Life's challenges can seem almost insurmountable at times. And things appear to be getting not only harder, but weirder as well. One seeks
inspiration and turns to the Bible, the Koran, the Bhagavad Gita, the Tao Te Ching. But sometimes they're not enough. ON COURAGE: "They were doing a full back shot of me in a swimsuit and I thought, Oh my God, I have to be so brave. See, every woman hates herself from behind." -- Cindy Crawford ON SELF-KNOWLEDGE: "Everywhere I went, my cleavage followed. But I learned I am not my cleavage." -- Carole Mallory ON POVERTY: "Everyone should have enough money to get plastic surgery." -- Beverly Johnson ON FATE: "I wish my butt did not go sideways, but I guess I have to face that." -- Christie Brinkley ON ARRIVING: "Because modeling is lucrative, I'm able to save up and be more particular about the acting roles I take." -- Kathy Ireland (star of Alien From L.A. and Danger Island) ON CAREER CHOICES: "My boyfriend thinks I lost my true calling to be a librarian." -- Paulina Porizkova ON PRIORITIES: "I would rather exercise than read a newspaper." -- Kim Alexis ON GEOPOLITICS: "Mick Jagger and I just really liked each other a lot. We talked all night. We had the same views on nuclear disarmament." -- Jerry Hall ON INNER STRENGTH: "I love the confidence that makeup gives me." -- Tyra Banks ON DEATH: "Richard (Gere) doesn't really like me to kill bugs, but sometimes I can't help it." -- Cindy Crawford ON TRAVEL: "I haven't seen the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, the Louvre. I haven't seen anything. I don't really care." -- Tyra Banks ON BREAKTHROUGHS: "Once I got past my anger toward my mother, I began to excel in volleyball and modeling." -- Gabrielle Reece ON EPIPHANY: "I just found out that I'm one inch taller than I thought." -- Christie Brinkley ON HEREDITY: "My husband was just OK looking. I was in labor and I said to him, 'What if she's ugly? You're ugly.'" -- Beverly Johnson ON THE BASICS: "It's very important to have the right clothing to exercise in. If you throw on an old T-shirt or sweats, it's not inspiring for your workout." -- Cheryl Tiegs ON INTRODUCTIONS: "I think most people are curious about what it would be like to be able to meet yourself -- it's eerie." -- Christy Turlington ON COURTSHIP: "The soundtrack to 'Indecent Exposure' is a romantic mix of music that I know most women love to hear, so I never keep it far from me when women are nearby." -- Fabio ON THE CONSERVATION OF MATTER: "I've looked in the mirror every day for 20 years. It's the same face." -- Claudia Schiffer ON TRAGEDY: "The worst was when my skirt fell down to my ankles -- but I had on thick tights underneath." -- Naomi Campbell ON SURVIVAL: "If I'm making a movie and get hungry, I call time-out and eat some crackers." -- Carol Alt ON THE CASTE SYSTEM: "We're not Prince Charles and Princess Di. We don't think of ourselves as royalty. We happen to be working people." -- Christie Brinkley ON OCCUPATIONAL HAZARDS: "I tried on 250 bathing suits in one afternoon and ended up having little scabs up and down my thighs, probably from some of those with sequins all over them." -- Cindy Crawford ON THINKING: "When I model I pretty much blank. You can't think too much or it doesn't work." -- Paulina Porizkova ON LOGIC: "I think, If my butt's not too big for them to be photographing it, then it shouldn't be too big for me." -- Christy Turlington ON BODY PARTS: "I don't know what to do with my arms. It just makes me feel weird and I feel like people are looking at me and that makes me nervous." -- Tyra Banks ON BODY LANGUAGE: "You can usually tell when I'm happy by the fact that I've gained weight." -- Christy Turlington ON DEPRIVATION: "If they had Nautilus on the Concorde, I would work out all the time." -- Linda Evangelista ON VERSATILITY: "I can do anything you want me to do so long as I don't have to speak." -- Linda Evangelista ON THE GRIEF PROCESS: "When my Azzedine jacket from 1987 died, I wrapped it up in a box, attached a note saying where it came from and took it to the Salvation Army. It was a big loss." -- Veronica Webb ON VENGEANCE: "Girls are always getting mad at each other and they tell their hairdresser to purposely mess up another girl's hair." -- Tasha ON MOTIVATION: "It was kind of boring for me to have to eat. I would know that I had to, and I would." -- Kate Moss ON ECONOMICS: "I don't wake up for less than $10,000 a day." -- Linda Evangelista Received from Emma Rome. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
