When I was younger I always wanted to dress like Kim [Kardashian], but her style doesn't necessarily fit my body type.

Remember, people only rain on your parade because they're jealous of your sun and tired of their shade.

If I don't like something that's going on in my life, I change it. And I don't sit and complain about it for a year.

I've made mistakes in my life for sure.

Embrace your curves and who you are. I feel proud if young girls look up to me and say, "I'm curvy, and I'm proud of it now".

I'm not trying to influence anyone else; I'm not saying, "Do what I do." I think it's a little pretentious to say, "I'm a role model"; I would never say that, and I don't think of myself that way.

I love when people underestimate me and then become pleasantly surprised.

It's time to recognise the Armenian Genocide.

That's what is was to be young — to be enthusiastic rather than envious about the good work other people could do.

I love sleep. I need sleep. We all do, of course. There are those people that don't need sleep. I think they're called 'successful.

There are a lot of funny people and a lot of unfunny people. Some of them are women and some of them are dudes.

Interrogate yours hidden assumptions

Until you are somewhat comfortable and confident and embrace who you are, as a person, you can't possibly love somebody else because you don't like yourself that much.

I don't like department stores. I had a chain of department stores back in 1994 which was Lewis's and Owen Owen, only for a short time, and I found department stores personally difficult.

You can be obsessed with the bad things people say and the good things; either way, you're obsessed with yourself, and I'm not - you can become unhinged so easily.
