“heartworm n. a relationship or friendship that you can’t get out of your head, which you thought had faded long ago but is still somehow alive and unfinished, like an abandoned campsite whose smoldering embers still have the power to start a forest fire.”
“"“My philosophy is: as the face gets worse, the clothes have to get better.”" — Steve Martin”
“"“The natural desire to relax is often the cause of the abandonment of all standards of taste.”" — Hardy Amies”
“"“Great men of style develop a sense of how to attune their appearance by learning what works for them, what they should avoid and what they could accentuate. It’s an act of self-creation, a coinage of one’s own minting. It’s no use trying to emulate someone else’s style and make it your own, but you should study others and incorporate. Propriety is one thing, and a certain sense of correctness is important. But it’s those individual details that make life interesting. Style comes from subtlety and from deepening the ordinary in life.”" — Bruce Boyer”
“"“Trust not the heart of that man for whom old clothes are not venerable.”" — Thomas Carlyle”
