What they don't realize is that I'm not in the business to make clothes. I'm not in the business to make more money for myself, for Christ's sake.

That's the reason I'm in business - to try to clean up our own act, and try to influence other companies to do the right thing, and try to influence our customers to do the right thing. So we're not going to change.
Yvon Chouinard
