"I'm a failure as a woman. My men expect so much of me, because of the image they've made of me– and that I've made of myself– as a sex symbol."

"I defy gravity."

"I'm not afraid of anything. I'm just afraid of being alone."

"A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left."

"I want to be an artist, not a sex legend."
