I haven't bought any leather articles for a very long time. My ideal is to be able to avoid all animal products, in food as well as clothing.

The longer I stay in the States, the more I understand how important it is to smile and seem like a nice guy. Like Ronald Reagan. Your image seems to count more than what you do.

I came to live in a country I love; some people label me a defector. I have loved men and women in my life; I've been labeled the bisexual defector. Want to know another secret? I'm even ambidextrous. I don't like labels. Just call me Martina.

I'm not a one-sex person, and yet I hate the term bisexual. It sounds creepy to me, and I don't think I'm creepy. There are times when I feel downright romantic.

I've been active in animal rights and all kinds of environmental stuff and children's charities over the years.

What I would tell girls coming up is just be yourself and don't let people get in the way.

The moment of victory is much too short to live for that and nothing else.
