There's nothing better than achieving your goals, whatever they might be.

Mum doesn't like it when I mention that Dad's a better cook than her. He was born in Spain and spent eight years in Portugal and is exceptional at lots of cuisines.

I'd rather be on my own than be with a violent man.

You feel a sense of elation seeing yourself on a billboard.

I'm not a downtrodden woman. I just won't be.

I try to stick to a certain diet all the time, and then when I feel like a reward, I have it. I try to stick to no dairy, no sugar, no wheat.

I'm not that materialistic. I like nice clothes and that, but I don't spend lots of money on stuff. I'm not really into TV, I don't have an iPod, I've got a gramophone.
