When I walk down the runway, my main goal is to not think about the people watching. The idea of all eyes on me would make me too uncomfortable. As I step on the runway, I take a deep breath, focus on a point in the distance, and go! ~Gisele Bundchen
#quotes #gisele-bundchen #modeling

There is a very simple secret to being happy. Just let go of your "demand" on this moment. Any time you have a demand on the moment to give you something or remove something, there is suffering.

I watched her for a long time, memorizing her shoulders, her long-legged gait. This was how girls left. They packed up their suitcases and walked away in high heels. They pretended they weren't crying, that it wasn't the worst day of their lives.

I would like, if I can, to broaden the possibilities of the musical theater. I think there is a better "Oklahoma!" someplace, a better "West Side Story." And I would like to be mixed up in it. ~Richard Rodgers
