• Part of an icon's power comes from its indivisibility. The swoosh cannot be further deconstructed into its component parts.

To buy a pair of Nike shoes is to buy the Nike swoosh.

• I actually loved to dress like a boy, and I still kind of do and try to sneak boy's pieces into my wardrobe.

If I could choose anything to wear for the rest of my life, I'd just want a boy's outfit.
