When we die, no one remembers us for what we weighed. Our weight isn't etched into our headstones.

What we wait around a lifetime for with one person, we can find in a moment with someone else.

There's something almost perfect in the ugly duckling syndrome. Because a sensitivity is tattooed on a part of you no one else can see but can somehow guess is there.

The way I see it, love is an amusement park, and food its souvenir.

Women in our generation, we were taught we can be and do anything as long as we work hard. But you can't work hard enough for two people.

I spent my whole single life trying to be thin just to find someone who'd love me once I got fat.

People can say you're fat because you're filling a void, or you eat for all these emotional reasons. I said, 'I don't need to focus on this anymore. It doesn't matter why I'm fat. Let's fix it.

I'm human. But overall, whenever I see anyone being made fun of or given a hard time, I rush to their defense. I want to help them because I know how it feels.

I hated the reflection in the mirror. I wanted so much to be someone else... I thought that if I was thinner, the rest of my life would change.

Tell the truth, or someone will tell it for you.

If another man wanted me, I was valuable. I was esteemed, no matter that it wasn't self-esteem.

If you want Allah to be persistent in granting you the thing you love, then be persistent in doing the things he loves.

There wasn't a woman alive who could resist a man who paid attention to her, who made her feel like she was the only other person in his world.

The Bible says we must choose two ways of life.

I probably wouldn't have done as many as I did in one year, which I did when I was trying to raise money.

The guilty are alarmed and turn pale at the slightest thunder.

In daylight I belong to the world . . . in the night to sleep and eternity. But in the dusk I'm free from both and belong only to myself . . . and you

A day dawns, quite like other days; in it, a single hour comes, quite like other hours; but in that day and in that hour the chance of a lifetime faces us.

Of all the rewards of virtue, . . . the most splendid is fame, for it is fame alone that can offer us the memory of posterity.

It's surreal to know my dreams are coming true.

Demonisation is the ideological backbone of an unequal society.
