Philippe Starck response when asked about his own favourite designs reveals the humility in his hubris:
"The next ones. I don't like anything that I've done. That's why I continue to do it. I'm talentless, cynical, lazy and venal. Every object I've designed tells me how weak and lazy I am."

Geez. If he's talentless, cynical, lazy and venal, then I want to be all of the above too.
aww, poor baby...

humility? methinks it's more like false modesty...
If he doesn't like anything he's done, what does that mean about his perception of people who do like his work?
