Diane von Furstenberg, chairman and founder of Diane von Furstenberg: "The most important relationship in life is the one you have with yourself."

The most important relationship in life is the relationship you have with yourself. Once you have that, any other relationship is a plus and not a must.

We don't have control of everything ... Terrible things happen and all of that, but you never lose your character ... You could lose your health, your wealth, your beauty, your family, your everything, your freedom—but you never lose your character ... That's the only thing you have control of, so remember that.

When you doubt your power, you give power to your doubts.

Being in charge is a commitment to ourselves. It's owning who we are. It's owning our imperfection and realizing they become our asset.
