Beauty's easy. Modeling is not just about being pretty.
Tyra Banks
You can have all the potential in world, but unless you have confidence, you have nothing.

Models now need to promote themselves, think like businesswomen and diversify their careers by doing other things. Chances are very slim that a mere model will become a household name today.
Tyra Banks
Keep in mind that we should always thank those who hurt us, especially those who did so bad we are forced to transform. They risk the eternal verdict of going to hell just to make us better than who we are.
Tyra Banks
My mom never taught me to be waiting for some prince on a white horse to swipe me off my feet.
Tyra Banks
The runway symbolizes something in society that's very intimidating to women.
