  • Make it work!
    • Gunn's catchphrase during his work on the television show Project Runway
  • I was called a fool when I was chair of fashion at Parsons and I invited PETA to speak to students. The industry went crazy. I said: "Wait a minute. The International Fur Trade Commission is coming here. I have a responsibility to bring another point of view, let the students decide."

    • "Tim Gunn and me" by Patt Morrison, interview with the Los Angeles Times (23 November 2009).
