"Yves Saint Laurent is an extraordinary man. He has been so successful and has made so much money, and yet he takes so little pleasure in life. He has so many houses, but whenever he goes to one house he gets bored and drives to another (...) He is very cultivated and has great taste, and, due to his great wealth, he is able to acquire anything he wants"
.
