult questions, inspire debates and help to create positive change.

Ethics: the risks, trust, sharing and caring of participants?

The material that is used is often ‘totally personal’, based on the individuals experience within the company. This can cause some issues in terms of ethics, as the individuals must be 100% comfortable and willing to consent to the material being used. The members programme is a small group of people who share a trustful bond, it is a safe space in which stories can be shared with no negative consequences. The aims of the project have all of the participants best interests at the heart.

Essay I: Ohio State Reformatory

The Ohio State Reformatory was built in 1861 as a Union training camp during the Civil War. It wasn’t until 1896 that the Ohio State Reformatory officially turned into its final use as a Intermediate Penitentiary (a place for men exiting the Boys Industrial School (juvenile detention) and before they would go to the State Penitentiary). It would be a place for younger first time offenders which over the years changed into a maximum security facility. The building was originally designed by Levi T. Scofield who used three distinct architectural styles; Victorian Gothic, Richardsonian Romanesque, and Queen Anne. He used these styles in the hopes the prisoners would be reborn into the spiritual world. Even though this is what Scofield was hoping, in retrospect those styles are obscure and intimidating today. It’s a dark castle like structure that holds one of the largest if not the largest free standing steel cell blocks in the world, it is an imposing place to say the least, not as welcoming and hopeful looking as Scofield thought it would be. The building still stands and is getting slowing preserved as a museum that puts the ghost stories front a center. That, and Shawshank Redemption was filmed there.

When looking at Sigmund Freud’s, The Uncanny the word uncanny in German means un-homely, not of the home, unfamiliar. Prison is an uncanny place, in that prisoners are brought to a place where they don’t know and have not choice in how their life is run. It’s a place for the  oppressed like many other haunted places like insane asylums, castles, and battlegrounds.The haunting of this space directly reflect how we treat people that need help especially in a facility that was supposed to be for young first time offenders.  The conditions of the reformatory in statements by inmates where horrible; rats, inedible food and sickness was rampant from almost the beginning. The space and people of authority with in it are there for one purpose to control those who have been thrown away by society. All the haunting come back to this no matter how these deaths came to be it reflects the treatment they endured at the Ohio State Reformatory. Leading to these places being perceived or actually haunted.

A prison is a place where every inmate follows the same daily routine, has the same haircut, and wears the same outfit. This is the idea of a western self, that of freedom of space and choice being stripped from the inmate. The prison is a one sided community, where the guards hold all the power. Guards take advantage of the prisoners and this leads to a few of the ghosts that supposedly haunt the Ohio State Reformatory. The one of the most famous from the prison is the ghost of a fourteen year old boy who was beaten to death at the reformatory. Another are the stories of African Americans who were certainly treated differently by guards then white prisoners. The biggest difference was they were put into “sweatboxes,” which were confined spaces in which inmates were punished or tortured with conditions of extreme heat and dehydration. Some inmates died from these types of torture and there are about two hundred bodies buried in the prison cemetery of inmates that died at the hands of guards, other inmates, in humane treatment, and themselves. As Michel Foucault stated “There, the religious and moral milieu was imposed from without in such a way that madness was controlled, not cured” (Foucault 244)  In the prison the moral milieu was cultural nature of fear the guards used to not help the inmates to have a better life but, to control them and keep them within the prison walls. The stripping of the western self through fear  and being forced in a space leads to inmates spirits haunting the prison after their death it’s a way of gaining back their lost control and freedoms.

The violence from inmate on inmate attacks where just a gruesome, in one instance the ghost of a murdered inmate still haunts solitary confinement. The story goes two inmates where put into a cell fit for maybe one person. By the end of their time in solitary, only one prisoner was remaining alive. In this case the murdered inmate, haunts that one cell in solidarity confinement. With this haunting the inmate finally regains that western self he has so desired to have back after losing it due to the prison community. The ghost now is back to having control over the space he lost his life in. Again regaining pieces of that western self that he had lost being locked up in the first place.

When the inmates get the chance to maybe regain that control they have and regain their control over their time they take action. In one incident a guard was beaten to death with an iron rod during an escape attempt, two inmates were convicted of first degree murder and given the electric chair. In this instance it is the guard that walks the halls and does the haunting, since in that instance the people he was supposed to have control over, saw a glimpse of gaining that control back and took action. The guard lost his advantage and in turn his control of the inmates leading to his ghost haunting the hall in which he died in. 

One of the most gruesome instances was that of a man who killed himself in cell thirteen. This inmate stole flammable supplies from the art room, poured it all over him and lit himself on fire. By the time guards could get to him his skin was falling off in giant chunks. Now that prison cell is now haunted by him. This space had taken everything from him and without his life, death couldn’t be much worse. Killing himself gave him that control back, taking his own life was a way of finally making a major decision in his life. Even though he gained his control backs, his ghost was forever stuck in the cell, still not having the freedom the western self also so desires. Why it’s possible that this ghost more than others shows its self-way more often.

These and the many other stories from the Ohio State Reformatory don’t really tell the whole story of these men who died. It shows only a short window of there lives. People don’t care in fact they like not know more or less then the story that created the ghost. Within Sigmund Freud’s “The Uncanny,” he discusses a German psychiatrist named Ernst Jentsch, who said, “One of the surest devices for producing slightly uncanny effects through story telling is to leave the reader wondering whether a particular figure is a real person or an automaton” (Freud 135)  The stories from prison are diluted via the ghost stories. These men most who died in horrible ways are now only remembered through folk lore instead of the real men who died. Even in death these men lose some control, maybe not over space but, over their story.

Walking into 42s, a spiralling staircase that your shoes stick to like chewing gum. Ques that never end of people in search of their friends, jaws swinging, a way to sneak past the bouncer. The tunnel is a trap for anybody who isn’t all there as the rainbow led lights chase each other to the end leading towards thee biggest sweatbox holding all the secrets parents don’t want to know. The red booths are an attempt to add a sophisticated nightclub seating area but when the lights come on there is sick, people and red stripe covering the red leather. No corner is empty filled with paraphernalia and actions that need to be kept for the bedroom. The lights turn all white to blue. The toilets are on par with prison conditions, scratched messages into the back of doors, mirrors are useless you cant see fuck all and you know there is no use because upon entering all your makeup has sweated down your face making you realise why there are so many bucket hats. At the end the intoxicated crowd chant songs and kick whatever isnt attached to the floor and walls like animals that really shouldn’t be allowed onto the streets of Manchester.

Bantayan island

  My Malapaqua visit was made much more pleasant by conversations with the manager, an intelligent and attractive woman in her 40′s. She was self taught in the hospitality industry, and lead her team with professional standards that gave the resort its high quality. I liked her, and if I were 20 years younger would have asked her out to lunch.

Bit shaky on how to get to Bantayan, but the Bangka left on time (packed) and nothing broke. They has a much wider gangplank, and I was able to carry my own bags in a downward rush to the foredeck. “Porters” swarmed the boat in Maya and tourists paid them to take their bags up the ramp. I leapt for the shore and talked a van drivers assistant down 30 pesos for a ride to the Bantayan crossroads. He scuppered himself stuffing 4 people into three seats and then not having a place to ride. He was left behind. I liked the scenery of North Cebu, seaside villages, rolling farmland(mostly sugar cane), nice vistas across valleys to the distant sea. It felt low key, not overcrowded, rural. Rather anxious about the transfer point since I knew neither the distance or time, but the driver remembered me and I hopped off at a y junction. Assured that the local bus would be much cheaper, I haggled a tricycle to 70 pesos  on the condition that he could pick up other passengers(found none) and springlessly wanged away down the cement road.  More flat land in fields, and a towering 15 story building far off in the distance (farm housing/ prison/ factory?), then freewheeling down a steep hill into port. As usual no signage and I pulled a barricade apart( the security guard said to) and backdoored to the ticket stand. As usual there was a port fee(10pesos), presumably to pay the fee collector, and an “environmental fee” and another port fee on the landing side. All these bites gave little tickets to justify the squeeze. The “Ferry” was a 150 foot landing craft with passenger seats at the rear. Only one half hour late leaving, which the deck hands spent desultorily painting the bulwarks -Dip roller in open gallon of deep green stinky paint, pause to check cell phone in other hand, listlessly raise roller dripping most of the paint into the sea, stroke on a strip, check cell phone, go into trance, repeat, averaging one roll per minute. The cabin stunk of paint fumes and was well heated by the exhaust stack. Only a 1 hour trip,only 4 cars, and 50 passengers. Crew of 20. The competing company has the opposite  runs, so since there is only one dock means that all delays are shared equally. Landed on beautiful Bantayan with miles of pure white sand and a low rise town, and rolled my pack to the quaranteen booth. Walked across the soggy treated green mats that guarded  the island from swine disease, and filled out forms attesting to not having been to china, accompanied by a thermal temperature test. Finally on the street and i got a tricycle to Stevrena cottages, a main street house with bamboo shacks in back. An online purchase(cheap) i got a steaming hot fan room with a view of the street and traffic noise. Bare room, but the first private room I,ve had in a 6 weeks, for $15 can. Cold shower, walked the strip to a food court where the restaurant I chose gave 2 dishes for the price of one, and ate both half sized plates of fish fillets. Lets see if the pizzas are minis?

   I looked up some alternative hotels and hired a motorcycle driver to go see them, though he quickly proved that he had’nt a clue where they were. We backstreeted, sort of a town tour, and there are hundreds of little hotels, none of which were on my list. Returned home, looked again and booked three nights in a motelish looking place that for the same price as this noisy sweatbox , has Ac, private toilet, decor, even a chair! I’ll give it 3 nights, and see. No one seems to know about tours and attractions, has a map, or has been to anyplace Lonely Planet mentions. I,ll rent a motorcycle tommorrow and wing it. The island is flat, 10 K by 5 K and I can only get lost!

Likewise workwear. – William Gibson

• Change is a sheep in wolf’s clothing – Darren LaCroix • Clothes are nothing more than a fig leaf. And the bodies beneath are just another layer of clothing, an outfit of flesh with an impractically thin leather exterior, in various shades of pink, yellow and brown. The souls alone are real. Seen in this way, there can never be any such thing as social unease or shyness or embarrassment. All you need do is greet your fellow soul. – Michel Faber • Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society. – Mark Twain • Clothing has a great deal to do with the attitudes and energy that others direct towards you. I favor the chic, and tend to avoid the trendy. I think that it’s good to be chic when possible because it is more inaccessible. – Frederick Lenz • Clothing is art. It’s an expression of how you feel. I think that it’s not so much a question of a certain style or designer, but of finding the type of clothing that works well for you. – Frederick Lenz • Clothing sales plummet, rent delinquencies mount and even grocery sales shrink as gamblers, having tapped out their entertainment budgets, dip into dollars set aside for necessities – John Warren Kindt • C’m’on lefties! Admit that Trump has been very tough on China. He has been especially tough on Chinese kids who slave away in sweatboxes, making his clothing lines. – Michael R. Burch • Curiously, ghosts are rarely if ever seen in the nude. They appear fully clothed, and may even change clothing on subsequent appearances. They may change their form, to appear as they looked at different stages of their lives. Unless someone out there knows of an extoplasmic department store on the spiritual plane, we have to wonder, “Where do the clothes and accessories come from? – Loyd Auerbach • Customers want good value, but they care more than ever how food and clothing products are made. – Stuart Rose • Definitely with the fit of clothing – how it really depends on mere centimeters and millimeters of difference in terms of how lengths can make such a big impact on your shape. I learned how to incorporate a cute peter pan collar on a dress and not make it look juvenile. – Lily Collins • Don’t forget that costumes, like dreams, are symbolic communication. Dreams teach us that a language for everything exists – for every object, every color worn, every clothing detail. Hence, costumes provide an aesthetic objectification that helps to tell the character’s story. – Federico Fellini • Elegance is a question of personality, more than one’s clothing. – Jean Paul Gaultier • Even now, if I am thinking about spending a lot of money on clothing or furniture, I think ‘I can’t spend so much money on one thing; my poor old Daddy could have raised his family five years on that!’ – Dolly Parton • Evil is real – and powerful. It has to be fought, not explained away, not fled. And God is against evil all the way. So each of us has to decide where we stand, how we’re going to live our lives. We can try to persuade ourselves and wink at evil. We can say that it isn’t so bad after all, maybe even try to call it fun by clothing it in silks and velvets. We can compromise with it, keep quiet about it , and say it’s none of our business. Or we can work on God’s side, listen for His orders on strategy against the evil, no matter how horrible it is, and know that He can transform it. – Catherine Marshall • Fairest and best adorned is she Whose clothing is humility. – James Montgomery • Fashion is very much emotional. When you see it, or when you wear the right clothing, or you wear whatever, it’s supposed to make you feel something. You’re supposed to feel some type of emotion, and I feel like I try to do that when I’m on a red carpet. – Zendaya • Fear wraps our bodies in clothing, love allows us to stand naked. – Neale Donald Walsch • Five Great Habits for Better Relationships: acceptance (smile each time), appreciation (say thank you to everyone), admiration (compliment people on their appearance or clothing, etc.), approval (praise immediately, specifically and repeatedly), and attention (be a good listener). – Brian Tracy • Food, clothing and shelter — these are the basic needs. Beyond that, if you want anything, it is the beginning of self-deception. – U.G. Krishnamurti • For example, I wear clothes I buy at trendy shops because I don’t care much about clothing. If someone wants to create a trend around clothing, I’ll happily and blindly follow. – Lewis Schiff • For me, clothing is nothing without the story behind it. Everything I own evokes some kind of memory. – Rachael Taylor • For me, it’s really day to day. I don’t really plan ahead and I like to be excited about what I’m wearing. Being on the road all the time, it’s various articles of clothing that keep me inspired and feeling good. A fun or beautiful thing to wear can change your day. I think spontaneity and not adhering to any narrow styles keep me happy. – Victoria Legrand • For me, the anarchy movement is hilarious. It’s all under .org, which is of course government sponsored websites, and then they’re all wearing corporate clothing from the Dr.Martin’s to the back sacks and the cell phones, they’re all flying around on corporate jets and using corporate highways. Very anarchistic! – John Lydon • For over forty years, in a spirit of love, members of the Church have been counseled to be thrifty and self-reliant; to avoid debt; pay tithes and a generous fast offering; be industrious; and have sufficient food, clothing, and fuel on hand to last at least one year. Today there are compelling reasons to reemphasize this counsel. – Ezra Taft Benson • Gamblers spend 10 percent less on food; 25 percent less on clothing and 35 percent less on savings – John Warren Kindt • Gap clothing allows you to look like you’re from nowhere and anywhere. – Douglas Coupland • Giving back is the right thing to do, whether it’s donating clothing or even just a smile to someone who needs it. – Becky G • God is our clothing, that wraps, clasps and encloses us so as to never leave us. – Julian of Norwich • Have you ever known an alcoholic, a cigarette smoker, or a heroin user to be rational when it came to alcohol, cigarettes, or heroin? Of course not. And there is NO such thing as a rational – or ethical – meat, dairy, egg and honey-eater when it comes to animal issues and whether humans should be enslaving, murdering and eating animals, or using them as test subjects, clothing and entertainment. – Gary Yourofsky • I actually love modeling clothing and showing women that clothing and style can help your confidence shine. – Ashley Graham • I always just wanted to be a movie actress, like Lily Tomlin or Ruth Gordon. I just imagined myself being in a movie, wearing stylish women’s clothing the way I saw Amy Irving wearing it. – Jenny Slate • I am never at my best in the early morning, especially a cold morning in the Yorkshire spring with a piercing March wind sweeping down from the fells, finding its way inside my clothing, nipping at my nose and ears. – James Herriot • I am the largest market shareholder of clothing in the UK and I am not a destination shop for food. If the clothing market is affected – and it has been – and I hold my market share mathematically, then fine, I am doing no worse than the market is doing, which is exactly the case, but I’m losing revenue. – Stuart Rose • I am very much a person who appreciates perennial things. Things like a Lacoste shirt, a Clarks desert boot, Persol sunglasses and Vans shoes that have been the same forever. There are certain things that once you find it, you like it and it’s done. I like Italian clothing, like suits from Battistoni and I have a shirt by Piero Albertelli. – Roman Coppola • I believe in the 12 Jewels and try to provide my childrem with them. That is Knowledge, Wisdom, Understanding, Freedom, Justice, Equality, Food, Clothing, Shelter, Love, Peace and Happiness. – RZA • I can still do clothing, movies, cartoons. I’mma get mine regardless. Whether I put an album out or not, I’m still gonna see a check. – Beanie Sigel • I cannot believe that our factory system is the best mode by which men may get clothing. The condition of the operatives is becoming every day more like that of the English; and it cannot be wondered at, since, as far as I have heard or observed, the principal object is, not that mankind may be well and honestly clad, but, unquestionably, that the corporations may be enriched. – Henry David Thoreau • I design for real people. I think of our customers all the time. There is no virtue whatsoever in creating clothing or accessories that are not practical. – Giorgio Armani • I do a lot of vintage, of course, but I really feel so particular about clothing. I think it stems from acting, like if I’m not wearing the proper shoes for a character I feel totally off. – Morgan Saylor • I do enjoy wearing Japanese and Italian clothing. I also enjoy my blue jeans or tennis shorts and running shoes. I like driving a Porsche because it is an elegant machine and it is a very beautiful experience to drive it. It’s magnificently made. – Frederick Lenz • I do love a bit of fashion. I grew up around a lot of it as my mum and dad had clothing stores so my mum was always designing a lot, and I definitely had that as an influence. – Leona Lewis • I don’t find glamour and clothing relevant. – Tea Leoni • I don’t have a problem with my body. I’m not just going to strip off all my clothing, but if the part calls for it and I don’t think there’s any way round, I’m absolutely fine. – Keira Knightley • I don’t know what it is about the shower that generates creative thoughts. Maybe it’s the hot water. Maybe it’s being unencumbered even by the restriction of clothing. – Lyle Lovett • I don’t see how an article of clothing can be indecent. A person, yes. – Robert A. Heinlein • I feel like clothing is very much emotional, you know? – Zendaya • I find men’s clothing fascinating because sometime between, say, 1930 and 1936 a handful of basic shapes were created and still prevail as a sort of scale of expression, with which every man can project his own personality and his own dignity. – Yves Saint Laurent • I grew up in a family where our mother made our clothing. We didn’t have a lot of money, so we learned how to scrimp, and we learned how to invent and to create. And those are learned skills. – Marcy Kaptur • I had such a distaste for ’70s clothing. So, the ’90s were a rough period for me because I got made fun of for wearing what they used to call “pegged pants.” Now they call them “skinny jeans.” – Justin Theroux • I have a line of clothing at J.C. Penney’s… and I’m lucky to be affiliated. – Diahann Carroll • I have many creative outlets. I sing, I like music, I like art, I paint, I draw. I like buying art. I read a lot, too. I love books. And I’m working on a clothing line, too. – Evan Ross • I just think this whole thing about not wearing anything twice, I just don’t understand it. I think things should be worn. You should bond with your clothing. It should be yours. – Alexandra Kotur • I know not what you believe of God, but I believe He gave yearnings and longings to be filled, and that He did not mean all our time should be devoted to feeding and clothing the body – Lucy Stone • I majored in fashion design in school, and I have always wanted to design my own line of clothing, jewelry, and stuff like that; so this was just a step for me in that direction. – Diana Ross • I mean gifts and trips and clothing and all sorts of things, and now he Tim Kaine is running for vice president. I don’t get what’s going on here. He was not a good choice for her. – Donald Trump • I model irregular clothing. – Jay London • I never dreamed about being an actor, because that was out of reach. Coming from a small town that was big in farming, and also big in clothing factories, you don’t dream about being a professional football player or an actor. – Herschel Walker • I realized that I wasn’t naturally born to good taste. I understand what it is, but I am happy to wear bright colors. I do have a few items of black clothing, but I think good taste and doing the same thing over and over again is what the whole art world has become. – Jim Shaw • I really like the retro look. My regular clothing, I like to always keep it classy and I like to kind of be more dressed up more of the time. I’m not really someone you see in sweatpants a lot. – Aly Raisman • I spent nearly two hours deciding on an outfit that would look as if the subject of clothing had never crossed my mind, but would in fact show off my best features and miraculously hide the extra pounds. – Rosanne Cash • I think clothing is transformative. When you put something really beautiful on, you feel something. In so many ways, were always playing a form of dress-up – its just a grown-up, much chicer version of it. Its nice to be able to be whoever you want to be. – Jason Wu • I think it’s cooler when girls have favorite pieces of clothing rather than an entirely new wardrobe every few months. – Cameron Russell • I think there’s a lot of people who are afraid to experiment with clothing because they’re afraid to get judged or ridiculed. – Ian Astbury • I want people to see the dress, but focus on the woman. – Vera Wang • I want to find a way to reach young women emotionally and also to start providing clothing for them so that they can wear the same things their thin friends can wear. I really want to do evening wear and prom dresses for these girls. – Delta Burke • I wanted Bow’s hair and makeup and clothing to look like a woman who has four children, a career, and a full life. For example, she won’t wear eyeshadow unless she’s going out. Because it takes a lot of time to put eyeshadow on. She’s a woman who has style, but it’s all about functionality – she grabs stuff from her closet. – Tracee Ellis Ross • I was lucky I survived the motorcycle accident because I – bike went under the car. I flew out about 20 or 25 feet. I didn’t have a helmet on. I hit my head on the pavement and knocked myself out, gave myself a brain concussion, screwed up my left leg. And I was – I was lucky then that I didn’t get killed because I didn’t have any protective clothing on whatsoever. And I took a pretty good beating. But, yeah, such was the nature of the day when the barber was called and Samson’s locks were trimmed. – Bruce Springsteen • I was unaware of the dispute in Brooklyn. I would never knowingly wear any clothes or support any company who produced clothing with alleged wage and labor violations. – Shakira • I was very preppy in my childhood. I also went through an anti-clothing moment where I just wanted to wear sweats because I’d just moved to Canada. My mom was always trying to get me into proper clothes, but I never wanted to wear them, and now that’s all I wear. – Jason Wu • I was writing – at least beginning to write Boston Boy and there were a lot of holes in my so-called research. I didn’t know the towns my mother and father came from in Russia. I didn’t know the name of the clothing store I went to work for when I was 11 years old. I didn’t know a lot of things. So I called for my FBI files, not expecting to have that stuff there, but I wanted to know what they had on me.But they did have the towns my mother and father lived in in Russia. They had the grocery store I worked in when I was 11 years old. – Nat Hentoff • I wear black on the outside ‘Cause black is how I feel on the inside. – Steven Morrissey • I wear everything from hip-hop baggy pants to beautiful Armani dresses. I also like to mix vintage clothing with designer pieces. – Julia Stiles • I will continue to distribute blankets, sleeping bags, warm clothing and food on a regular basis, in the hope that my modest efforts will give some comfort to those people we are able help. – Mohamed Al-Fayed • I wore a lot of vintage clothing. I dressed like a reporter, with a little card in my hat. I had these fantasies of who I wanted to be, so I’d dress like an explorer, a cowboy. I dressed up like Elton John a lot too. That was another period. – Illeana Douglas • If a man were living in isolation his income would be literally his product. Make him the monarch and owner of an island, and the fruits that he raises and the clothing that he makes constitute, in themselves, his income. This ceases to be true when trading begins. – John Bates Clark • If a woman wants to fly, first of all she must, of course, abandon skirts and don a knickerbocker uniform. – Harriet Quimby • If honor be your clothing, the suit will last a lifetime; but if clothing be your honor, it will soon be worn threadbare.- William Arnot • If my clothing does stand out, then I guess it’s a compliment, but I just wear whatever feels comfortable. – Shania Twain • If one’s life is simple, contentment has to come. Simplicity is extremely important for happiness. Having few desires, feeling satisfied with what you have, is very vital: satisfaction with just enough food, clothing, and shelter to protect yourself from the elements. – Dalai Lama • If we are to begin to try and understand life as it will be in 1960, we must begin by realizing that food, clothing and shelter will cost as little as air – John Langdon-Davies • If we have love and compassion in our hearts, then we will wholeheartedly serve those who suffer from lack of food, clothing and shelter. – Mata Amritanandamayi • If you have to ask if a clothing item is a dress or a top, it is always a top. – Tim Gunn • I’m actively looking at pilots in the very limited pilot season that is about to begin. Lots of work for my clothing line which is extremely exciting. – Alyssa Milano • I’m going forward, so my clothing line is kind of the physicalization of that. The idea of diversity, of uniqueness, of individuality – that’s what this is all about. – Zendaya • I’m just a bleeping maniac in straight clothing. There’s no reason to dress my monster up. – Glenn Frey • I’m tryin’ to build myself bigger than just Ace Hood, I’m tryin’ to build myself as a bigger brand – open up clothing lines, colognes. – Ace Hood • I’m very interested in buildings that adapt to changes in climatic conditions according to the seasons, buildings capable of responding to our physical and psychological needs in the way that clothing does. We don’t turn on the air-conditioning as we walk through the streets in high summer. Instead, we change the character of the clothing by which we are protected. Layering and changeability: this is the key. – Glenn Murcutt • In China there was once a man who liked pictures of dragons, and his clothing and furnishings were all designed accordingly. His deep affection for dragons was brought to the attention of the dragon god, and onde day a real dragon appeared before his window. It is said that he died of fright. He was probably a man who always spoke big words but acted differently when facing the real thing. – Yamamoto Tsunetomo • In Georgia, rednecks are just wolves in wolf clothing. In Detroit, you don’t know who’s a redneck until you go home and meet their parents. – Joseph Bruce • In Harlem, for instance, all of the stores are owned by white people, all of the buildings are owned by white people. The black people are just there – paying rent, buying the groceries; but they don’t own the stores, clothing stores, food stores, any kind of stores; don’t even own the homes that they live in. They are all owned by outsiders, and for these run-down apartment dwellings, the black man in Harlem pays more money than the man down in the rich Park Avenue section. – Malcolm X • In our home (for the dying at Kali Ghat) in Calcutta, there is great peace, unity and love. Many Hindu families bring food, clothing nonstop to our home for the dying. This is an act of love. I didn’t ask them. They have only heard about what I am doing and they all come. – Mother Teresa • In the beginning of the book, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, Edward is more enamored of himself than he is of anybody else. He’s a very fine rabbit; he’s been constructed incredibly well, and he has a wardrobe of amazing clothing. He’s arrogant, and he doesn’t care whether Abilene loves him or not. As the journey progresses, as he gets passed from hand to hand, he learns what it means to love. He gets more and more bedraggled, and his clothing is lost; yet he becomes finer in soul and heart than he was at the beginning of the journey. – Kate DiCamillo • In the next election, can we vote to ban those ribbon things that kind of keep clothing on hangers but really just hang out of your armpits? – Olivia Wilde • Insecurity is love dressed in a child’s clothing. – Kofi Annan • Is not the most erotic part of the body wherever the clothing affords a glimpse? – Roland Barthes • It gets boring to me when people talk about clothing brands or what boat they’re going to buy next summer. – Natassia Malthe • It is both delusional and stupid to think that clothes don’t really matter and we should all wear whatever we want. Most people don’t take clothing seriously enough, but whether we should or not, clothes do talk to us and we make decisions based on people’s appearances. – G. Bruce Boyer • It is extremely important to me that the social and environmental issues associated with the production of fashion clothing are addressed. – Bonnie Wright • It is long accepted by the missionaries that morality is inversely proportional to the amount of clothing people wore – Alex Carey • It is torment to be segregated out because of some bit of clothing that you’re wearing. – Alan Sugar • It might be said that society speaks through the clothing it wears. Through its clothing it reveals its secret aspirations and uses it, at least in part, to build or destroy its future. – Pope Pius XII • It seems the most logical thing in the world to believe that the natural resources of the Earth, upon which the race depends for food, clothing and shelter, should be owned collectively by the race instead of being the private property of a few social parasites. – Ralph Chaplin • It’s very important to have the right clothing to exercise in. If you throw on an old T-shirt or sweats, it’s not inspiring for your workout. – Cheryl Tiegs • I’ve always been the go-to girl for all of my girlfriends in terms of relationship advice or clothing advice. – Molly Ringwald • I’ve always been very interested in fashion, but it is extremely important to me that the social and environment issues associated with the production of fashionable clothing are addressed. Made-By carries out really important work in transforming the fashion industry, and I am thrilled to support the organisation and help raise awareness of these ongoing issues. – Bonnie Wright • I’ve always regarded nature as the clothing of God. – Alan Hovhaness • I’ve always thought of accessories as the exclamation point of a woman’s outfit. – Michael Kors • I’ve been offered a lot of things that celebrities do that I wouldn’t do, like perfumes, lines of clothing and this, that and the other. – Gloria Estefan • I’ve got whole years of unfortunate clothing in ’80s. – Patrick Wilson • I’ve watched towns and cities evolve and become very resilient, and fun, and unique, and prosperous on their own terms. And the secret is bridging. It’s when the local church has a fun clothing swap fundraiser with a temple, and then the next year they bring in the mosque. – Dar Williams • James Bond is quite serious about his drinks and clothing and cigarettes and food and all that sort of thing. There is nothing wry or amused about James Bond. – Ken Follett • Labels are for filing. Labels are for clothing. Labels are not for people. – Martina Navratilova • Legalize hemp and allow women to grow it and make food, clothing and housing for pennies from it and legalize marijuana too. Let women integrate their divided consciousness with a natural herb instead of doctors’ pills that kill the liver. – Roseanne Barr • Leo Tolstoy, the greatest anti-patriot of our time, defines patriotism as the principle that will justify the training of wholesale murderers; a trade that requires better equipment in the exercise of man-killing than the making of such necessities as shoes, clothing, and houses; a trade that guarantees better returns and greater glory than that of the honest workingman. – Emma Goldman • Many sisters complain that people don’t want to marry them unless they stop wearing hijab. No man is worth your hijab, and a real man wouldn’t request you to take it off in the first place. – Omar Suleiman • Many spiritual people are involved in a radical denial of what is happening. They want to transcend it, get rid of it, get out of it, get away from it. There’s nothing wrong with that feeling, but the approach doesn’t work because it’s escapism in spiritual clothing. It’s wearing spiritual clothing and spiritual concepts, but it is really no different than a drunk in the gutter who doesn’t want to feel the pain anymore. When you abide and accept everything completely and fully, you automatically go beyond. – Adyashanti • Most reporters are sheep in wolves’ clothing. – Jeffrey Klein • My brothers went to work at 12 and put themselves through school and brought the family out of ruin into food and clothing. – Mel Brooks • My diminished girth, in tailor phraseology, was hardly conceivable even by my own friends, or my respected medical adviser, until I put on my former clothing, over what I now wear, which is a thoroughly convincing proof of the remarkable change. – William Banting • My husband had a clothing store in Paris, and I had his factory make specifically for me something similar to the one I was looking for. We made it in different colours, and decided to sell them in the store…and in a day, they were sold out! This sweater became later known as the “poor boy sweater” and it ended up making the cover of Elle magazine, and in a day, I became the “Queen of knit”, without knowing anything about knitting! – Sonia Rykiel • My musical style has changed dramatically from my first album until now. That’s the real developmental shift. But my clothing has pretty much stayed the same. The important thing is to be real. – Peter Cincotti • Nancy Drew was always changing her outfits. I despised girls’ clothing, I couldn’t wait to get home from school and get out of it. The last thing I wanted to read was minute descriptions of Nancy’s frocks. – Alison Bechdel • Never relinquish clothing to a hotel valet without first specifically telling him that you want it back. – Fran Lebowitz • Never trust a man in red trousers – Mika • Never use the word “cheap”. Today everybody can look chic in inexpensive clothes (the rich buy them too). There is good clothing design on every level today. You can be the chicest thing in the world in a T-shirt and jeans — it’s up to you. – Karl Lagerfeld • No change in musical style will survive unless it is accompanied by a change in clothing style. Rock is to dress up to. – Frank Zappa • No self-respecting gay guy would have ever made some of the hair and clothing choices I am still trying to live down. – David Copperfield • Nothing to mountaineering, just a little physical endurance, a good deal of brains, lots of practice, and plenty of warm clothing. – Annie Smith Peck • Of course, clothing fashions have always been impractical, except in Tahiti. – Jacques Barzun • On occasion I have observed parents shopping to clothe a son about to enter missionary service. The new suits are fitted, the new shoes are laced, and shirts, socks, and ties are bought in quantity. I met one father who said to me, ‘Brother Monson, I want you to meet my son.’ Pride popped his buttons; the cost of the clothing emptied his wallet; love filled his heart. Tears filled my eyes when I noticed that his [the father’s] suit was old, his shoes well worn; but he felt no deprivation. The glow on his face was a memory to cherish. – Thomas S. Monson • One of the things we’re trying to do more of is not just take money from corporate partnerships, but get more involved in the business side for when I retire. So Puma are going to make me an ambassador for life. I have a clothing line coming out. I am investing a lot in housing in Jamaica, buildings for rent. – Usain Bolt • One out of forty American men wears women’s clothing. We’ve had more than forty presidents. One of these guys has been dancing around the Oval Office in a prom dress. – Allison Janney • Pope Francis seems to be a much nicer man than Pope Benedict, but I’m not sure that his views on things that really matter are all that different. Whereas Benedict was perhaps a wolf in wolf’s clothing, Francis is perhaps a wolf in sheep’s clothing. – Richard Dawkins • Real holiness has love for its essence, humility for its clothing, the good of others as its employment, and the honor of God as its end. – Nathanael Emmons • Religious strictures are often the source of attitudes toward nudity. Society urges the wearing of clothing partially as a means of controlling the powerful sexual urges that are feared will be released by nudity, causing chaotic behavior. – Patricia Garfield • Remove the heavy clothing of your self-definition. You are not woman, you are not American, you are not son, you are not spiritual seeker, executive, teacher, unemployed, you are not wounded, you are not highly respected, you are not productive, you are not blah-blah-blah-blah. – Jan Frazier • Scientists believe that the invention of clothing in Africa was a key factor in allowing our ancestors to migrate into colder climates and to spread across the globe. – Ziya Tong • Shoes and clothing damage our ability to survive naked in the wilderness. – Steve Mann • So many people have asked me how I could possibly be a role model and dress like a tramp and get implants… all I have to say is that self-esteem is how you look at yourself and I feel good enough about myself so wear that kind of clothing… the breast implant issue has nothing to do with that. – Britney Spears • So when the wolf pounces on your lamb, just ignore the pitiful bleating and remind yourself that this is a democracy, where every sheep can freely express its preference for which kind of wolf it wants to be eaten by. Many sheep, perhaps understandably, prefer a wolf in sheep’s clothing, which is after all the basic idea of democracy. So far it has worked pretty well. The wolves all agree on that, and they want to spread democracy everywhere. – Joseph Sobran • Some of us have such incredible things that can keep us from acting. We have the luxury of drinking such good wine, and having such good information at our fingertips. I can look up anything on my computer. And I can call any friend at the drop of a hat on my cell phone. And I can have beautiful clothing and great food in a world where people are being tortured. I have some responsibility for that. – Dar Williams • Someone must transform income into the food, shelter, clothing, nurture, discipline, education, minding, nursing, transportation, and emotional support that creates life outside of the office, permits survival of the race, cares for the ill and disabled, and makes life livable when we can no longer care for ourselves. – Anne-Marie Slaughter • Somewhere near you, somebody right now is trying to help the indigent and poor – providing food, shelter, clothing or simple kindness. – Tony Snow • Success follows those adept at preserving the substance of the past by clothing it in the forms of the future. – Dee Hock • Sure, I could of done it different… put my clown in a closet and dressed up in straight clothing. I could of compromised my essence, and swallowed my soul. – Wavy Gravy • Sweater, n.: garment worn by child when its mother is feeling chilly. – Ambrose Bierce • The alms given to a naked man in the street do not fulfil the obligations of the state, which owes to every citizen a certain subsistence, a proper nourishment, convenient clothing, and a kind of life not incompatible with health. – Baron de Montesquieu • The average family pays more in taxes than it spends on food, clothing, and shelter combined. – Dick Armey • The Church is the house of God. It is forbidden for men to enter with bare arms or in shorts. It is forbidden for women to enter in trousers, without a veil on their head, in short clothing, low necklines, sleeveless or immodest dresses. – Pio of Pietrelcina • The cinema that I make is a cinema about people, emotion, humanity and passion. It’s not just about what they struggle through, but what they live for. That’s what I love. The music they love, the people they love, the clothing, the hair and the life that they love – David O. Russell • The clothing is moving, the external version is moving. Whether the internal version is moving or not it is a different matter. It is good to practice Ayurveda, it is good to worship the Gods and Goddesses, it is good to do bhajans. Of course, depending on what your own personal development is, that will determine how, in what way and how well you will be able to connect to that tradition and bring it to life inside yourself. – Robert Svoboda • The clothing, the makeup, the freedom of expression in [the models’] bodies. It was Linda and Christy and Naomi at the time. So I modeled before college. – Tracee Ellis Ross • The deepest need of men is not food and clothing and shelter, important as they are. It is God. – Thomas Raymond Kelly • The difference between style and fashion is quality. – Giorgio Armani • The dress must not hang on the body but follow its lines. When a woman smiles the dress must smile with her. – Madeleine Vionnet • The fashionable woman wears clothes. The clothes don’t wear her. – Mary Quant • The finest clothing made is a person’s own skin, but, of course, society demands something more than this. – Mark Twain • The game Flights of Fancy or Reverse Strip Jump is played from as high a jumping-point as a competitor will dare. After each successful jump, the competitor is allowing to put on an article of clothing. Thirteen jumps is normally more than enough to see a competitor fully dressed for the day. – Peter Greenaway • The goal I seek is to have people refine their style through my clothing without having them become victims of fashion. – Giorgio Armani • The history of clothing practices provides guidance for fashioning a new ethic that emphasizes quality over quantity, longevity over novelty, and versatility over specialization. With such an ethic, consumers would demand a shift toward more timeless design, away from fast-moving trends. Clothes could become more versatile in terms of what they can be used for, their ability to fit differently shaped bodies and to be altered. – Juliet B. Schor • The Honorable Elijah Muhammad says that the black man in America, for the past 400 years, has been like a boy in the white man’s house, begging the white man for a job, for food, clothing and shelter. And then after the white man provides him with all of these things, he turns around and get – has the nerve to get angry at the white man when the white man tries to control his life. – Malcolm X • The immense wealth of doctrine and institutions can become a handicap if we are trying to present all of that to a person who has lost all contact with the Church and no longer knows who Jesus is. That would be like clothing a baby with one of those enormous, heavy brocaded copes that priests and bishops used to wear. Instead, it is necessary to help this person establish a relationship with Jesus. – Raniero Cantalamessa • The left’s obsession with corporations as a spawn of evil is pathological paranoia. A corporation is just one form of organizing a private business enterprise for purposes of limiting personal liability, issuing stock, filing financial reports and paying taxes. Other forms include partnerships and sole proprietorships. Are they less evil? You buy your groceries from corporations, your cars, newspapers, cellphones, clothing and exercise equipment. Your parents and children work for corporations. Are they evil? – Mike Rosen • The makeup is simply an extension of the personality and colors, clothing, makeup all express something. – Gene Simmons • The mathematician may be compared to a designer of garments, who is utterly oblivious of the creatures whom his garments may fit. To be sure, his art originated in the necessity for clothing such creatures, but this was long ago; to this day a shape will occasionally appear which will fit into the garment as if the garment had been made for it. Then there is no end of surprise and delight. – George Dantzig • The most important thing, of course, is that you should look more stunning than you have ever looked in your life. How many excuses do you have to wear a dress bigger than anyone else’s, at a party just for you, where everyone has to burst into tears from how gorgeous you look while you prance around in front of them? Remember, your lifelong happiness depends on this one article of clothing. If it doesn’t look good, you’re not a bride. You’re just some idiot in a big white thing – a color unflattering to about 93 percent of the population. – Mimi Pond • The move to tax Internet sales, clothed as a ‘fairness’ issue, is the typical ‘wolf-in-sheep’s-clothing’ ploy so often used by governments unwilling to cut expenditures to match revenues. It matters not whether its proponents have a ‘D’ or an ‘R’ after their name. It is a tax increase in either case. – Bob Barr • The noblest art is the nude. This truth is recognized by all, and followed by painters, sculptors and poets. Only the dancer has forgotten it, who should remember it, as the instrument of [the dance] art is the human body itself. – Isadora Duncan • The origins of clothing are not practical. They are mystical and erotic. The primitive man in the wolf-pelt was not keeping dry; he was saying: Look what I killed. Aren’t I the best? – Katharine Hamnett • The ravening wolves are amongst us, from our own membership, and they, more than any others, are clothed in sheep’s clothing, because they wear the habiliments of the priesthood…We should be careful of them. – J. Reuben Clark • The technology for a clothing printer exists but is not packaged in a form that would be suitable for consumer use. With the future potential of printing technology, an at-home clothing printer is a definite possibility. Our challenge was to define the experience. – Joshua Harris • The time will come when we will be obliged to depend upon our own resources; for the time is not far distant when the curtain will be dropped between us and the United States. When the time comes, brethren and sisters, you will wish you had commenced sooner to make your own clothing. I tell you, God requires us to go into home manufacture; and, prolong it as much as you like, you have got to do it. – Heber C. Kimball • The woman’s bill of rights is, unhappily, long overdue. It should have run along with the rights of man in the eighteenth century. Its drag as to time of official proclamation is a drag as to social vision. And even if equal rights were now written into the law of our land, it would be so inadequate today as a means to food, clothing and shelter for woman at large that what they would still be enjoying would be equality in disaster rather than in realistic privilege. – Mary Ritter Beard • The word “veganism” denotes a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude – as far as is possible and practical – all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of humans, animals and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals. – Donald Watson • The world over, give a guy money and it goes to drinking, gambling, and women. When you give a woman money, it goes to feeding, clothing, helping people. – Peter Buffett • There are new ways of producing food, film, clothing, and research that steer clear of using animals. Some of those products are functionally equivalent or even superior to what we’re used to. Now corporations, legislatures, and other institutions are responding, and supporting these shifts, so we’re seeing seismic changes throughout society. – Wayne Pacelle • There is a vast difference between the outward clothing of the Spirit’s power and the inward filling of the Spirit’s life. In the first, despite the power, the hidden man of the heart may remain unchanged. In the latter, that monster is dealt with. – Gene Edwards • There is increasing social concern about our use of nonhumans for experiments, food, clothing and entertainment. This concern about animals reflects both our own moral development as a civilization and our recognition that the differences between humans and animals are, for the most part, differences of degree and not of kind. – Gary L. Francione • There is no morally coherent difference between fur and other animal clothing, such as leather, wool, etc., just as there is no morally coherent distinction between meat and milk or eggs. – Gary L. Francione • There were details like clothing, hair styles and the fragile objects that hardly ever survive for the archaeologist-musical instruments, bows and arrows, and body ornaments depicted as they were worn… No amounts of stone and bone could yield the kinds of information that the paintings gave so freely – Mary Leakey • There’s enough food in this world. There’s enough housing in this world. There’s enough shelter in this world. There’s enough clothing in this world. There’s enough teachers, there’s enough universities for everybody’s needs to be met, and the reasons they aren’t is not because of lack of resources. It’s because of distribution, and that’s the politics of hate, which is why this is a movement against that. It’s a politics of love. – Rebecca Solnit • There’s no such thing as bad weather, only inappropriate clothing – Ranulph Fiennes • There’s two facets to writing a song. There’s you sitting in your room writing the sentiments of the song; the lyrics, the melody and the changes, and then there’s the part where you go into the studio and you put clothing on it. – Nuno Bettencourt • They say that the best furniture and clothing design from the ’50s and ’60s is Scandinavian or Milanese. – Christian Lacroix • Throw aside your scriptures in the Ganga and teach the people first the means of procuring their food and clothing, and then you will find time to read to them the scriptures. – Swami Vivekananda • To me, clothing is a form of self-expression – there are hints about who you are in what you wear. – Marc Jacobs • Together with the works of mercy, feeding, sheltering, and clothing our brothers, we must indoctrinate. – Dorothy Day • Truth is, most of us contain a splashing, giggling, squealing child who knows without thinking that bare skin and water go together as wings go with air, roots with earth, and the phoenix with incendiary sun. And innocence belongs to us as it did to ancient Greek athletes, who never wore clothes for their footraces or boxing matches but rather oiled themselves until their nude bodies glistened in the sunlight. – Janet Lembke • We are talking about mutated women, the result of cruel genetic experiments performed by fashion designers so lacking in any sense of human decency that they think nothing of putting their initials on your eyeglass lenses. The leading cause of death among fashion models is falling through street grates. If a normal woman puts on clothing designed for these unfortunate people, she is quite naturally going to look like Revenge of the Pork Person. – Dave Barry • We can no more do without spirituality than we can do without food, shelter, or clothing. – Ernest Holmes • We few, we happy few, we band of brothers – joined in the serious business of keeping our food, shelter, clothing and loved ones from combining with oxygen. – Kurt Vonnegut • We have to find in Christ, not a mask that conceals our face, but an entire wardrobe of clothing, which is His righteousness. – R. C. Sproul • We live in an age of seriously crap mass clothing. They’ve made a science of it. – William Gibson • We take care of our health; we lay up money; we make our roof tight, and our clothing sufficient; but who provides wisely that he shall not be wanting in the best property of all, -friends? – Ralph Waldo Emerson • Wear modest, clean clothing. Your clothing doesn’t need to be new and [it] should have some fashion of course, but [it] should be clean, modest, and neat. Be dignified in your outward manner and in your inward morality. – Bruce R. McConkie • Well, what I’m doing is really clothing. I’m not doing sculpture. – Issey Miyake • We’re taking up some science experiments, some crystal growth things, we have a refrigerator that carries up some samples, new samples that go into the station, we bring the old ones home; we have a lot of clothing, we have a lot of food-U.S. and Russian food. – Linda M. Godwin • What a strange power there is in clothing. – Isaac Bashevis Singer • What we want is clothing we think we can fly in. That’s why I opened the show with flying dresses. – Alber Elbaz • When a rainbow appears vividly in the sky, you can see its beautiful colors, yet you could not wear as clothing or put it on as an ornament. It arises through the conjunction of various factors, but there is nothing about it that can be grasped. Likewise, thoughts that arise in the mind have no tangible existence or intrinsic solidity. There is no logical reason why thoughts, which have no substance, should have so much power over you, nor is there any reason why you should become their slave. – Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche • When a woman veils her body in modest clothing, she is not hiding herself from men. On the contrary, she is revealing her dignity to them. – Jason Evert • When the child is twelve, your wife buys her a splendidly silly article of clothing called a training bra. To train what? I never had a training jock. And believe me, when I played football, I could have used a training jock more than any twelve-year-old needs a training bra. – Bill Cosby • When we really get into hard times, where food is scarce or there is none at all, and so with clothing and shelter, money may be no good for there may be nothing to buy, and you cannot eat money, you cannot get enough of it together to burn to keep you warm, and you cannot wear it. – J.

• A ‘liberal paradise’ would be a place where everybody has guaranteed employment, free comprehensive health care, free education, free food, free housing, free clothing, free utilities and only law enforcement personnel have guns. And, believe it or not, such a liberal utopia does indeed exist. … It’s called prison. – Joe Arpaio • A clothing company is making T-shirts inspired by Bernie Sanders with messages like ‘Feel the Bern.’ They were gonna make them for Lincoln Chafee too, but no one wants to wear a shirt that says ‘Feel the Chafee.’ – Jimmy Fallon • A great thing happening now in art is that artists are using the figure, the body, clothing, life. – Issey Miyake • A long memory is the most subversive idea in America. A tautology is a thing which is tautological. A witty saying proves nothing, but saying something pointless gets people’s attention. If your kids look like you, it’s hereditory. If they look like the neighbor, it’s the environment. Although golf was originally restricted to wealthy, overweight Protestants, today it’s open to anybody who owns hideous clothing. – Dave Barry • A lot of geeks are pale, bespectacled, wear dark clothing and don’t get out much – the stereotype exists because it is very often true. I could pass for a non-geek but it would be inaccurate. – China Mieville • A man who examines the saddle and bridle and not the animal itself when he is out to buy a horse is a fool; similarly, only an absolute fool values a man according to his clothes, or according to his position, which after all is only something we wear like clothing. – Seneca the Younger • A sheep in sheep’s clothing. – Winston Churchill • A weird thing happens when you’re taken out of your normal clothing and put into USA gear. – Shaun White • A woman’s dress should be like a barbed-wire fence: serving its purpose without obstructing the view. – Sophia Loren • About 25 years ago, I took a bicycle across the United States.

There were dozens of uses for a bandanna – as a pot holder, a chain cleaner, a sun shield, a headband, a snot rag, a declaration of Kerouacian intent. – Colum McCann • Actors have an unusual perspective on clothing. You’ve really got to know the impact of what you’re wearing on the character you’re playing – Kyle MacLachlan • Advertising mourishes the consuming power of men. It sets up before a man the goal of a better home, better clothing, better food for himself and his family.

And it’s a shame that people think they’re unique because they have a face ring, retro clothing, colorful hair, drive a certain kind of automobile or listen to some obscure musician. – Gary Yourofsky • As you know, the business is cyclic with styles. It’s no different from clothing styles. – Juice Newton • Authenticity doesn’t mean much to me. I just want “good”, in the sense of well-designed, well-constructed, long-lasting garments. My interest in military clothing stems from that. It’s not about macho, playing soldiers, anything militaristic. It’s the functionality, the design-solutions, the durability. Likewise workwear. – William Gibson

I sit for hours in a dark-room feeling as if I were a very elderly Faust at some dreadful incantation, and come out of it, blinding at the light, like a Bastille prisoner. And yet I am not successful! – Bret Harte

• Change is a sheep in wolf’s clothing – Darren LaCroix • Clothes are nothing more than a fig leaf. And the bodies beneath are just another layer of clothing, an outfit of flesh with an impractically thin leather exterior, in various shades of pink, yellow and brown. The souls alone are real. Seen in this way, there can never be any such thing as social unease or shyness or embarrassment. All you need do is greet your fellow soul. – Michel Faber • Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society. – Mark Twain • Clothing has a great deal to do with the attitudes and energy that others direct towards you. I favor the chic, and tend to avoid the trendy. I think that it’s good to be chic when possible because it is more inaccessible. – Frederick Lenz • Clothing is art. It’s an expression of how you feel. I think that it’s not so much a question of a certain style or designer, but of finding the type of clothing that works well for you. – Frederick Lenz • Clothing sales plummet, rent delinquencies mount and even grocery sales shrink as gamblers, having tapped out their entertainment budgets, dip into dollars set aside for necessities – John Warren Kindt • C’m’on lefties! Admit that Trump has been very tough on China. He has been especially tough on Chinese kids who slave away in sweatboxes, making his clothing lines. – Michael R. Burch • Curiously, ghosts are rarely if ever seen in the nude. They appear fully clothed, and may even change clothing on subsequent appearances.

I learned how to incorporate a cute peter pan collar on a dress and not make it look juvenile. – Lily Collins • Don’t forget that costumes, like dreams, are symbolic communication. Dreams teach us that a language for everything exists – for every object, every color worn, every clothing detail. Hence, costumes provide an aesthetic objectification that helps to tell the character’s story. – Federico Fellini • Elegance is a question of personality, more than one’s clothing. – Jean Paul Gaultier • Even now, if I am thinking about spending a lot of money on clothing or furniture, I think ‘I can’t spend so much money on one thing; my poor old Daddy could have raised his family five years on that!’ – Dolly Parton • Evil is real – and powerful. It has to be fought, not explained away, not fled. And God is against evil all the way. So each of us has to decide where we stand, how we’re going to live our lives. We can try to persuade ourselves and wink at evil. We can say that it isn’t so bad after all, maybe even try to call it fun by clothing it in silks and velvets. We can compromise with it, keep quiet about it , and say it’s none of our business. Or we can work on God’s side, listen for His orders on strategy against the evil, no matter how horrible it is, and know that He can transform it. – Catherine Marshall • Fairest and best adorned is she Whose clothing is humility. – James Montgomery • Fashion is very much emotional. When you see it, or when you wear the right clothing, or you wear whatever, it’s supposed to make you feel something. You’re supposed to feel some type of emotion, and I feel like I try to do that when I’m on a red carpet. – Zendaya • Fear wraps our bodies in clothing, love allows us to stand naked. – Neale Donald Walsch • Five Great Habits for Better Relationships: acceptance (smile each time), appreciation (say thank you to everyone), admiration (compliment people on their appearance or clothing, etc.), approval (praise immediately, specifically and repeatedly), and attention (be a good listener). – Brian Tracy • Food, clothing and shelter — these are the basic needs. Beyond that, if you want anything, it is the beginning of self-deception. – U.G. Krishnamurti • For example, I wear clothes I buy at trendy shops because I don’t care much about clothing. If someone wants to create a trend around clothing, I’ll happily and blindly follow. – Lewis Schiff • For me, clothing is nothing without the story behind it. Everything I own evokes some kind of memory. – Rachael Taylor • For me, it’s really day to day. I don’t really plan ahead and I like to be excited about what I’m wearing. Being on the road all the time, it’s various articles of clothing that keep me inspired and feeling good. A fun or beautiful thing to wear can change your day. I think spontaneity and not adhering to any narrow styles keep me happy. – Victoria Legrand • For me, the anarchy movement is hilarious. It’s all under .org, which is of course government sponsored websites, and then they’re all wearing corporate clothing from the Dr.Martin’s to the back sacks and the cell phones, they’re all flying around on corporate jets and using corporate highways. Very anarchistic! – John Lydon • For over forty years, in a spirit of love, members of the Church have been counseled to be thrifty and self-reliant; to avoid debt; pay tithes and a generous fast offering; be industrious; and have sufficient food, clothing, and fuel on hand to last at least one year. Today there are compelling reasons to reemphasize this counsel. – Ezra Taft Benson • Gamblers spend 10 percent less on food; 25 percent less on clothing and 35 percent less on savings – John Warren Kindt • Gap clothing allows you to look like you’re from nowhere and anywhere. – Douglas Coupland • Giving back is the right thing to do, whether it’s donating clothing or even just a smile to someone who needs it. – Becky G • God is our clothing, that wraps, clasps and encloses us so as to never leave us. – Julian of Norwich • Have you ever known an alcoholic, a cigarette smoker, or a heroin user to be rational when it came to alcohol, cigarettes, or heroin? Of course not. And there is NO such thing as a rational – or ethical – meat, dairy, egg and honey-eater when it comes to animal issues and whether humans should be enslaving, murdering and eating animals, or using them as test subjects, clothing and entertainment. – Gary Yourofsky • I actually love modeling clothing and showing women that clothing and style can help your confidence shine. – Ashley Graham • I always just wanted to be a movie actress, like Lily Tomlin or Ruth Gordon. I just imagined myself being in a movie, wearing stylish women’s clothing the way I saw Amy Irving wearing it. – Jenny Slate • I am never at my best in the early morning, especially a cold morning in the Yorkshire spring with a piercing March wind sweeping down from the fells, finding its way inside my clothing, nipping at my nose and ears. – James Herriot • I am the largest market shareholder of clothing in the UK and I am not a destination shop for food. If the clothing market is affected – and it has been – and I hold my market share mathematically, then fine, I am doing no worse than the market is doing, which is exactly the case, but I’m losing revenue. – Stuart Rose • I am very much a person who appreciates perennial things. Things like a Lacoste shirt, a Clarks desert boot, Persol sunglasses and Vans shoes that have been the same forever. There are certain things that once you find it, you like it and it’s done. I like Italian clothing, like suits from Battistoni and I have a shirt by Piero Albertelli. – Roman Coppola • I believe in the 12 Jewels and try to provide my childrem with them. That is Knowledge, Wisdom, Understanding, Freedom, Justice, Equality, Food, Clothing, Shelter, Love, Peace and Happiness. – RZA • I can still do clothing, movies, cartoons. I’mma get mine regardless. Whether I put an album out or not, I’m still gonna see a check. – Beanie Sigel • I cannot believe that our factory system is the best mode by which men may get clothing. The condition of the operatives is becoming every day more like that of the English; and it cannot be wondered at, since, as far as I have heard or observed, the principal object is, not that mankind may be well and honestly clad, but, unquestionably, that the corporations may be enriched. – Henry David Thoreau • I design for real people. I think of our customers all the time. There is no virtue whatsoever in creating clothing or accessories that are not practical. – Giorgio Armani • I do a lot of vintage, of course, but I really feel so particular about clothing. I think it stems from acting, like if I’m not wearing the proper shoes for a character I feel totally off. – Morgan Saylor • I do enjoy wearing Japanese and Italian clothing. I also enjoy my blue jeans or tennis shorts and running shoes. I like driving a Porsche because it is an elegant machine and it is a very beautiful experience to drive it. It’s magnificently made. – Frederick Lenz • I do love a bit of fashion. I grew up around a lot of it as my mum and dad had clothing stores so my mum was always designing a lot, and I definitely had that as an influence. – Leona Lewis • I don’t find glamour and clothing relevant. – Tea Leoni • I don’t have a problem with my body. I’m not just going to strip off all my clothing, but if the part calls for it and I don’t think there’s any way round, I’m absolutely fine. – Keira Knightley • I don’t know what it is about the shower that generates creative thoughts. Maybe it’s the hot water. Maybe it’s being unencumbered even by the restriction of clothing. – Lyle Lovett • I don’t see how an article of clothing can be indecent. A person, yes. – Robert A. Heinlein • I feel like clothing is very much emotional, you know? – Zendaya • I find men’s clothing fascinating because sometime between, say, 1930 and 1936 a handful of basic shapes were created and still prevail as a sort of scale of expression, with which every man can project his own personality and his own dignity. – Yves Saint Laurent • I grew up in a family where our mother made our clothing. We didn’t have a lot of money, so we learned how to scrimp, and we learned how to invent and to create. And those are learned skills. – Marcy Kaptur • I had such a distaste for ’70s clothing.

Penney’s… and I’m lucky to be affiliated. – Diahann Carroll • I have many creative outlets. I sing, I like music, I like art, I paint, I draw. I like buying art. I read a lot, too. I love books. And I’m working on a clothing line, too. – Evan Ross • I just think this whole thing about not wearing anything twice, I just don’t understand it. I think things should be worn.

I don’t get what’s going on here. He was not a good choice for her. – Donald Trump • I model irregular clothing. – Jay London • I never dreamed about being an actor, because that was out of reach. Coming from a small town that was big in farming, and also big in clothing factories, you don’t dream about being a professional football player or an actor. – Herschel Walker • I realized that I wasn’t naturally born to good taste. I understand what it is, but I am happy to wear bright colors. I do have a few items of black clothing, but I think good taste and doing the same thing over and over again is what the whole art world has become. – Jim Shaw • I really like the retro look. My regular clothing, I like to always keep it classy and I like to kind of be more dressed up more of the time. I’m not really someone you see in sweatpants a lot. – Aly Raisman • I spent nearly two hours deciding on an outfit that would look as if the subject of clothing had never crossed my mind, but would in fact show off my best features and miraculously hide the extra pounds. – Rosanne Cash • I think clothing is transformative. When you put something really beautiful on, you feel something. In so many ways, were always playing a form of dress-up – its just a grown-up, much chicer version of it. Its nice to be able to be whoever you want to be. – Jason Wu • I think it’s cooler when girls have favorite pieces of clothing rather than an entirely new wardrobe every few months. – Cameron Russell • I think there’s a lot of people who are afraid to experiment with clothing because they’re afraid to get judged or ridiculed. – Ian Astbury • I want people to see the dress, but focus on the woman. – Vera Wang • I want to find a way to reach young women emotionally and also to start providing clothing for them so that they can wear the same things their thin friends can wear. I really want to do evening wear and prom dresses for these girls. – Delta Burke • I wanted Bow’s hair and makeup and clothing to look like a woman who has four children, a career, and a full life. For example, she won’t wear eyeshadow unless she’s going out. Because it takes a lot of time to put eyeshadow on. She’s a woman who has style, but it’s all about functionality – she grabs stuff from her closet. – Tracee Ellis Ross • I was lucky I survived the motorcycle accident because I – bike went under the car. I flew out about 20 or 25 feet. I didn’t have a helmet on. I hit my head on the pavement and knocked myself out, gave myself a brain concussion, screwed up my left leg. And I was – I was lucky then that I didn’t get killed because I didn’t have any protective clothing on whatsoever. And I took a pretty good beating. But, yeah, such was the nature of the day when the barber was called and Samson’s locks were trimmed. – Bruce Springsteen • I was unaware of the dispute in Brooklyn. I would never knowingly wear any clothes or support any company who produced clothing with alleged wage and labor violations. – Shakira • I was very preppy in my childhood.

My mom was always trying to get me into proper clothes, but I never wanted to wear them, and now that’s all I wear. – Jason Wu • I was writing – at least beginning to write Boston Boy and there were a lot of holes in my so-called research. I didn’t know the towns my mother and father came from in Russia. I didn’t know the name of the clothing store I went to work for when I was 11 years old. I didn’t know a lot of things. So I called for my FBI files, not expecting to have that stuff there, but I wanted to know what they had on me.But they did have the towns my mother and father lived in in Russia. They had the grocery store I worked in when I was 11 years old. – Nat Hentoff • I wear black on the outside ‘Cause black is how I feel on the inside. – Steven Morrissey • I wear everything from hip-hop baggy pants to beautiful Armani dresses. I also like to mix vintage clothing with designer pieces. – Julia Stiles • I will continue to distribute blankets, sleeping bags, warm clothing and food on a regular basis, in the hope that my modest efforts will give some comfort to those people we are able help. – Mohamed Al-Fayed • I wore a lot of vintage clothing. I dressed like a reporter, with a little card in my hat. I had these fantasies of who I wanted to be, so I’d dress like an explorer, a cowboy. I dressed up like Elton John a lot too. That was another period. – Illeana Douglas • If a man were living in isolation his income would be literally his product. Make him the monarch and owner of an island, and the fruits that he raises and the clothing that he makes constitute, in themselves, his income. This ceases to be true when trading begins. – John Bates Clark • If a woman wants to fly, first of all she must, of course, abandon skirts and don a knickerbocker uniform. – Harriet Quimby • If honor be your clothing, the suit will last a lifetime; but if clothing be your honor, it will soon be worn threadbare.- William Arnot • If my clothing does stand out, then I guess it’s a compliment, but I just wear whatever feels comfortable. – Shania Twain • If one’s life is simple, contentment has to come.

Lots of work for my clothing line which is extremely exciting. – Alyssa Milano • I’m going forward, so my clothing line is kind of the physicalization of that. The idea of diversity, of uniqueness, of individuality – that’s what this is all about. – Zendaya • I’m just a bleeping maniac in straight clothing. There’s no reason to dress my monster up. – Glenn Frey • I’m tryin’ to build myself bigger than just Ace Hood, I’m tryin’ to build myself as a bigger brand – open up clothing lines, colognes. – Ace Hood • I’m very interested in buildings that adapt to changes in climatic conditions according to the seasons, buildings capable of responding to our physical and psychological needs in the way that clothing does. We don’t turn on the air-conditioning as we walk through the streets in high summer. Instead, we change the character of the clothing by which we are protected. Layering and changeability: this is the key. – Glenn Murcutt • In China there was once a man who liked pictures of dragons, and his clothing and furnishings were all designed accordingly. His deep affection for dragons was brought to the attention of the dragon god, and onde day a real dragon appeared before his window. It is said that he died of fright. He was probably a man who always spoke big words but acted differently when facing the real thing. – Yamamoto Tsunetomo • In Georgia, rednecks are just wolves in wolf clothing. In Detroit, you don’t know who’s a redneck until you go home and meet their parents. – Joseph Bruce • In Harlem, for instance, all of the stores are owned by white people, all of the buildings are owned by white people. The black people are just there – paying rent, buying the groceries; but they don’t own the stores, clothing stores, food stores, any kind of stores; don’t even own the homes that they live in. They are all owned by outsiders, and for these run-down apartment dwellings, the black man in Harlem pays more money than the man down in the rich Park Avenue section. – Malcolm X • In our home (for the dying at Kali Ghat) in Calcutta, there is great peace, unity and love. Many Hindu families bring food, clothing nonstop to our home for the dying. This is an act of love. I didn’t ask them. They have only heard about what I am doing and they all come. – Mother Teresa • In the beginning of the book, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, Edward is more enamored of himself than he is of anybody else. He’s a very fine rabbit; he’s been constructed incredibly well, and he has a wardrobe of amazing clothing. He’s arrogant, and he doesn’t care whether Abilene loves him or not. As the journey progresses, as he gets passed from hand to hand, he learns what it means to love. He gets more and more bedraggled, and his clothing is lost; yet he becomes finer in soul and heart than he was at the beginning of the journey. – Kate DiCamillo • In the next election, can we vote to ban those ribbon things that kind of keep clothing on hangers but really just hang out of your armpits? – Olivia Wilde • Insecurity is love dressed in a child’s clothing. – Kofi Annan • Is not the most erotic part of the body wherever the clothing affords a glimpse? – Roland Barthes • It gets boring to me when people talk about clothing brands or what boat they’re going to buy next summer. – Natassia Malthe • It is both delusional and stupid to think that clothes don’t really matter and we should all wear whatever we want. Most people don’t take clothing seriously enough, but whether we should or not, clothes do talk to us and we make decisions based on people’s appearances. – G. Bruce Boyer • It is extremely important to me that the social and environmental issues associated with the production of fashion clothing are addressed. – Bonnie Wright • It is long accepted by the missionaries that morality is inversely proportional to the amount of clothing people wore – Alex Carey • It is torment to be segregated out because of some bit of clothing that you’re wearing. – Alan Sugar • It might be said that society speaks through the clothing it wears. Through its clothing it reveals its secret aspirations and uses it, at least in part, to build or destroy its future. – Pope Pius XII • It seems the most logical thing in the world to believe that the natural resources of the Earth, upon which the race depends for food, clothing and shelter, should be owned collectively by the race instead of being the private property of a few social parasites. – Ralph Chaplin • It’s very important to have the right clothing to exercise in. If you throw on an old T-shirt or sweats, it’s not inspiring for your workout. – Cheryl Tiegs • I’ve always been the go-to girl for all of my girlfriends in terms of relationship advice or clothing advice. – Molly Ringwald • I’ve always been very interested in fashion, but it is extremely important to me that the social and environment issues associated with the production of fashionable clothing are addressed. Made-By carries out really important work in transforming the fashion industry, and I am thrilled to support the organisation and help raise awareness of these ongoing issues. – Bonnie Wright • I’ve always regarded nature as the clothing of God. – Alan Hovhaness • I’ve always thought of accessories as the exclamation point of a woman’s outfit. – Michael Kors • I’ve been offered a lot of things that celebrities do that I wouldn’t do, like perfumes, lines of clothing and this, that and the other. – Gloria Estefan • I’ve got whole years of unfortunate clothing in ’80s. – Patrick Wilson • I’ve watched towns and cities evolve and become very resilient, and fun, and unique, and prosperous on their own terms. And the secret is bridging. It’s when the local church has a fun clothing swap fundraiser with a temple, and then the next year they bring in the mosque. – Dar Williams • James Bond is quite serious about his drinks and clothing and cigarettes and food and all that sort of thing. There is nothing wry or amused about James Bond. – Ken Follett • Labels are for filing. Labels are for clothing. Labels are not for people. – Martina Navratilova • Legalize hemp and allow women to grow it and make food, clothing and housing for pennies from it and legalize marijuana too. Let women integrate their divided consciousness with a natural herb instead of doctors’ pills that kill the liver. – Roseanne Barr • Leo Tolstoy, the greatest anti-patriot of our time, defines patriotism as the principle that will justify the training of wholesale murderers; a trade that requires better equipment in the exercise of man-killing than the making of such necessities as shoes, clothing, and houses; a trade that guarantees better returns and greater glory than that of the honest workingman. – Emma Goldman • Many sisters complain that people don’t want to marry them unless they stop wearing hijab. No man is worth your hijab, and a real man wouldn’t request you to take it off in the first place. – Omar Suleiman • Many spiritual people are involved in a radical denial of what is happening. They want to transcend it, get rid of it, get out of it, get away from it. There’s nothing wrong with that feeling, but the approach doesn’t work because it’s escapism in spiritual clothing. It’s wearing spiritual clothing and spiritual concepts, but it is really no different than a drunk in the gutter who doesn’t want to feel the pain anymore. When you abide and accept everything completely and fully, you automatically go beyond. – Adyashanti • Most reporters are sheep in wolves’ clothing. – Jeffrey Klein • My brothers went to work at 12 and put themselves through school and brought the family out of ruin into food and clothing. – Mel Brooks • My diminished girth, in tailor phraseology, was hardly conceivable even by my own friends, or my respected medical adviser, until I put on my former clothing, over what I now wear, which is a thoroughly convincing proof of the remarkable change. – William Banting • My husband had a clothing store in Paris, and I had his factory make specifically for me something similar to the one I was looking for. We made it in different colours, and decided to sell them in the store…and in a day, they were sold out! This sweater became later known as the “poor boy sweater” and it ended up making the cover of Elle magazine, and in a day, I became the “Queen of knit”, without knowing anything about knitting! – Sonia Rykiel • My musical style has changed dramatically from my first album until now. That’s the real developmental shift. But my clothing has pretty much stayed the same. The important thing is to be real. – Peter Cincotti • Nancy Drew was always changing her outfits. I despised girls’ clothing, I couldn’t wait to get home from school and get out of it. The last thing I wanted to read was minute descriptions of Nancy’s frocks. – Alison Bechdel • Never relinquish clothing to a hotel valet without first specifically telling him that you want it back. – Fran Lebowitz • Never trust a man in red trousers – Mika • Never use the word “cheap”. Today everybody can look chic in inexpensive clothes (the rich buy them too). There is good clothing design on every level today. You can be the chicest thing in the world in a T-shirt and jeans — it’s up to you. – Karl Lagerfeld • No change in musical style will survive unless it is accompanied by a change in clothing style. Rock is to dress up to. – Frank Zappa • No self-respecting gay guy would have ever made some of the hair and clothing choices I am still trying to live down. – David Copperfield • Nothing to mountaineering, just a little physical endurance, a good deal of brains, lots of practice, and plenty of warm clothing. – Annie Smith Peck • Of course, clothing fashions have always been impractical, except in Tahiti. – Jacques Barzun • On occasion I have observed parents shopping to clothe a son about to enter missionary service. The new suits are fitted, the new shoes are laced, and shirts, socks, and ties are bought in quantity. I met one father who said to me, ‘Brother Monson, I want you to meet my son.’ Pride popped his buttons; the cost of the clothing emptied his wallet; love filled his heart. Tears filled my eyes when I noticed that his [the father’s] suit was old, his shoes well worn; but he felt no deprivation. The glow on his face was a memory to cherish. – Thomas S. Monson • One of the things we’re trying to do more of is not just take money from corporate partnerships, but get more involved in the business side for when I retire. So Puma are going to make me an ambassador for life. I have a clothing line coming out. I am investing a lot in housing in Jamaica, buildings for rent. – Usain Bolt • One out of forty American men wears women’s clothing. We’ve had more than forty presidents. One of these guys has been dancing around the Oval Office in a prom dress. – Allison Janney • Pope Francis seems to be a much nicer man than Pope Benedict, but I’m not sure that his views on things that really matter are all that different. Whereas Benedict was perhaps a wolf in wolf’s clothing, Francis is perhaps a wolf in sheep’s clothing. – Richard Dawkins • Real holiness has love for its essence, humility for its clothing, the good of others as its employment, and the honor of God as its end. – Nathanael Emmons • Religious strictures are often the source of attitudes toward nudity. Society urges the wearing of clothing partially as a means of controlling the powerful sexual urges that are feared will be released by nudity, causing chaotic behavior. – Patricia Garfield • Remove the heavy clothing of your self-definition. You are not woman, you are not American, you are not son, you are not spiritual seeker, executive, teacher, unemployed, you are not wounded, you are not highly respected, you are not productive, you are not blah-blah-blah-blah. – Jan Frazier • Scientists believe that the invention of clothing in Africa was a key factor in allowing our ancestors to migrate into colder climates and to spread across the globe. – Ziya Tong • Shoes and clothing damage our ability to survive naked in the wilderness. – Steve Mann • So many people have asked me how I could possibly be a role model and dress like a tramp and get implants… all I have to say is that self-esteem is how you look at yourself and I feel good enough about myself so wear that kind of clothing… the breast implant issue has nothing to do with that. – Britney Spears • So when the wolf pounces on your lamb, just ignore the pitiful bleating and remind yourself that this is a democracy, where every sheep can freely express its preference for which kind of wolf it wants to be eaten by. Many sheep, perhaps understandably, prefer a wolf in sheep’s clothing, which is after all the basic idea of democracy. So far it has worked pretty well. The wolves all agree on that, and they want to spread democracy everywhere. – Joseph Sobran • Some of us have such incredible things that can keep us from acting. We have the luxury of drinking such good wine, and having such good information at our fingertips. I can look up anything on my computer. And I can call any friend at the drop of a hat on my cell phone. And I can have beautiful clothing and great food in a world where people are being tortured. I have some responsibility for that. – Dar Williams • Someone must transform income into the food, shelter, clothing, nurture, discipline, education, minding, nursing, transportation, and emotional support that creates life outside of the office, permits survival of the race, cares for the ill and disabled, and makes life livable when we can no longer care for ourselves. – Anne-Marie Slaughter • Somewhere near you, somebody right now is trying to help the indigent and poor – providing food, shelter, clothing or simple kindness. – Tony Snow • Success follows those adept at preserving the substance of the past by clothing it in the forms of the future. – Dee Hock • Sure, I could of done it different… put my clown in a closet and dressed up in straight clothing. I could of compromised my essence, and swallowed my soul. – Wavy Gravy • Sweater, n.: garment worn by child when its mother is feeling chilly. – Ambrose Bierce • The alms given to a naked man in the street do not fulfil the obligations of the state, which owes to every citizen a certain subsistence, a proper nourishment, convenient clothing, and a kind of life not incompatible with health. – Baron de Montesquieu • The average family pays more in taxes than it spends on food, clothing, and shelter combined. – Dick Armey • The Church is the house of God. It is forbidden for men to enter with bare arms or in shorts. It is forbidden for women to enter in trousers, without a veil on their head, in short clothing, low necklines, sleeveless or immodest dresses. – Pio of Pietrelcina • The cinema that I make is a cinema about people, emotion, humanity and passion. It’s not just about what they struggle through, but what they live for. That’s what I love. The music they love, the people they love, the clothing, the hair and the life that they love – David O. Russell • The clothing is moving, the external version is moving. Whether the internal version is moving or not it is a different matter. It is good to practice Ayurveda, it is good to worship the Gods and Goddesses, it is good to do bhajans. Of course, depending on what your own personal development is, that will determine how, in what way and how well you will be able to connect to that tradition and bring it to life inside yourself. – Robert Svoboda • The clothing, the makeup, the freedom of expression in [the models’] bodies. It was Linda and Christy and Naomi at the time. So I modeled before college. – Tracee Ellis Ross • The deepest need of men is not food and clothing and shelter, important as they are. It is God. – Thomas Raymond Kelly • The difference between style and fashion is quality. – Giorgio Armani • The dress must not hang on the body but follow its lines. When a woman smiles the dress must smile with her. – Madeleine Vionnet • The fashionable woman wears clothes. The clothes don’t wear her. – Mary Quant • The finest clothing made is a person’s own skin, but, of course, society demands something more than this. – Mark Twain • The game Flights of Fancy or Reverse Strip Jump is played from as high a jumping-point as a competitor will dare. After each successful jump, the competitor is allowing to put on an article of clothing. Thirteen jumps is normally more than enough to see a competitor fully dressed for the day. – Peter Greenaway • The goal I seek is to have people refine their style through my clothing without having them become victims of fashion. – Giorgio Armani • The history of clothing practices provides guidance for fashioning a new ethic that emphasizes quality over quantity, longevity over novelty, and versatility over specialization. With such an ethic, consumers would demand a shift toward more timeless design, away from fast-moving trends. Clothes could become more versatile in terms of what they can be used for, their ability to fit differently shaped bodies and to be altered. – Juliet B. Schor • The Honorable Elijah Muhammad says that the black man in America, for the past 400 years, has been like a boy in the white man’s house, begging the white man for a job, for food, clothing and shelter. And then after the white man provides him with all of these things, he turns around and get – has the nerve to get angry at the white man when the white man tries to control his life. – Malcolm X • The immense wealth of doctrine and institutions can become a handicap if we are trying to present all of that to a person who has lost all contact with the Church and no longer knows who Jesus is. That would be like clothing a baby with one of those enormous, heavy brocaded copes that priests and bishops used to wear. Instead, it is necessary to help this person establish a relationship with Jesus. – Raniero Cantalamessa • The left’s obsession with corporations as a spawn of evil is pathological paranoia. A corporation is just one form of organizing a private business enterprise for purposes of limiting personal liability, issuing stock, filing financial reports and paying taxes. Other forms include partnerships and sole proprietorships. Are they less evil? You buy your groceries from corporations, your cars, newspapers, cellphones, clothing and exercise equipment. Your parents and children work for corporations. Are they evil? – Mike Rosen • The makeup is simply an extension of the personality and colors, clothing, makeup all express something. – Gene Simmons • The mathematician may be compared to a designer of garments, who is utterly oblivious of the creatures whom his garments may fit. To be sure, his art originated in the necessity for clothing such creatures, but this was long ago; to this day a shape will occasionally appear which will fit into the garment as if the garment had been made for it. Then there is no end of surprise and delight. – George Dantzig • The most important thing, of course, is that you should look more stunning than you have ever looked in your life. How many excuses do you have to wear a dress bigger than anyone else’s, at a party just for you, where everyone has to burst into tears from how gorgeous you look while you prance around in front of them? Remember, your lifelong happiness depends on this one article of clothing. If it doesn’t look good, you’re not a bride. You’re just some idiot in a big white thing – a color unflattering to about 93 percent of the population. – Mimi Pond • The move to tax Internet sales, clothed as a ‘fairness’ issue, is the typical ‘wolf-in-sheep’s-clothing’ ploy so often used by governments unwilling to cut expenditures to match revenues. It matters not whether its proponents have a ‘D’ or an ‘R’ after their name. It is a tax increase in either case. – Bob Barr • The noblest art is the nude. This truth is recognized by all, and followed by painters, sculptors and poets. Only the dancer has forgotten it, who should remember it, as the instrument of [the dance] art is the human body itself. – Isadora Duncan • The origins of clothing are not practical. They are mystical and erotic. The primitive man in the wolf-pelt was not keeping dry; he was saying: Look what I killed. Aren’t I the best? – Katharine Hamnett • The ravening wolves are amongst us, from our own membership, and they, more than any others, are clothed in sheep’s clothing, because they wear the habiliments of the priesthood…We should be careful of them. – J. Reuben Clark • The technology for a clothing printer exists but is not packaged in a form that would be suitable for consumer use. With the future potential of printing technology, an at-home clothing printer is a definite possibility. Our challenge was to define the experience. – Joshua Harris • The time will come when we will be obliged to depend upon our own resources; for the time is not far distant when the curtain will be dropped between us and the United States. When the time comes, brethren and sisters, you will wish you had commenced sooner to make your own clothing. I tell you, God requires us to go into home manufacture; and, prolong it as much as you like, you have got to do it. – Heber C. Kimball • The woman’s bill of rights is, unhappily, long overdue. It should have run along with the rights of man in the eighteenth century. Its drag as to time of official proclamation is a drag as to social vision. And even if equal rights were now written into the law of our land, it would be so inadequate today as a means to food, clothing and shelter for woman at large that what they would still be enjoying would be equality in disaster rather than in realistic privilege. – Mary Ritter Beard • The word “veganism” denotes a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude – as far as is possible and practical – all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of humans, animals and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals. – Donald Watson • The world over, give a guy money and it goes to drinking, gambling, and women. When you give a woman money, it goes to feeding, clothing, helping people. – Peter Buffett • There are new ways of producing food, film, clothing, and research that steer clear of using animals. Some of those products are functionally equivalent or even superior to what we’re used to. Now corporations, legislatures, and other institutions are responding, and supporting these shifts, so we’re seeing seismic changes throughout society. – Wayne Pacelle • There is a vast difference between the outward clothing of the Spirit’s power and the inward filling of the Spirit’s life. In the first, despite the power, the hidden man of the heart may remain unchanged. In the latter, that monster is dealt with. – Gene Edwards • There is increasing social concern about our use of nonhumans for experiments, food, clothing and entertainment. This concern about animals reflects both our own moral development as a civilization and our recognition that the differences between humans and animals are, for the most part, differences of degree and not of kind. – Gary L. Francione • There is no morally coherent difference between fur and other animal clothing, such as leather, wool, etc., just as there is no morally coherent distinction between meat and milk or eggs. – Gary L. Francione • There were details like clothing, hair styles and the fragile objects that hardly ever survive for the archaeologist-musical instruments, bows and arrows, and body ornaments depicted as they were worn… No amounts of stone and bone could yield the kinds of information that the paintings gave so freely – Mary Leakey • There’s enough food in this world. There’s enough housing in this world. There’s enough shelter in this world. There’s enough clothing in this world. There’s enough teachers, there’s enough universities for everybody’s needs to be met, and the reasons they aren’t is not because of lack of resources. It’s because of distribution, and that’s the politics of hate, which is why this is a movement against that. It’s a politics of love. – Rebecca Solnit • There’s no such thing as bad weather, only inappropriate clothing – Ranulph Fiennes • There’s two facets to writing a song. There’s you sitting in your room writing the sentiments of the song; the lyrics, the melody and the changes, and then there’s the part where you go into the studio and you put clothing on it. – Nuno Bettencourt • They say that the best furniture and clothing design from the ’50s and ’60s is Scandinavian or Milanese. – Christian Lacroix • Throw aside your scriptures in the Ganga and teach the people first the means of procuring their food and clothing, and then you will find time to read to them the scriptures. – Swami Vivekananda • To me, clothing is a form of self-expression – there are hints about who you are in what you wear. – Marc Jacobs • Together with the works of mercy, feeding, sheltering, and clothing our brothers, we must indoctrinate. – Dorothy Day • Truth is, most of us contain a splashing, giggling, squealing child who knows without thinking that bare skin and water go together as wings go with air, roots with earth, and the phoenix with incendiary sun. And innocence belongs to us as it did to ancient Greek athletes, who never wore clothes for their footraces or boxing matches but rather oiled themselves until their nude bodies glistened in the sunlight. – Janet Lembke • We are talking about mutated women, the result of cruel genetic experiments performed by fashion designers so lacking in any sense of human decency that they think nothing of putting their initials on your eyeglass lenses. The leading cause of death among fashion models is falling through street grates. If a normal woman puts on clothing designed for these unfortunate people, she is quite naturally going to look like Revenge of the Pork Person. – Dave Barry • We can no more do without spirituality than we can do without food, shelter, or clothing. – Ernest Holmes • We few, we happy few, we band of brothers – joined in the serious business of keeping our food, shelter, clothing and loved ones from combining with oxygen. – Kurt Vonnegut • We have to find in Christ, not a mask that conceals our face, but an entire wardrobe of clothing, which is His righteousness. – R. C. Sproul • We live in an age of seriously crap mass clothing. They’ve made a science of it. – William Gibson • We take care of our health; we lay up money; we make our roof tight, and our clothing sufficient; but who provides wisely that he shall not be wanting in the best property of all, -friends? – Ralph Waldo Emerson • Wear modest, clean clothing. Your clothing doesn’t need to be new and [it] should have some fashion of course, but [it] should be clean, modest, and neat. Be dignified in your outward manner and in your inward morality. – Bruce R. McConkie • Well, what I’m doing is really clothing. I’m not doing sculpture. – Issey Miyake • We’re taking up some science experiments, some crystal growth things, we have a refrigerator that carries up some samples, new samples that go into the station, we bring the old ones home; we have a lot of clothing, we have a lot of food-U.S. and Russian food. – Linda M. Godwin • What a strange power there is in clothing. – Isaac Bashevis Singer • What we want is clothing we think we can fly in. That’s why I opened the show with flying dresses. – Alber Elbaz • When a rainbow appears vividly in the sky, you can see its beautiful colors, yet you could not wear as clothing or put it on as an ornament. It arises through the conjunction of various factors, but there is nothing about it that can be grasped. Likewise, thoughts that arise in the mind have no tangible existence or intrinsic solidity. There is no logical reason why thoughts, which have no substance, should have so much power over you, nor is there any reason why you should become their slave. – Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche • When a woman veils her body in modest clothing, she is not hiding herself from men. On the contrary, she is revealing her dignity to them. – Jason Evert • When the child is twelve, your wife buys her a splendidly silly article of clothing called a training bra. To train what? I never had a training jock. And believe me, when I played football, I could have used a training jock more than any twelve-year-old needs a training bra. – Bill Cosby • When we really get into hard times, where food is scarce or there is none at all, and so with clothing and shelter, money may be no good for there may be nothing to buy, and you cannot eat money, you cannot get enough of it together to burn to keep you warm, and you cannot wear it. – J. Reuben Clark • When you buy a piece of vintage clothing you’re not just buying the fabric and thread – you’re buying a piece of someone’s past – Isabel Wolff • When you feel good in a clothing anything can happen. A good clothing is a passport for happiness. – Yves Saint Laurent • When you really are country, and you don’t just wear it like a piece of clothing or something, you really can’t get away from it. It just is who you are – Lee Ann Womack • When you work with great people, you learn – about film, about clothing, about life, about sex. – Guido Palau • When you’ve seen a nude infant doing a backward somersault you know why clothing exists. – Stephen Fry • Who is secure in all his basic needs? Who has work, spiritual care, medical care, housing, food, occasional entertainment, free clothing, free burial, free everything? The answer might be nuns and monks, but the standard reply is ‘prisoners – Erik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn • With me, it’s clothing and makeup and hair and all that stuff that inform how the character moves and feels. – Toks Olagundoye • Women are free in the Islamic Republic in the selection of their activities and their future and their clothing. – Ruhollah Khomeini • Women of all ages in countries around the world are raped at all different times of day, in different circumstances, wearing all different kinds of clothing (including in countries where the majority of women wear completely covering clothing). The one thing they all have in common? They came into contact with a rapist. – Laura Bates • Women take clothing much more seriously than men. I’ve never seen a man walk into a party and say “Oh, my God, I’m so embarrassed; get me out of here. There’s another man wearing a black tuxedo. – Rita Rudner • You can tell what was the best year of your father’s life, because they seem to freeze that clothing style and ride it out. – Jerry Seinfeld • You can’t be what you don’t see. I didn’t think about being a doctor. I didn’t even think about being a clerk in a store, I’d never seen a black clerk in a clothing store. – Joycelyn Elders • You might think people would buy clothes out of pity, but they won’t. People buy clothes because they want to be excited about themselves. …it has to be great clothing that just happens to be goody-goody, too. – Katharine Hamnett • You walk a fine line when you have a performance at a show just as you do with having celebrities attend a show – you never want the attention to be drawn too far away from the clothing. – Mia Moretti
