I can't remember when I wasn't an animal rights activist.
I don't enjoy other people's dramas, and I don't enjoy mine.
I fully expect to be doing yoga for the rest of my life.
I want to be a person who makes a quiet difference.
I was really involved with other people's opinions of me, and it got heightened during my film career. I don't have any opinion, good or bad about it, it just was. It's not the way I feel now, and I think yoga has a lot to do with that.
I'm very touched on a deep level by cruelty to animals.
I've always loved animals and I always thought that they were, if not better, then the absolute equal of any two legged creature that God ever created.
It's been my experience that the longer I do yoga, the more I want to know, the more I am able to understand and the less judgmental I am.
It's not so much what do I want to be doing in 15 years, it's how I want to be in 15 years.
Looking at beautiful things is what makes me the happiest.
The quality of my life has changed dramatically - not the events - but the way I handle them and my priorities and my sense of drama.
You know, the fashion business is this legendary repository of young girls on their way to getting husbands. I really wanted to work.
