About This Quote
The only man I know who behaves sensibly is my tailor. The tailor has the ability to create a beautiful and stylish piece of clothing. He is able to take the most ordinary article and make it into something beautiful and stylish. He makes us look good, but he does it by altering what we already have.
His work, however, has always been about making us look good as we are. By giving us something that fits and showing us how we can make our own look better, he shows that no one can change us or our style without our desire and willingness to improve ourselves. The tailor helps us feel good about who we are and what we wear – he helps us become more comfortable with ourselves – and that’s the kind of help we all need at times.
