“When I try to psychoanalyze myself, I find that my desires to look female, to look feminine, and to look beautiful are not exactly the same, but they're woven together so tightly that it's kind of difficult to untangle them.”

“I love being a beautiful woman when I look at myself in the mirror.”

“You know my eyes are not very strong. So every day to make them stronger I force myself to look at the sun. I find it very hard. But do you know what I find harder? That is to look into the blue of your eyes.”

“For myself I make no secret, I look forward with eager desire to seeing the matchless beauty of Christ’s body in the heavenly light.”

“They're looking for something dirty in everything, and if you're looking for something, you'll find it. You have to put up some kind of face for them, and that's the only face they understand.”

“I always try to improve, to find new ways of expressing myself, to keep looking for truth and originality.”

“I looked at myself in the mirror. I looked awful, but I always look awful in the mirror. I keep myself going with the firm belief that my real face is much better looking.”

“When I look in the mirror, I just want to like myself… And if I like myself, then I look good.”

“I don’t think anyone who wants to succeed—male or female—should concentrate on hurdles because you will find them if you are looking for them, and I have been just too busy to spend time looking for obstacles.”

“In the beginning I looked around and, not finding the automobile of my dreams, decided to build it myself.”
