I find the whole concept of being ‘sexy’ embarrassing and confusing.

IT IS TIME THAT WE ALL SEE GENDER AS A SPECTRUM INSTEAD OF TWO SETS OF OPPOSING IDEALS.

There's nothing wrong with being afraid. It's not the absence of fear, it's overcoming it. Sometimes you've got to blast through and have faith.

Both men and women should feel free to be sensitive. Both men and women should feel free to be strong... It is time that we all perceive gender on a spectrum not as two opposing sets of ideals.

Gender equality, historically has been predominantly a women's movement for women. But I think the impact of gender inequality and how it's affecting men hasn't really been addressed.

My idea of sexy is that less is more. The less you reveal the more people can wonder.

Hermione uses all these big long tongue twister words. I don't know what she's going on about half the time!

I have collections of quirky things from places I've been to, like a set of Russian dolls.

I don't have makeup on all the time, but when I want, I have fun with my friends choosing clothes and putting nail polish on.

Feeling beautiful has nothing to do with what you look like. I promise.

All I can do is follow my instincts, because I'll never please everyone.

As long as you understand that you find happiness through family, friends and love, then money is just a nice bonus.

There is no such thing as garbage, just useful stuff in the wrong place.

I’m not investigating race as much as I’m investigating intimacy.

Grain by grain, a loaf. Stone upon stone, a palace.

If you're going to run a small business, you need to know what everyone is doing, be the first one in and the last one out, and work weekends.

It was literally like the video game!

It's always great to have two inspirations, one that has more of an editorial purpose and one for more of an everyday, wearable approach.

When I'm not writing music, I'm playing guitar, or reading philosophy. So all I have left is just an hour or two for Claudia Schiffer.

You always think you could have done more. That's why you need a friend - to tell you you did all you could.

If the nails are weak, your house will collapse. If your verbs are weak and your syntax is rickety, your sentences will fall apart.
