The beauty of life, is that you don't have to be modernly beautiful to live it.

Only a man's character is the real criterion of worth.

No matter how plain a woman may be, if truth and honesty are written across her face, she will be beautiful.

Some athletes feel they have to show they're confident and talk about what they're going to achieve. I don't think there's anything wrong with just quietly believing in yourself and just getting on with it. You don't have to talk about it all the time; you want your performances to show for it.

Alicia Silverstone from 'Clueless' plays the role of the quintessential buttoned-up beauty who still knows how to throw down. She's intimidating from a distance but happy to befriend the new girl and show her the lay of the land.

It bothered me that women were taught they can't be beautiful just being themselves - it filled me with rage.

My oomph factor helped me enter B-town. I have a naturally gifted body.

I've always been very girly.

I think being the conventional beauty is limiting, so I'm glad I'm not that. If I looked different, I wouldn't have the great opportunities I've had.

I wouldn't play glamour for glamour.

Every person has one particular time in his life when he is more beautiful than he is ever going to be again. For some it is at seven, for others at seventeen or seventy, and as Laura Fleischman read out loud from Shakespeare, I remember thinking that for her it was probably just then.

The soul that is within me no man can degrade.
