“I'm trying to stay as healthy as possible but there's no pressure to be really skinny. No. That's just a bit wrong.”

“A positive pressure produces an attractive gravitational field… Positive pressures are just sort of normal pressures and attractive gravity is normal gravity, so normal pressures produce normal gravity, but it is possible to have negative pressures, and negative pressures produce repulsive gravity, and that's the secret of what makes inflation possible.”

“Sexy for me is a curvy woman — doesn't have to be skinny, which I hate anyway. I'm glad [the fashion industry] is changing slowly a little bit now to get more into the boobs and hips again.”

“Girl, I don't want to fight,
