“A supermodel needed to be able to be on 'Sports Illustrated,' to be able to walk runways, to be able to do beauty ads, to be on covers. And the girls now can no longer be on covers and be in the ads because your actresses have taken over all the jobs. I don't know what happened, but we want our jobs back.”

“Don't ever be afraid to step out and do something different.”

“Modeling is a lonely business.”

“We are all put in different positions for different reasons.”

“You have to be a model and multifaceted, but there's not a lot of ways for a model to be multifaceted because the actresses took all the covers.”

“אני מרגישה שחלק חשוב מהיופי הוא לא רק מה שאתה עושה מבחוץ אלא גם מה שאתה מכניס פנימה. אוכל טרי טוב עם הרבה ירקות יחד עם אהבה ודאגה לזולת. אני מבלה הרבה יותר זמן בשירות אחרים מאשר בשגרת היופי שלי מדי יום.”

“דוגמנית־על הייתה צריכה להיות מסוגלת להיות בספורטס אילוסטרייטד, להיות מסוגלת לצעוד על מסלולים, להיות על שערים. והבנות עכשיו כבר לא יכולות להיות על שערים ולהופיע בפרסומות כי השחקניות שלך השתלטו על כל העבודות. אני לא יודעת מה קרה, אבל אנחנו רוצות את העבודה שלנו בחזרה.”

“אני מעדיפה להתאמן מאשר לקרוא עיתון.”

“Modeling is a lonely business... You don't speak. You don't really portray anything but an image... the business is so superfluous about dealing with the outside, it messes with your mind.”

“I used to waterski on the Niagara River.”

“I feel an important part of beauty is not only what you do on the outside but also what you put into the inside. Good fresh food with many vegetables along with love and caring for others. I spend way more time serving others than I do on my beauty routine daily.”

“Running just makes me happy. I love the freedom of running. I ran until I was seven and a half months pregnant with each of my babies. When I gave birth to my first son, my doctor said I couldn't run for six weeks. I was sneaking back out after eight days.”

“Romance is possible between two people at any age! I love feeling young and acting young as I age.”

“I daily disconnect and read a good book or listen to a good sermon or call a friend or my mom and talk on the phone with my feet up. I also take baths with bath salts that I make myself.”

“The biggest change for me as a mom was realizing I needed to put someone else before me. Now the hardest part about the empty nest is learning to put myself first.”

“I think to be a supermodel you first had to be a model, and I think people are jumping and missing that stage.”

“I really discovered I had thyroid disease by accident. My son was having some health concerns, and as I filled out his patient history I noticed I had a lot of similar symptoms. I mentioned it to the doctor, and he ran blood work and finally an ultrasound of my thyroid.”

“I'm conservative. I was raised conservative, and that's the way I will vote.”

“I never let myself get desperate.”

“I want people to know that blood tests alone won't always detect thyroid disease. My blood panels were normal. I think a lot more people have this disease than are diagnosed.”
