I think it's important to get your surroundings as well as yourself into a positive state - meaning surround yourself with positive people, not the kind who are negative and jealous of everything you do.Heidi Klum

I never went to a modeling school, and I don't suggest to anybody that they go to a modeling school... In fashion, one day you're in, the next you're out.Heidi Klum

I don't know why we work, my husband and I. We just do. We are black and white - yin and yang.Heidi Klum

I used to do my own taxes. You know how you buy that gigantic sheet at Staples, add up the restaurants, clothes, and taxis and glue your receipts into the book month by month? The more money I made, the more complicated things got.Heidi Klum

I'm not saying that everyone should swim with sharks, but sometimes you have to jump over your own shadow in order to learn something that you will never forget for the rest of your life. Then you know you can conquer your fears.Heidi Klum

For me, my No. 1 priority in life was to always have a family. If I had not been able to work anymore, then that would have been it. I would definitely choose family over career. It's really great that my field has allowed me to work and let me do things that a woman does naturally.Heidi Klum

I'm someone, the same as my girlfriends, when they say what do you think about this, I don't always say they look fabulous. I say what I think.Heidi Klum

Sometimes random things that you wouldn't think mean anything mean so much to them. With kids, you can say, 'Let's go pick some flowers' or 'There's a snail. Let's investigate that.'Heidi Klum

A little acting debut in Spin City, with Michael J. Fox, which opened up a whole new door for me.Heidi Klum

For me, my business is my business and my house is my house. I don't want the public in my house.Heidi Klum
Copy
I have a normal life and I have this glamorous life, but to me it's two different things.Heidi Klum

No Botox. I don't think I will go there. I don't want to say never, because who knows? Maybe in 10 years I will.Heidi Klum
Copy
I need my products to work and be fast! I don't love having 50 different things in my bathroom, like a different cream for every inch of my face. That's so not me.Heidi Klum

When you are just muscle, you end up being gaunt in the face, and that makes you look older by 5 or 10 years. I don't think of getting older as looking better or worse; it's just different. You change, and that's OK.Heidi Klum

The main thing is healthy eating, exercise, which I do for special events, like if it's Sports Illustrated, or the swim suit catalogue for Victoria's Secret, or my own calendar that I did for the year 2000.Heidi Klum

When I was younger, I had a perm, and it was really big. My mom was a hairdresser, so even my dad had a perm! I looked like a poodle, but it was cool at the time.Heidi Klum
Copy
I was being rejected all the time. Agents would say, 'I don't think you're the type they're looking for.' I was always like, 'You think? I don't want you to think. I want them to think that.' This business is all about someone's opinion, but not the agent or the manager's. How do they know? They're not that person.Heidi Klum
Copy
I'm not someone who plays hard to get. This whole thing about 'Oh, let's exchange numbers' and then people wait four or five days before they call you? I don't see the point. If you feel something, why would you let that pass? You only live once.Heidi Klum
Copy
You shouldn't wait for other people to make special things happen. You have to create your own memories.Heidi Klum
Copy
I always think, look at how people were before they were pregnant. If you were a toned, healthy, energetic person, most likely you will be like that again.Heidi Klum
Copy
I am someone who always gets up again, even if there are setbacks. I have a survivor instinct. I'm not sure where it comes from, but probably from all the little things that make you into who you are.Heidi Klum
Copy
Well, I was already so happy being chosen to do the issue itself, that when I got on the cover, it was even more of a surprise and even more amazing to me.Heidi Klum
Copy
I like basketball, and I've been to three games, which is so much more fun than seeing it on TV, I think.Heidi Klum
Copy
I don't know why I got so lucky. I have to pinch myself often and say, 'Is this just a dream?'Heidi Klum
Copy
I am generally a very happy and easygoing person. I also believe it's always better to meet people with a smile rather than looking cold, especially when you first meet. It changes everything.Heidi Klum
Copy
But I also want to have a family with children one day, which is very important to me.Heidi Klum

So to get back to being intimidated, yes, you get intimidated when you're on the runway with Naomi Campbell, who is the best runway model in the world.Heidi Klum
