6. "The fruit of your own hard work is the sweetest."

11. "It’s not about the bags he buys me, or the rocks, or the dinners, or the holidays he can take me on. I’m a self-made girl. I know I’ve achieved a lot already and I don’t need a man for those things. I can buy myself the most expensive bag or the biggest rock I want. For me, it has to be about being my best friend, spending quality time with me, being able to have amazing conversations together even while we are sitting in a house or a car." 

12. “I need my man to be mine. I need attention from him. I need to be loved. I need to be nurtured. I also need peace and stability in my relationships." 


13. "I don't think one can look for love. I don't think you can decide 'I will marry this guy'. I think you have to go with the flow. I think when you're young you meet different people and I guess when the time is right and if it is the right person, I think you automatically know." 


14. “Never lose focus of what you want for yourself. People will try and pull you down. There might be things in your life, which will deter your confidence. There might be days when you want to break down; there could be days when you feel like giving up. It’s extremely important to be emotionally strong and be focused. Do it your own way. And don’t be afraid of making mistakes.” 


15. “YES! I am a Woman. I have breasts AND a cleavage! You got a problem!!??”
