My one main secret I did right after my pageants days, is I only wash my hair once a week. I tell everyone, 'You have to stop washing your hair so much!'

I'm petrified of bees because I have an anaphylactic reaction to bees.

I'm working with UNESCO on a project called 'Thirst,' which educates children all over China and promotes awareness to the fact that 300 million people in China do not have access to water.

I do an international beauty pageant called Queen of the Universe for UNESCO, and what we do is we build kindergartens around the world.

Some people would rather have a lie that makes them smile than a truth that makes them cry. I'm the opposite; I'd rather have people make me cry with the truth than try to make me smile.

Pageants were a platform for me, and they helped me get to where I am today. You suddenly stop being just another girl, and people want to listen to what you have to say.

I must be very clear in one thing... Being a pageant girl is not who I am or what defines me.

I'm a happily declared chocoholic. I keep it everywhere, even my nightstand.

In the entirety of my life, I have never had an eating disorder.

Oh, I am such a little piggy. Everyone is always mad at me because I eat so much. They're like, 'How are you so skinny?' I eat more than my husband!

I am the lead on NBC's 'Siberia,' and I loved that experience.

Although I was so big, and so rough in many ways, loved hunting, fighting, horseback riding, I loved the piano above everything else...The mountain man's obsession is to get a glimpse of the sea.

Everyone wants the fairy tale, but don’t forget there are dragons in those stories.

Rich gifts wax poor when givers prove unkind.

He who merely knows right principles is not equal to him who loves them.

Remember, America's greatness is based on creating wealth like the rest of the world has never known, and then, making sure it's shared throughout a middle class and even the underprivileged.

I think that for him, I'd risk everything.” ~ Taylor

Chastity works better if you don't keep testing it.

Everything that I'm attempting to do is based on my understanding of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad and what he wanted for his people.

Had he known his death was imminent, he might have gone somewhere else. Instead, he did what we all do. He went about his dull routine as if all the days in the world were still to come. ~pg 4

Theory is the essence of facts. Without theory scientific knowledge would be only worthy of the madhouse.
