|
I won't be happy till I'm as famous as God. |
|
I'm tough, ambitious, and I know exactly what I want. If that makes me a bitch, okay. |
|
When I'm hungry, I eat. When I'm thirsty, I drink. When I feel like saying something, I say it. |
|
I am my own experiment. I am my own work of art. |
|
Everyone probably thinks that I'm a raving nymphomaniac, that I have an insatiable sexual appetite, when the truth is I'd rather read a book. |
|
I suppose I sometimes used to act like I wasn't a human being... Sometimes I look back at myself and remember things I used to say, or my hairstyle, and I cringe. |
|
I love horses. I think I may have been one of Henry VIII’s knights in another life, riding through a great forest. |
|
Life's too short to be bitter, I'm too short to be bitter. |
|
Better to live one year as a tiger, then a hundred as sheep. |
|
I must have been Japanese in a previous life. I'm pretty sure I was a warrioress. I can't explain it, I just know. I'm good at fighting - fighting with a big sword." |
|
What else is there for me to conquer? Hopefully my ego. How will I know when I've succeeded? When I stop caring what anyone thinks. |
|
I'd like to think I am taking people on a journey; I am not just entertaining people, but giving them something to think about when they leave |
