Aimee Mullins

If you watch any John Hughes film of the eighties, that was my childhood experience.

I'm not running around as a continual ray of sunshine. It's just I don't believe in wasting time feeling sorry for myself. Get over it.

When I'm curious about something, I do it full on and take it as far as I go, but when I feel like I've really explored it, I'm OK with putting it aside and going on to something else.

I have always had confidence in my own ability.

Buddha means awareness, the awareness of body and mind that prevents evil from arising in either.

I would've done anything to work with Satyajit Ray.
