More quotes by Tyra Banks
I actually don't miss modeling and I think the reason why is because of America's Next Top Model.
Tyra Banks
I'm not just retiring from the runway, I'm retiring from all modeling. God, I love saying that! When I was 18, my mom said I have to have a plan. I decided I'd leave on top. I want to be like the athletes who seem stuck in time. When you see them at 50, you say they probably can still run like a champ.
Tyra Banks
The runway symbolizes something in society that's very intimidating to women.
Tyra Banks
Pledge that you will look in the mirror and find the unique beauty in you.
Tyra Banks
Once you plant seeds of success, your tree will bear fierce fruit.

I think a lot of business students chase money and then they burn out. They have early retirements, not because they want to retire and chill... But because they hate their job and they are miserable. I don't chase money.

My mother always told me that came first. I started modeling in 11th grade and it was something that I did after school and on the weekends. School is so important and modeling should be treated as an extracurricular activity as opposed to a career until you graduate high school.
Tyra Banks
You can't model for the rest of your life, so it is important to diversify your career.
Tyra Banks
Modeling chose me, I didn't choose modeling.

My aunt used to call me light bulb head because my head is small at the bottom and bigger at the top. But it was a term of endearment.
Tyra Banks

Tyra Banks
I know how to dress for my body to give off illusions, and I like to teach women about it - it's important for women to have that power and that arsenal... tricks that make you feel good when you walk outside.
Tyra Banks
I've helped some of my classmates on how to strategize to get to the next level of their businesses. And it's interesting, because here I am sitting there from the entertainment industry and the fashion industry, and I'm giving a billionaire that has a business that's been in his family for 300 years - I'm giving him advice about strategy!
Tyra Banks
Every woman has a story.
Tyra Banks
Take responsiblilty for yourself because no one's going to take responsibility for you.
Tyra Banks
I kind of like the wind in my face. If it wasn’t there, I don’t know if I would push as hard.
Tyra Banks
You can have all the potential in world, but unless you have confidence, you have nothing.
Tyra Banks
I look at myself and pick out the things I don't like. No matter how much I work out, I never get muscle tone in my butt and hip area.
Tyra Banks
I hate when models say 'Oh, plastic surgery is just a wrong thing. What are you talking about? You won the genetic lottery. You look like this specimen that's making people everywhere feel insecure and you're going to ridicule someone for getting plastic surgery?
Tyra Banks
Black women don't have the same body image problems as white women. They are proud of their bodies.
