Actually Barney, this is rather sad and pathetic.

Life's challenges can seem almost insurmountable at
times. One seeks inspiration and turns to the Bible,
the Koran, the Bhagavad Gita, the Tao Te Ching, the
Torah. But sometimes they're not enough. That's when
you need...the wisdom of the supermodels:
ON COURAGE
"They were doing a full back shot of me in a swimsuit
and I thought, 'Oh my God, I have to be so brave.'
See, every woman hates herself from behind."
-Cindy Crawford
ON POVERTY
"Everyone should have enough money to get plastic
surgery."
-Beverly Johnson
ON FATE
"I wish my butt did not go sideways, but I guess I
have to face that."
-Christie Brinkley
ON SELF-ESTEEM
"I loved making 'Rising Sun.' (with Sean Connery &
Wesley Snipes) I got into the psychology of why she
liked to get strangled and tied up in plastic bags. It
has to do with low self-worth."
-Tatjana Patitz
ON ARRIVING
"Because modeling is lucrative, I'm able to save up
and be more particular about the acting roles I take."
-Kathy Ireland, star of the notable films:'Alien From
L.A.' & 'Danger Island'
ON PRIORITIES
"I would rather exercise than read a newspaper."
-Kim Alexis
ON INNER STRENGTH
"I love the confidence that makeup gives me."
-Tyra Banks
ON THE REWARDS OF TRAVELLING
"I haven't seen the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, the
Louvre. I haven't seen anything. I don't really care."
-Tyra Banks
ON BREAKTHROUGHS
"Once I got past my anger towards my mother, I began
to excel in volleyball and modeling."
-Gabrielle Reece
ON HEREDITY
"My husband was just OK looking. I was in labor and I
said to him, 'What if she's ugly? You're ugly!'"
-Beverly Johnson
ON THE BASICS
"It's very important to have the right clothing to
exercise in. If you throw on an old T-shirt or
sweats, it's not inspiring for your workout."
-Cheryl Tiegs
ON PARADOX
"Sometimes I get lonely, but it's nice to be alone."
-Tatjana Patitz
ON TRAGEDY
"The worst was when my skirt fell down to my ankles,
but I had on thick tights underneath."
-Naomi Campbell
ON INSTINCT
"If I'm making a movie and get hungry, I call time-out
and eat some crackers."
-Carol Alt
ON OCCUPATIONAL HAZARDS
"I tried on 250 bathing suits in one afternoon and
ended up having little scabs up and down my thighs,
probably from some of those with sequins all over
them."
-Cindy Crawford
ON THOUGHT
"When I model I pretty much go blank. You can't think
too much or it doesn't work."
-Paulina Porizkova
ON MOTIVATION
"It was kind of boring for me to have to eat. I would
know that I had to, and I would."
-Kate Moss
ON DEPRIVATION
"If they had Nautilus on the Concorde, I would work
out all the time."
-Linda Evangelista
ON ECONOMICS
"I don't even wake up for less than $10,000 a day."
-Linda Evangelista
ON VERSATILITY
"I can do anything you want me to do, so long as I
don't have to speak."
-Linda "I'm an Embarrassment to Canada" Evangelista |
