I've had people ask me in interviews what it's like to have money, but that's not how it is. I have a middle-class life. I have a room in London but not a house, nor a BMW.

It's funny how something so normal and mundane that you see every day-your body-can be controversial. The shock value is intense. It's like carrying an art piece around with you all the time.

Even if you're only wearing trainers and a vest, eyeliner will instantly transform you. People always look put-together when their make-up's on and their eyes are popping - just ask Amy Winehouse!

Even talking, I'm super-loud. I could never have that kind of meek, little wispy whimsical lavender and lace voice. It comes from my body. There's no way I can fight it.

All this fashion stuff - who's cool now - is just a bigger version of the cool kids versus the nerds.

I'm a great believer in karma and the vengeance that it serves up to those who are deliberately mean is generally enough for me.

I'm passionate about color. My best friend and I sit and look at Pantone books for fun.

I'm not sure that I am able to feel embarrassment.

I've belched a lot more since I had gall bladder surgery. I don't know why.

I'm naturally a mousy blonde, so I dye my hair, and my eyebrows would disappear if I didn't get through at least a pencil a month.

I'm shameless, and I love a pun. There's a lot of Beth puns.

Go as far as you can see and you will see further.

Sometimes we have to reach rock bottom before we're willing to rise up and overcome our trials.

It is better to ultimately succeed with the truth than to temporarily succeed with a lie.

If you're miserable and someone flies by looking like they have everything in the whole world and it's never going to be you, that's tough to deal with.

If they won't write the kind of books we like to read we shall have to write them ourselves.

The rights of man come not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God.

Revolution will free society of its afflictions, while science will free the individual of his.

He has all the characteristics of a dog - except loyalty.

Music at its essence is what gives us memories.

He who demands mercy and shows none ruins the bridge over which he himself is to pass.
