If we don't take that time (to be romantic), then it's karate, then it's ballet, and then there's Christmas, and then my husband is flying off to tour around the world.

I think you always need to try your best, but at the same time you can only do what you can do. Don't beat yourself up about it.

I'm not white-picket-fence perfect.

I like to dream, but I like to make things happen.

I was determined to experience the birth, and I am so scared at the thought of having my abdomen cut open. So I was lucky that the birth went very smoothly.

It's important to keep a balanced diet, but I'm not a fan of deprivation. If I want a cheeseburger, I am not only going to eat that cheeseburger, but I'm going to enjoy that cheeseburger.

You should spend your money on some nice lingerie. Big wool cotton pants, that just doesn't work. You have to feel sexy.

I represent more the healthy, happy, curvy, strong woman. And that sounds much healthier to me than being 80 pounds and skinny as a bean.

Pursue success, long after any sane person would have given up.

Because I'm on the runway with some of the best models in the industry.

My career never suffered from my not being skinny. I never did catwalk work because I was always too big. I couldn't get the clothes over my hips.

Marketers are focused and sales people are scattered!

God's codpiece, you're very kind

Meditation is mind’s vacation!

That throbbing thing in my chest can hardly be called a heart. It has been wrung out and deformed into something merely functional. Nothing can revive it.

Spontaneity is one of the joys of existence, especially if you prepare for it in advance.

Basically, I live to do gigs.

I knew I had to be the best at something, otherwise I would be nothing. I knew I wanted the world to know about Brigitte Bardot.

That which serves our spirits enhances our bodies. That which diminishes our spirits diminishes our bodies.

I'm totally not a nostalgic person. I always look to the future and as much as I've enjoyed the ride until now and the different phases, I'm more excited about the next music.

If you begin by sacrificing yourself to those you love, you will end by hating those to whom you have sacrificed yourself.
