“Despite the insanity of using whether you would want to have a beer with someone as a legitimate reason for voting for or against them, I always felt that is indicative of a massive problem in politics: It matters as much what your personality is as how smart you are or how good you are at your job. That is a huge, huge problem. A lot of people who are very smart or very good at their jobs are not people I would want to ever have a beer with - but I would want them making massive policy decisions with huge implications for the future of the planet.” PeopleWantMatterReasonProblemJobsFeltDecisionPolicyPlanetsHugePersonalitySmartVery GoodDespiteBeerInsanityVotingMassiveImplicationsVery Smart Author:Michael Schur

“In fashion, of course, the way that women are dressed now - and also a vision of the modern woman, the woman of today. She's very feminine, but at the same time, extremely free. A Saint Laurent woman is actually very Parisian. She's not really a man's equal, she's his adversary. I worked on the catwalk with two models who worked with Yves Saint Laurent for more than 10 years. They're not just gorgeous models, they're more than that - they're very smart and very beautiful. They're more than models, they're really unique; it's personality. It's more than just fashion.” TodayBeautifulVisionModernFashionPersonalityEqualUniqueSmartSaintFeminineGorgeousAdversariesVery BeautifulVery Smart Author:Jalil Lespert
