“I don't really want to control anyone, to be honest.”
“I eat really clean and really simple: brown rice, a quinoa bowl, grilled fish, veggies, a big salad.”
“Modeling isn't boring.”
“I think eyebrows are the symmetry of the face. If they're not balanced and brushed up in the right way, your face looks kind of messy.”
“It is in the mind and the heart where we meet. It's not the body-the body will change.”
“I rented a house in Favignana, off the coast of Sicily, in the mid or late '90s. There was a revolving door of visiting friends and family - we played games, painted our faces, went swimming naked, cooked big meals, rode around on motorini, and had great cappuccinos.”
“I feel so much more aware of who I am today as a woman since I turned 40.”
“I love modeling, and I missed fashion and my friends and family in fashion and the creativity that I'm able to express through it. I didn't feel I was getting enough of that through my acting.”
“I've gotten out of bed a lot of days for a lot less than $10,000.”
“Without the EPA and the national pollution safeguards it enforces, more children would have asthma. Our water would be less safe. More chemicals would poison our bodies. And more people would die prematurely from respiratory diseases and heart attacks.”
“We are what we see. We are products of our surroundings.”
“Clothing isn't disposable.”
“Sometimes it feels like it hurts when you make a big purchase, so I really believe that the more expensive things should be gems that you keep in your closet, not trends.”
“It's essential to feel beautiful to oneself. Not in an egotistical way, but in a self-loving way.”
“Some fast fashion companies do amazing environmentally friendly capsule collections, but wouldn't it be great if one of these companies just turned around and said everything they produced was?”
“Today, you can gain a bunch of followers doing a dance in a cute bikini, and suddenly, you're a superstar. Or you could just be a beautiful girl posting pictures of yourself and get discovered that way.”
“Fashion has come a long way to embrace different body shapes, ethnicities, even looks. I find it an exciting time culturally for these reasons. Women are really coming into their own.”
“I always feel safe with a woman photographer. I feel that no matter how they interpret something, they understand all sides of it because they are women, and women are complex creatures.”
“I have an incredible sense of direction, but London is confusing. It's a circle, but then it stops being a circle.”
“I know that some of the spiritual beliefs that I have are that if I come from a place of love, and I try to get out of my ego and my desire to want more and be selfish in any shape or form, then whatever I'm doing is not good.”
