I would not recommend a teen getting into modeling if they're not solid when it comes to their grades and school. That comes first.

More quotes by Tyra Banks
I won't say if I'm single or dating or married or divorced. There's boundaries.
Tyra Banks
I love being able to go to a store, let's say... a store like Topshop or Zara or maybe even Macy's, depends on what department, and not have to look at the price tag.
Tyra Banks
I don't like looking at awards everyday because I feel like they can make you lazy. So, I give them to my Mom and let her look at it everyday. They are symbols of the hard work she put into me. Her sacrifices allowed me and my team to win those awards. But I don't look at any awards everyday.
Tyra Banks
A smart model is a good model.
Tyra Banks
It was hard to get guys to notice me, period, because I was so skinny and all my friends were curvy. Plus, I used to be very nervous in front of guys.
Tyra Banks
I've always seen modeling as a stepping stone.
Tyra Banks
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
I'm competitive with myself. I always try to push past my own borders.
Tyra Banks
I didn't have a job because nobody would hire me. My friends were getting hired, and I couldn't even get a job interview. That really rocked my self-esteem because I didn't understand what I did wrong on those job applications.
Tyra Banks
I try to keep my private life kind of private.
Tyra Banks
I've made millions of dollars with the body I have, so where's the pain in that? If I was in pain, I would have dieted. The pain is not there - the pain is someone printing a picture of me and saying those horrible things.
Tyra Banks
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.
Tyra Banks
I was always a good student. I wasn't the A-plus student, but I studied really hard, and I probably had a 3.2. I always wished that I had the capacity to get straight A's, but I didn't. I didn't beat myself up about it, but I really studied hard for my grades.
Tyra Banks
In high school I definitely had a clique of friends. And what I loved about it was that we were healthy and good girls.
Tyra Banks
I have so many goals.
Tyra Banks
Modeling is being a ho, but making it fashion.
Tyra Banks
Don't chase the money... chase the passion. Because that's what is going to keep you happy and motivated and jumping out of that bed Monday morning.
Tyra Banks
Pledge that you will look in the mirror and find the unique beauty in you.
Tyra Banks
When I think about moguls, I think like Donald Trump who... owns NYC practically. That's a mogul. I feel like I'm on my way to a lot more, but mogul is a really serious thing. I think it's a word that gets thrown around easily.
Tyra Banks
You can have all the potential in world, but unless you have confidence, you have nothing.
