“It's important to celebrate the monogram. It's the DNA of Vuitton. I think - I hope - there is an interest in the philosophy and culture of the Vuitton name. It's quite coherent and intellectual, and the products are great. These are things you will want to pass on - things you treasure.” ThinkingWantImportantPhilosophyCultureNamesInterestProductsIntellectualTreasureCelebrateDnaMonograms Author:Delphine Arnault

“Why is it we want so badly to memorialize ourselves? Even while we're still alive. We wish to assert our existence, like dogs peeing on fire hydrants. We put on display our framed photographs, our parchment diplomas, our silver-plated cups; we monogram our linen, we carve our names on trees, we scrawl them on washroom walls. It's all the same impulse. What do we hope from it? Applause, envy, respect? Or simply attention, of any kind we can get? At the very least we want a witness. We can't stand the idea of our own voices falling silent finally, like a radio running down.” WantKindStillsIdeasRunningFallNamesWishVoiceExistenceAttentionFireAliveTreeDogWallSilentPhotographRadioEnvyCupsWitnessImpulseSilverDisplayApplauseFramedDiplomaLinenMonograms Book:The Blind Assassin: A Novel Source: The Blind Assassin: A Novel
