“I think that everybody is beautiful in his or her own way.”
Answering the question, "Why did God make some people more gorgeous than others?" as quoted by The Independent (UK) 19 February 2004 http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/heidi-klum-you-ask-the-questions-757078.html.
Context: I think that everybody is beautiful in his or her own way. If you smile a lot and are confident, then you are a gorgeous person. I don't know whether my looks come from God. I'm not really religious. I don't really know what I am. I'm just trying to be a good person. I am who I am.
