Yes, but everyone is beautiful to someone.

Beauty has a lot to do with character.

I'd rather have huge success and huge failures than travel in the middle of the road.

Today I see beauty everywhere I go, in every face I see, in every single soul.

Perfection is boring. If a face doesn't have mistakes, it's nothing.

I'm going to insult a whole industry here, but it seems like TV is for people who can't do film. I'm not talking about actresses; I'm talking about lighting people. Lighting on TV is just so... it's sinful, it really is.

Today I choose life. Every morning when I wake up I can choose joy, happiness, negativity, pain... To feel the freedom that comes from being able to continue to make mistakes and choices - today I choose to feel life, not to deny my humanity but embrace it.

Soon I realized that if beauty equalled forgiveness, I was never going to be forgiven.

I'm very passionate about what I do.

There are two types of people in the world: people who are passionate about things, and people who've had their passion punched, beaten, or whatever out of them.

I also have this incredible love for women.

When I was growing up, the men in my life were abusive; women were the ones I ran to for comfort.

I spent much of my life hiding.

Beauty is about perception, not about make-up. I think the beginning of all beauty is knowing and liking oneself. You can't put on make-up, or dress yourself, or do you hair with any sort of fun or joy if you're doing it from a position of correction.

Life is too short to spend hoping that the perfectly arched eyebrow or hottest new lip shade will mask an ugly heart.

That's why I began doing makeup in the first place: I was hoping that through helping people see the beauty in themselves, I could try and find it in me.

Yes, but everyone is beautiful to someone.

I think the responsibility lies with the fashion world as a collective. We have to demand more variety.

Another thing that's pathetic is this rule that you have to look ugly to get respect as an actress. Jessica Lange had to make herself look really bad to prove that she had amazing talent.

The faces I see in the modeling industry can get dull.

Growing up, my ideals were Barbra Streisand, Cher, and my mom.

Fear is the most debilitating emotion in the world, and it can keep you from ever truly knowing yourself and others - its adverse effects can no longer be overlooked or underestimated. Fear breeds hatred, and hatred has the power to destroy everything in its path.

Fights with my father were really quite brutal. I would not live his vision. I would not become who he wanted me to be. Everything I did was criticized. I would spend three months drawing something and show him, and he would look up from his paper and just look back down. I got no approval from him for anything I did that was creative.

I don't use 'always do this,' 'never say that' and I never give advice because I'm not the end-all, be-all authority.

I was absolutely lost in love and life when I did my drawings. Time stood still.

It's our hearts and brains that we should exercise more often. You can put on all the makeup you want, but it won't make your soul pretty.

While traveling around the world, I've had the opportunity to work with every living beauty icon. I've learned to appreciate idiosyncrasy. The fact is, there is really no such thing as 'normal' - everybody's different, and that is the essence of their beauty.

I never went wrong by being myself.

Perfection is boring. If a face doesnt have mistakes its nothing.

There are no rules when it comes to makeup!

I can tell you that if I'd had an opportunity to meet with King Abdullah of the Saudis - which I have not - he would be very surprised to hear what I have to say.

In times like these, it is helpful to remember that there have always been times like these.

I certainly think we're going to see more and more graphic novels and more illustrated novels.

My happiest times in the theater are when I do ensemble pieces. I really got into theater because of that closeness.

I wish I were stronger in areas. Not so consumed or distracted.

Of course, the genesis of a good portion of the gridlock in Congress does not reside in Congress itself. Ultimate reform will require each of us, as voters and Americans, to take a long look in the mirror, because in many ways, our representatives in Washington reflect the people who have sent them there.

'Irma Voth' is my sixth book, but it's only the third time I've featured Mennonite settings and characters.

Bulldogs are adorable with faces like toads that have been sat on.

In my son's kindergarten, they're telling us how to get him into Stanford. By their advice, I'm doing everything wrong, because I'm trying to make him happy rather than putting him through as many piano lessons as possible.

Below us the Thames grew lighter, and all around below were the shadows - the dark shadows of buildings and bridges that formed the base of this dreadful masterpiece.

A crafty enemy will set a weak ambush you are meant to break through. Confident because you have dealt with the threat, your guard relaxed, you walk into the second, stronger ambush.

At the end of the day, I'm greatly appreciative of all the fans that I was able to acquire over the years.

I can read the Tarot cards and believe in ghosts.

I just have a respect for my audience. That seems to be pretty logical.

It is well with me only when I have a chisel in my hand.

My sister is older than me and would often go off, so I grew up alone in a sense. I had to amuse myself and developed a wonderful fantasy world and quite happily lived in it. I think, in adulthood, that helped me. I love pottering on my own.

Most successful people move from fear to failure; to faith and then to fruitfulness. That's the trend.

The pure mathematician, like the musician, is a free creator of his world of ordered beauty.

A loser doesn't know what he'll do if he loses, but talks about what he'll do if he wins, and a winner doesn't talk about what he'll do if he wins, but knows what he'll do if he loses.
