What I see is trying to make sure that everybody thinks you have more than what you actually have. What’s the point if you actually don’t have it? If you don’t have it, then you don’t have it. Have what you have. Enjoy that . . . The craft is everything. Don’t be afraid of not being the wealthiest person in the room. Be the smartest person in the room. Be the slickest person in the room. Be the most creative person in the room. Be the most entertaining person in the room. Just be in the room.
I don't necessarily think of myself as a feminist, but I'm a whole person. I'm not just breasts or ass or thighs - I'm a whole being! And it just seems like women aren't necessarily striving to be the whole of themselves.
I'm being all of me, and it feels stupendous. I don't want to leave this feeling.
Just bc u loved and lost doesn't mean stop loving. If u have a nightmare, does it mean u stop dreaming?
I just think it's silly to be stingy with compliments. If you see someone and they strike you as beautiful in any way, why not let them know?
If you can't help me grow, there's no point with you being in my life.
Just because you have a nightmare doesn't mean you stop dreaming.
Find new treasures in yourself. Love doesn't die. Love is unyielding. It's going to come back. The more you love and appreciate yourself, the more prepared you are when the real thing shows up.
Beauty is an understanding of what you have, and it's forgiving yourself of what you don't have, and appreciating all of it.
Ain’t nothing coming easily in this life. Sometimes you gotta work, you gotta grow and it gotta hurt....
If a woman is happy, then your society is happy.
I've been around the world and I've had bras made in different places, and each time I'm experiencing the same troubles: the painful shoulders, the underwire cutting into my flesh.
My son, Jett, is two, and when I was pregnant my nose got bigger, so I got a new one. Everything was bigger for a while after having Jet, but I knew I needed to be able to walk up my stairs without being winded. It took me two years to lose 60 lbs - lots of walking, bike-riding, kick-boxing and performing.
