His friends often say he is "Crazy".

Paul Smith himself likes this evaluation very much.

Many of his actions also reflect the correctness of the evaluation, for example, he always talks about his so-called "one day tour".

"I went to the office in Delhi, where I stayed there for only one day.

On the same day, I can visit two places in the Great Wall of China and Vietnam.

My favorite "one day tour" was in Moscow in the morning, in St Petersburg in the afternoon, and in New York at night.

I am a busy person, and I have to travel in a less refined way.

Where did Pual Smith get its endless energy?

"I love life.

I like to watch all kinds of things, and I like to be interesting people.

At 6:30 every morning, I had to go swimming, and then I went to a regular cafe for Marmite toast.

On the way to work, I would stop at old Compton street and have a chat with a sweeper. He was very nice, a polish.

We are all the same people.

I never treat myself as a brand. Paul Smith is much richer than that. "

"I like playing games with them, or watching them play skateboards, they can call out the big kid in my heart."

He said.

"I always keep optimistic, life is so short, I do not want my time to pass, but the objective laws can not be changed.

I am old, but I am still young. "
