Pressure only makes you sick. You won't get anything positive out of it.

You can't buy enlightenment, but you can hire a mirror so you can watch it happen.

I have no problem with whatever the next big look is. Just don't try and tell me that only one look is beautiful.

For me, there has never been one definition of beauty. I think we all have something to offer and when beauty shines from within, there can be no denying it

Beauty is deeper than just what you look at in a picture. You could fancy what you like, but as a woman my mother always raised us to believe in ourselves. I'm very grateful for the fact that my mother brought me up that way.

In my country, families are raised as though they are one. Although I am from the Dinka tribe, my parents didn't raise us as the Dinka tribe. They raised us as the Wek family, in the way they believed their children should grow up. So when you leave, the first thing you think is the ones you left behind. It's natural to help them in any way you can. I found a way to support myself rather than asking my Mum to give me money. I would work before school and send money back to pay for their rent and food.

If we don't take care of each other, who will? ... I don't want to ever say, 'I should've done something.'
