SUPERMODEL QUOTES
From the show files
Cindy Crawford, on courage
"They were doing a full back shot of me in a swimsuit and I thought, 'Oh my God, I have to be so brave.' See, every woman hates herself from behind."
Carole Mallory, on self-knowledge
"Everywhere I went, my cleavage followed. But I learned I am not my cleavage."
Beverly Johnson, on poverty
"Everyone should have enough money to get plastic surgery."
Christie Brinkley, on fate
"I wish my butt did not go sideways, but I guess I have to face that."
Tatjana Patitz on psychology
"I loved making 'Rising Sun.' I got into the psychology of why she liked to get strangled and tied up in plastic bags. It has to do with low self-worth."
Kathy Ireland, on arriving
"Because modeling is lucrative, I'm able to save up and be more particular about the acting roles I take." (Kathy starred in "Alien From L.A." and "Danger Island," movies so bad you can't even find them on video)

"My boyfriend thinks I lost my true calling to be a librarian."

"Mick Jagger and I just really liked each other a lot. We talked all night. We had the same views on nuclear disarmament."
Tyra Banks on inner strength
"I love the confidence that makeup gives me."
Cindy Crawford on death
"Richard (Gere) doesn't really like me to kill bugs, but sometimes I can't help it."

Beverly Johnson on heredity
"My husband was just OK looking. I was in labor and I said to him, 'What if she's ugly? You're ugly.'"
Cheryl Tiegs on the basics
"It's very important to have the right clothing to exercise in. If you throw on an old T-shirt or sweats, it's not inspiring for your workout."

"I think most people are curious about what it would be like to be able to meet yourself -- it's eerie."
