Getting and keeping my immunity became very important to me. For I needed to take care of myself and my family. No one else was worried about me.

Monica Lewinsky
I was worried about my mom more than I was worried about the president. And then I was worried about the president, and then I was worried about myself.
Monica Lewinsky
My creativity comes from an unhoned place, if 'unhoned' is a word.
Monica Lewinsky
Changing behaviours begins with evolving beliefs.
Monica Lewinsky
I know I will never have an affair with a married man again.
Monica Lewinsky
But, clearly to me, what I've come to see is that that happened because I didn't have enough feelings of self-worth. So that I didn't feel that ... I was worthy of being number one to a man.
Monica Lewinsky
Building a more compassionate society is going to be a bilateral exercise between individuals and the brands that represent their aspirations, their values and their truths. People make brands. If people are compassionate, brands will be compassionate in return.
Monica Lewinsky
I did though at least expect him to correct the false statements he made when he was trying to protect the Presidency. Instead, he talked about it as though I had laid it all out there for the taking. I was the buffet and he just couldn't resist the dessert.
Monica Lewinsky
I'm kind of known for something that's not so great to be known for.
Monica Lewinsky
I chose to not wear a wire and tape people. I chose to not get immunity until - were accepted, whatever - until the independent counsel's office was comfortable with what I said was the truth.
