"I literally have meetings at eight o'clock in the morning, and I finish at nine o'clock at night. It sounds pathetic, but I don't even have time to go shopping"
- Stella McCartney
About this Quote
This quote by Stella McCartney speaks to the intense work schedule she needs to preserve. She is stating that she has conferences beginning as early as 8am and she is working till 9pm, which is a 13 hour work day. This is a very long day and it leaves her without any time to do other activities such as shopping. This quote demonstrates how hard she works and how devoted she is to her job. It likewise speaks with the absence of balance in her life, as she is so focused on her work that she has no time at all for leisure activities. This quote is a suggestion to us all to make certain we require time for ourselves and to not let our work consume us. It is important to have a healthy balance in between work and leisure.
"Nature gives to every time and season some beauties of its own; and from morning to night, as from the cradle to the grave, it is but a succession of changes so gentle and easy that we can scarcely mark their progress"
"So many people are working in vaudeville today that I looked for three weeks to book enough acts for an hour bill and didn't have them until the night before we opened in Buffalo and money was no object!"
"Night, the beloved. Night, when words fade and things come alive. When the destructive analysis of day is done, and all that is truly important becomes whole and sound again. When man reassembles his fragmentary self and grows with the calm of a tree"
