Dedicated to the memory of
Quentin Crisp

Quentin and Calvin Klein

Image: Calvin Klein's unisex perfume CK1. Quentin spear-headed Calvin Klein's add campaign in America for his unisex CK1 perfume.

For one commercial he had to travel to Brooklyn. When he got there he found a square of paper and six very thin people standing on it, and a man naked to the waist crawling on the floor between their feet.

Quentin looked at Calvin and asked
"What does it all mean?"
Calvin replied
"Say that again".
Quentin found he had just written the dialogue for the commercial.

Are you an atheist?
"If God is the universe which encloses the universe, or if God is the cell inside the cell. or if God is the cause behind the cause - that I can beleive - I can not believe in a God susceptible to prayer - that's a lot of rubbish."
- Quentin Crisp
