I'm too diplomatic. I tend to edit my mind before I speak - it can be incredibly draining.

How awful to be a perfect beauty! How confusing! God. Can you imagine?

Fear has been my biggest friend. Fear of the unknown. Whenever I've been afraid, I've been very self-protective.

I am concerned about ageism and the loss of beauty - the perception that as you grow older, you 'lose your looks,' which I think is diabolical.

I have previously been a very enthusiastic consumer, and I didn't think about the origins of garments enough.

I take my mentoring responsibilities very seriously.

I would say I live half in New York and half in Claridge's. How decadent! How hysterical!

Rejection is, of course, part of any successful model's career, as ironic as that sounds. It's how you pick yourself up and get on with the job.

I am selective. If I do splash out, it's an investment, and I wear things for years.

Growing up, I had an insane crush on Neil Tennant of the Pet Shop Boys.

I have a regular cleansing, toning and moisturising routine.

Well, what's reality, then? Is it what I think or what other people think?

...you need to travel to see the ocean - I don't need the ocean - I have the sky...

There is no such things as "Islamic terrorism," because terrorism differs from Islam. There's just terrorism, not Islamic terrorism. But the term "Islamic terrorism" has become widespread.

There are a lot of things that come easy, but they're not necessarily worth it. Anything worth having, you work hard for. That's how I feel I am.

Choices are like connecting highways. They all take you to the same place. Some just take longer to get there.

For me, beauty is a physical sensation, something we feel with our whole body. It is not the result of judgement. We do not arrive at it by way of rules. We either feel beauty or we don't.

You don't need 70 people in a White House press conference to tell people what happened there. You need a camera and maybe a couple reporters, and that's it.

The declaration of love may come sooner than expected. Take time before you reciprocate as this may simply be a statement of what they expect from you.

Before you judge someone, walk a mile in his shoes.

I cannot work fast enough. I cannot cope fast enough, really. And just releasing a film is hard.
