I used to cry myself to sleep wishing I was ugly because of the way men leered at and disrespected me.

I'm allergic to Hawaii. Everything there makes me react in some way.

I think I'm not always what I seem. Most people, when they get to know me, say, 'You know, when I first met you...' People initially think I'm a snob because I'm intensely private.

I'm very proud of being a woman, and as a woman, I don't even like the word 'feminism' because when I hear that word, I associate it with women trying to pretend to be men, and I'm not interested in trying to pretend to be a man. I don't want to embrace manhood; I want to embrace my womanhood.

Your mind and soul are the kings of your physique way more than any exercise you do.

I'm very picky when it comes to men. I come across a man who I'm really attracted to about once every five years.
