Bobbi Brown

I never learned management. I never went to business school. I'm an artist. I happened to have really clear ideas of what I thought my business should be.

My grandfather taught me how important it is to have your eyes open, because you never know what's going to come your way.

The most versatile lipstick you can own is a shade that's just a bit brighter than your natural lip color.

I still find it almost impossible to relax for more than one day at a time.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

It's good to like yourself, and that only comes from hard work, from doing. But vanity is dangerous; it can trip you badly.
