I used to look in the mirror and feel shame, I look in the mirror now and I absolutely love myself.

In life you'll meet a lot of jerks. If they hurt you, tell yourself that it's because they're stupid. That will help keep you from reacting to their cruelty. Because there is nothing worse than bitterness and vengeance. . . Always keep your dignity and be true to yourself.
If I have one message to give to the secular American people, it's that the world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same.
Culture and education are the lethal weapons against all kinds of fundamentalism.

The real war is not between the West and the East. The real war is between intelligent and stupid people.
Modeling is not something you excel because you are clever but is based on physical appearance, but then you have to be a businesswoman, like, to keep your longevity.
My own soul is my most faithful friend. My own heart, my truest confidant
I've never been a competition guy.
As McLuhan says, everything happens at once.
