I want to play positive role models - women who mean something to other women.

I'm like a boomerang, I always come back.

I never knew modelling was what I wanted to do. I was just meandering through life having fun, having a laugh with my friends.

I'd like a relationship that was like two tree trunks side by side, strong but independent.

When I first started modelling, as I was walking down the catwalk I just thought, 'Please don't fall over, please don't fall over, please don't fall over!'

Modelling is only about the look. In acting, it's the feel that matters.

I've always got on with lads, more than I have with girls.

I think modelling was like the university of life, really. You get to travel but you get thrown into this adult world, which is kind of quite scary.

I don't really see myself as a big supermodel.

If you have a connection to someone, it doesn't matter what their exterior is.

I've always been really private about my personal life. I don't talk about it.

I yearn not for the easy path, but for the right path.  For 'easy' and 'right' are rarely compatible.

No woman really wants a man to carry her off

Loud critics are silenced by loud success.

It is important to note that a transitional phase has to be uncomfortable for you to move on to the next stage, lest procrastination stymies you.

Well, because I have twin seven-year-old boys, I enjoy the gift giving stuff a great deal. We do both Hanukkah and Christmas, so it is a costly, though extremely pleasing proposition.

It is startling to see how the oppressed almost invariably shape themselves in the image of their hated oppressors.

I have indeed - praise be to God - attained my desire in this world, which was to travel through the earth, and i have attained in this respect what no other person has attained to my knowledge.

While many conclusions are drawn... the process of asking questions is more important than the answers... an ongoing process of discovery.

To play down mothering as small is to crack the very foundation on which greatness stands.

Everything in our world, even a drop of dew, is a microcosm of the universe.
