More quotes by Ashley Graham
It doesn't matter if you're a size 2 or 22, you can be healthy as long as you're taking care of your body, working out, and telling yourself 'I love you' instead of taking in the negativity of beauty standards.
Ashley Graham

Ashley Graham
Love yourself. Be proud of who you are.
Ashley Graham

Embracing uniqueness and showcasing the beauty of our differences is what I am all about so the fact that my words and image can impact positive change is a perk of this job I never expected I would have.
Ashley Graham
Christie Brinkley told me that I needed to become a movie star because I have that something, and then we actually just became friends on set. She has such a young spirit, and is so vivacious. It was such a fun, fun shoot.
Ashley Graham
I am always being asked to gain or lose weight, but I am at a point now where I don't care anymore. I love my body, I love my super-hourglass shape and I love showing it off.
Ashley Graham
As a model, I'm used to having my body scrutinized, and I have a tough skin so I can shake it off. I know I'm the only person that gets to decide how my body should look.
Ashley Graham
Basketball really is a metaphor for life - the intangible skills I have learned on the court, have helped shape the person I am today.
Ashley Graham
Who doesn't want to be comfortable all day long?
Ashley Graham
For me, wearing lingerie isn't about anyone else but me. If I dressed for others I would be a miserable person.
