I would not recommend a teen getting into modeling if they're not solid when it comes to their grades and school. That comes first. My mother always told me that came first.

I am learning how to delegate and how to empower people.

Designers are very fickle. I never wanted to be a victim of that. You're in one minute, out the next.

On 'America's Top Model,' I've always told my girls to smile with their eyes. We call it 'smizing.' Over the years, it's actually become part of pop culture. I would be walking down the street, and girls would say, 'Smize!'

I love food and feel that it is something that should be enjoyed. I eat whatever I want. I just don't overeat.

I love all kinds of bread. Whenever I crave junk food, I want salty things like peanuts or potato chips.

I believe in karma, and I believe if you put out positive vibes to everybody, that's all you're going to get back.

You don't have to carry a designer bag that costs more than a car to look cool.

All men that date me have to know that their name may end up in a pop song.

You have to have a sense of humor about life to get through it.

I'm just very amused by five-year-old humor.

I attribute my success to this - I never gave or took any excuse.

How very little can be done under the spirit of fear.

The world is put back by the death of every one who has to sacrifice the development of his or her peculiar gifts to conventionality.

If I could give you information of my life, it would be to show how a woman of very ordinary ability has been led by God in strange and unaccustomed paths to do In His service what He has done in her. And if I could tell you all, you would see how God has done all, and I nothing.

Live your life while you have it. Life is a splendid gift. There is nothing small in it. Far the greatest things grow by God's law out of the smallest. But to live your life, you must discipline it.

The very elements of what constitutes good nursing are as little understood for the well as for the sick. The same laws of health or of nursing, for they are in reality the same, obtain among the well as among the sick.

A dark house is always an unhealthy house, always an ill-aired house, always a dirty house. Want of light stops growth and promotes scrofula, rickets, etc., among the children. People lose their health in a dark house, and if they get ill, they cannot get well again in it.

I have lived and slept in the same bed with English countesses and Prussian farm women... no woman has excited passions among women more than I have.

Women have no sympathy and my experience of women is almost as large as Europe.

If a patient is cold, if a patient is feverish, if a patient is faint, if he is sick after taking food, if he has a bed-sore, it is generally the fault not of the disease, but of the nursing.

Don't threaten me with love, baby. Let's just go walking in the rain.

Love is like a faucet, it turns off and on.

A kiss that is never tasted, is forever and ever wasted.

Sometimes it's worse to win a fight than to lose.

There's no damn business like show business - you have to smile to keep from throwing up.

We relish news of our heroes, forgetting that we are extraordinary to somebody too.

There's a little vanity chair that Charlie gave me the first Christmas we knew each other. I'll not be parting with that, nor our bed - the four-poster - I'll be needing that to die in.

I cry out for order and find it only in art.

One has to grow up with good talk in order to form the habit of it.

Stardom can be a gilded slavery.

The truth is that there is only one terminal dignity - love. And the story of a love is not important - what is important is that one is capable of love. It is perhaps the only glimpse we are permitted of eternity.

When traveling with someone, take large does of patience and tolerance with your morning coffee.

Legends die hard. They survive as truth rarely does.

Every human being on this earth is born with a tragedy, and it isn't original sin. He's born with the tragedy that he has to grow up... a lot of people don't have the courage to do it.

The hardest years in life are those between ten and seventy.

It is only in sorrow bad weather masters us; in joy we face the storm and defy it.

It is always the simple that produces the marvelous.

The fate of love is that it always seems too little or too much.

Human relations are built on feeling, not on reason or knowledge. And feeling is not an exact science; like all spiritual qualities, it has the vagueness of greatness about it.

It is little men know of women; their smiles and their tears alike are seldom what they seem.

With renunciation life begins.

No one succeeds without effort... Those who succeed owe their success to perseverance.

The degree of freedom from unwanted thoughts and the degree of concentration on a single thought are the measures to gauge spiritual progress.

If there is anything besides the Self there is reason to fear? Who sees the second? First, the ego arises and sees objects as external. If the ego does not rise, the Self alone exists and there is no second.

One must realise his Self in order to open the store of unalloyed happiness.

Who am I? Not the body, because it is decaying; not the mind, because the brain will decay with the body; not the personality, nor the emotions, for these also will vanish with death.

The body dies, but the spirit that transcends it cannot be touched by death.

Society is the body; individuals are its members, its limbs. Just as the various limbs help and co-operate with one another and thus are happy, so each must unite with others in being helpful to all in thought, speech and action... One may see to the good of one's own group, i.e., the group that is immediate to him, and then proceed to others.

Time is only an idea. There is only the Reality. Whatever you think it is, it looks like that. If you call it time, it is time. If you call it existence, it is existence, and so on. After calling it time, you divide it into days and nights, months, years, hours, minutes, etc. Time is immaterial for the Path of Knowledge.
