You have to find the peace and patience within yourself to be a model and an example to others and not judge.

I believe the accepted model of capitalism that demands endless growth deserves the blame for the destruction of nature and it should be displaced. Failing that I try to work with those companies and help them change the way they think about our resources.

I don't really have a style icon but I really admire the way people dress like Gaga Rihanna and Gwen Stefani. It's good to be inspired by singers who write music and dress incredibly - rather than models and people in the fashion industry who dress immaculately anyway because it's their style.

When I finally got up to Industrial Light And Magic to work on the 'Star Wars' movies as a model-maker it felt like dying and going to heaven.

I do like strong women in my movies. I have five sisters so I've just grown up with that model.

I couldn't survive just doing independent movies. And I'd rather do modelling than movies or TV I didn't like.

The regular guy still relates to him and Howard is a $500 million guy now who dates a model and drives about in a limo all day. But Howard still knows how to make a plumber laugh and those guys still have him on in the morning because he is a real talent.

If you're the village blacksmith and a model T comes along you better become a mechanic. People's lives are better when they get news online versus having to wait for the morning paper. It's a lot more efficient a lot more real time a lot less waste.

Well I was eight years old and I have an older cousin who is three years older than me and she was doing acting commercials and modeling at the time and... to see my cousin doing that was really inspiring and I wanted to do it. So I went to my mom and I asked her if I could do it and for the acting part of it she made me study for a year.

My mom was a photographer and whenever they needed a baby for a modelling job she'd stick me in front of the camera. That's how it started.

My goal is to be a household name and when I do that I want to help other girls become models and maybe even launch a fashion line with my mom like Beyonce did with her mother. My mom has such a good eye and it's always been a dream of hers.

We always had 'Vogue' in our house. But when I was around 12 my Mom finally took me seriously about modeling and put a stack of magazines in front of me then told me to study all the poses. The ones I loved the most were in 'Vogue.'

My mom was a model. She had me at 20 so she was a young mother.

My memory of my mom is a wine glass in one hand and a cigarette in the other. She was a runway fashion model and she was quite a glamorous woman.

My mom cooked pot roast with noodles and frozen vegetables. Or she'd make spaghetti or hot dogs, or heat up TV dinners. Before I started modeling at age 19, I was 5'8" and weighed 165 pounds.

Sure my childhood was unusual. All these eccentric wild people frequented our home: rock stars drag queens models bikers freaks. But I was not this little rich girl. My mom and I lived in an apartment.

My mom is very confident and she was always a role model of mine.

And to this day my Mom is my role model.

Mothers don't let your daughters grow up to be models unless you're present.

I don't know what my version of a relationship or marriage is yet because the typical model seems a little broken to me.

Each person must live their life as a model for others.

I met a lot of young girls modelling and they were like 'Oh I'm running around town and people are taking my picture' while I was saving receipts and learning how to be self-employed.

Educationists should build the capacities of the spirit of inquiry creativity entrepreneurial and moral leadership among students and become their role model.

What guides Marxism then is a different model of society and a different conception of the function of the knowledge that can be produced by society and acquired from it.

Art owes its origin to Nature herself... this beautiful creation the world supplied the first model while the original teacher was that divine intelligence which has not only made us superior to the other animals but like God Himself if I may venture to say it.

The pleasures of the imagination are as it were only drawings and models which are played with by poor people who cannot afford the real thing.

Do not quench your inspiration and your imagination do not become the slave of your model.

Imagine for yourself a character a model personality whose example you determine to follow in private as well as in public.

People always ask me if I'm going to stop modeling because I have started an acting career. I hope to continue to model for years to come.

I do portraits. I usually do live models in a class environment but I've been painting at home more. I really love the human form and I love faces. I've tried to do landscapes a few times.
