| Johnny Depp | As a teenager I was so insecure. I was the type of guy that never fitted in because he never dared to choose. I was convinced I had absolutely no talent at all. For nothing. And that thought took away all my ambition too. | 101 |
| Sophia Bush | Being a teenager is an amazing time and a hard time. It's when you make your best friends - I have girls who will never leave my heart and I still talk to. You get the best and the worst as a teen. You have the best friendships and the worst heartbreaks. | 101 |
| Thomas Friedman | When I was growing up, my parents told me, 'Finish your dinner. People in China and India are starving.' I tell my daughters, 'Finish your homework. People in India and China are starving for your job.' | 101 |
| Bryan White | We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public.  | 101 |
| Fred G. Gosman | Teenagers who are never required to vacuum are living in one. | 101 |
| Julie Burchill | As a precocious teen I dreamed of being Graham Greene. Well, as it turned out, I never wrote a great novel, sadly, and I never converted to Catholicism, happily, but I did do one thing he did. That is, in middle age I moved to a seaside town and got into a right barney with the local powers-that-be. | 101 |
| Paula Garces | The first time I got pregnant, I was a young girl - I was 17 years old. Although I knew right away that I wanted to keep my child, being a pregnant teen was an extremely scary experience for me. Luckily, my family and friends were very supportive and were there for me every step of the way. | 101 |
| Shelley Hennig | People ask me, 'How's 'Teen Wolf?' and I tell them it's literally the best job I've ever had. It's hard. Everybody wants to be a series regular. It's something that a lot of actors would kill to have. That being said, it's very demanding of you, in so many different ways. | 101 |
| Meg Cabot | I actually love writing for teens best. I had such an awful time in my own teen years - I love having the chance to relive them through my fiction. | 101 |
| Blake McIver Ewing | When I was 14, I came very close to becoming a gay teen suicide 'statistic,' but I then turned to music, my piano, my loved ones, and discovered that it does in fact get better. | 101 |
| Caitlin Flanagan | Female adolescence is - universally - an emotionally and psychologically intense period. | 101 |
| Adelaide Kane | I didn't know what was going to happen with 'Teen Wolf.' I was only scheduled to do four episodes for them, but they kept me on, and I was like, 'Sweet! I'm still employed! That's awesome!' And then, they let me know that they were considering having me for the second half of the season. | 101 |
| Akiva Schaffer | Cartoons are the best stuff on TV. 'Wonder Showzen,' 'Aqua Teen,' 'SpongeBob,' and, of course, 'South Park' - one of the funniest shows ever made. | 101 |
| Robin Wasserman | For me, the teen years were all about searching for a place for myself, wondering why I seemed so different than everyone else, wondering especially why no one could look past the surface and figure out who I really was underneath. | 101 |
| Sherwood Smith | When I turned thirteen and took a typing class, with typical early teen enthusiasm and total lack of critical ability, I started sending my stuff to publishers once I'd babysat long enough to earn the postage. | 101 |
| Cory Wells | I was a big fan of black gospel. As a kid, there were black groups I sang with from my teen years to my early 20s. | 101 |
| David Elkind | Friendships in childhood are usually a matter of chance, whereas in adolescence they are most often a matter of choice. | 101 |
| Robyn Lively | This is actually something no one knows, but my mom was really the one who created the entire style for 'Teen Witch.' I'm dead serious. She was super involved, and is super creative, so I wore a lot of my actual clothes in the movie. Truly, Louise was my mom's vision. She really created an iconic character. | 101 |
| Mary Pipher | Adolescence is when girls experience social pressure to put aside their authentic selves and to display only a small portion of their gifts. | 101 |
| Jemima Khan | There's a theory about fame: the moment it strikes, it arrests development. Michael Jackson remained suspended in childhood, enjoying sleepovers and funfairs; Winona Ryder, an errant teen who dabbled in shoplifting and experimented with pills; George Clooney, a 30-year-old commitment-phobe, never quite ready yet to settle down. | 101 |
| John Knowles | Teenagers today are more free to be themselves and to accept themselves. | 101 |
| Dean Kamen | You have teenagers thinking they're going to make millions as NBA stars when that's not realistic for even 1 percent of them. Becoming a scientist or engineer is. | 102 |
| Douglas Rushkoff | Once a teen has been identified as part of the 'target market,' he knows he's done for. The object of the game is to confound the marketers, and keep one's own, authentic culture from showing up at the shopping mall as a prepackaged corporate product. | 102 |
| Marilyn vos Savant | Teens think listening to music helps them concentrate. It doesn't. It relieves them of the boredom that concentration on homework induces. | 102 |
| Victoria Justice | Being a teen can be tough. Just try to surround yourself with really good friends that really have your back, and also be a really good friend to those who really care about you. If you're not sure about certain things, talk to your friends that you trust and your family. | 102 |
| Brittany Snow | I mean, I'm pretty good in real life, but sometimes people seem surprised that I'm like a normal teenager and wear black nail polish and I'm just a little bit more edgy than the person I play on television. | 102 |
| Laurie Halse Anderson | If I can write a book that will help the world make a little more sense to a teen, then that's why I was put on the planet. | 102 |
| Louise J. Kaplan | Adolescence is the conjugator of childhood and adulthood. | 102 |
| Mac Miller | I can have a song with Ariana Grande that is going to be the song for all the kids and the teen girls, and then another song that could be for a different group of people who all love the song. I'm with whoever. Whatever type of people want to love the music and whatever they love about the music is fine with me. | 102 |
| David Pogue | My interest was magic, believe it or not. I became an amateur magician and did something like 400 magic shows through my teen years. | 102 |
| Lauren Oliver | I was a troubled teen and I was constantly looking for someone to throw me a rope. Those ropes are connections. They allow us to see that life exists beyond the little worlds we are currently a part of. | 102 |
| G. Stanley Hall | Adolescence is a new birth, for the higher and more completely human traits are now born. | 102 |
| Keahu Kahuanui | A departure from the movie with Michael J. Fox, 'Teen Wolf' tells the story of how a group of angsty teens deal with werewolves, their supernatural kin and the world of trouble that comes with it, all while trying to still live their lives. | 102 |
| Linda Hunt | When I was growing up, particularly during puberty in my teen years, I was so miserable because I elicited so much teasing and meanness from my teenage cohorts. | 102 |
| Paul Butcher | I do a lot of teen shows and voice over work for animation, so when I got the part in 'The Number 23,' it was really cool because now I get to be in a movie with Jim Carrey. Acting in this movie was really a learning experience for me. | 102 |
| Samuel Ullman | Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life. | 102 |
| Brendan Fehr | Just because you have teenagers in a movie doesn't make it a teen movie. | 102 |
| Kerr Smith | It hasn't been until the last couple years that I've started playing close to my age. But it's fun playing the younger roles because it takes you back to the teen years. | 102 |
| Ben Lindsey | Trouble is, kids feel they have to shock their elders and each generation grows up into something harder to shock. | 102 |
| Lili Simmons | I think teen girls will like 'Geek Charming' because they really focus on the 'populars' and nerdy people and people who are in between the nerds and between the populars. So it really hits every category of what girls are going through in high school. | 102 |
| Rider Strong | Maybe that's the whole teen oeuvre, you know covering people in disgusting bodily fluids and whatnot. | 102 |
| Sinqua Walls | It's always good to get feedback from people. I've been fortunate that all the fans, and especially fans of 'Teen Wolf,' have been really gracious. | 102 |
| Carolyn Mackler | My own experience being bullied - it made me a more compassionate person. It made me more sympathetic to the adolescent experience. | 102 |
| Charlie Carver | The 'Teen Wolf' fans are so great. | 102 |
| Magda Apanowicz | I've always enjoyed the teen angst thing. I had a lot of teen angst as I was growing up, so I think I have a lot to say about it through characters before I have to move on. | 102 |
| Joan Chen | All teenagers have this desire to somehow run away. | 102 |
| Robyn Lively | Because of people like that guy in San Francisco who told me it changed his life, 'Teen Witch' is my most favorite thing I've ever done. I see how happy it makes people, and that makes me happy. The great thing is that no one realized it was going to become all these things when we were making it. We thought we were making a very serious movie. | 102 |
| Madisen Beaty | Most people, almost everyone knows of a teen mom. Teen pregnancy rates are growing, and we need to bring awareness to that. | 102 |
| Dave Barry | To an adolescent, there is nothing in the world more embarrassing than a parent. | 103 |
| Claire Danes | Growing up, I wanted desperately to please, to be a good girl. | 103 |
| David Wilkerson | The Teen Challenge ministry was born out of those humble early days of ministry. It now includes over 500 drug and alcohol rehab centers around the world, even in Muslim countries. These include homes for girls and women addicts and alcoholics, all which are reaching many. | 103 |
| Heather Locklear | When I look in the mirror I see the girl I was when I was growing up, with braces, crooked teeth, a baby face and a skinny body. | 103 |
| Jena Malone | Adolescence isn't just about prom or wearing sparkly dresses. | 103 |
| John Hughes | At the time I came along, Hollywood's idea of teen movies meant there had to be a lot of nudity, usually involving boys in pursuit of sex, and pretty gross overall. Either that or a horror movie. And the last thing Hollywood wanted in their teen movies was teenagers! | 103 |
| Rob Lowe | I liked being a teenager, but I would not go back for all the tea in China. | 103 |
| Virginia Satir | Adolescents are not monsters. They are just people trying to learn how to make it among the adults in the world, who are probably not so sure themselves. | 103 |
| Barry Gibb | Everybody is a teenage idol. | 103 |
| J. K. Simmons | I never listened to the Grateful Dead as a teen; the only exposure I got was what came through the walls when my sister was listening to them. | 103 |
| Louise J. Kaplan | The toddler must say no in order to find out who she is. The adolescent says no to assert who she is not. | 103 |
| Bryan Greenberg | I got the acting bug really young, when I was around, like, 10. I pretty much just wanted to be Michael J. Fox. He was in 'Teen Wolf' - that was, like, the coolest role, and then he did 'Back to the Future,' and that was the coolest role. | 103 |
| Corin Tucker | The eighties were my teen years, so the GoGos are sort of a touchstone. | 103 |
| Sara Zarr | I wouldn't say I'm stuck in my adolescence, but I think, like a lot of people, I carry my teen years with me. I feel really in touch with those feelings, and how intense and complicated life seems in those years. | 103 |
| Chantal Kreviazuk | Well, I actually first got into music as a small child, and as I became a teen, I sought out making money from music, weather that was singing lounge gigs, backup in studios, or weddings. | 103 |
| Elizabeth Gillies | I love being a teen because you don't have all the responsibilities of an adult yet. | 103 |
| Tayari Jones | I take mentoring very seriously and I am on the board of an organization called Girls Write Now, where we match teen girls and writing mentors because it changes their lives. | 103 |
| Chandler Riggs | I'm a teen boy, so I like seeing blood and guts. I know it's fake, but I'm having fun. | 103 |
| Lady Starlight | As a unique person, I was bullied badly as a teen. | 103 |
| Miranda Otto | I think you go through a period as a teenager of being quite cool and unaffected by things. | 103 |
| Alan J. Heeger | My high school years were fun and frustrating, typical of the teen years. The most important accomplishment was meeting my wife, Ruth. | 103 |
| Robyn Lively | My younger sister and younger brother are huge 'Teen Witch' fans. | 103 |
| Aeriel Miranda | 'Pretty Little Liars,' you know, it's a teen show that grew to be something bigger. I think you had girls from ages 7 to, like, 20 watching the show, and that was the predominant audience. Then it grew to be for girls, boys, men, women, people who are 7 to 35. I think that's crazy. | 103 |
| Melody Carlson | I grew up in a difficult environment, but I became a Christian as a teen. My mom and my sister soon became Christians also. | 103 |
| Jeremy Shada | I grew up watching a lot of stuff, like 'Teen Titans.' | 103 |
| Jeff Healey | I progressed through so many different styles of music through my teen years, both as a player and a vocalist, particularly the jazz and pop of the early 20th Century. | 103 |
| Arnold H. Glasow | Telling a teenager the facts of life is like giving a fish a bath. | 104 |
| Gus Van Sant | The area of teenage life is not necessarily rarefied; we've all gone through that period. It's not as rarefied as a western or a space adventure or a gangster film, but it has its own dynamic. | 104 |
| Jena Malone | There is a point in every young person's life when you realize that the youth that you've progressed through and graduate to some sort of adulthood is equally as messed up as where you're going. | 104 |
| Queen Latifah | I've been giving back since I was a teen, handing out turkeys at Thanksgiving and handing out toys at toys drives for Christmas. It's very important to give back as a youth. It's as simple as helping an old lady across the street or giving up your seat on the bus for someone who is pregnant. | 104 |
| Uma Thurman | I spent the first fourteen years of my life convinced that my looks were hideous. Adolescence is painful for everyone, I know, but mine was plain weird. | 104 |
| Louise J. Kaplan | Children, even infants, are capable of sympathy. But only after adolescence are we capable of compassion. | 104 |
| Penelope Spheeris | This generation has given up on growth. They're just hoping for survival. | 104 |
| Terry Brooks | Growing up, I didn't have a lot of toys, and personal entertainment depended on individual ingenuity and imagination - think up a story and go live it for an afternoon. | 104 |
| Alexa Vega | I think I am too old to be doing teen movies. I am just kind of annoyed, because you have all these teen movies coming out with usually either Lindsay Lohan or Hilary Duff doing four of the exact teen movies over and over again. | 104 |
| Nancy Garden | My writing books with positive gay characters has come more out of anger than anything else: anger at not having been able to find honest, accurate books about people like myself as a teen, books that show we're as diverse as straight people and that we can lead happy, healthy, productive lives just as straight people can. | 104 |
| Nancy Werlin | I actually hope people don't react to 'Impossible' in a way where they think it's terribly retro. The plot needed to do what it needed to do. But I'm a little surprised to find myself looking a little bit like an advocate of teen marriage. It takes some exceptional circumstances for that to be a reasonable idea. | 104 |
| Anita Brookner | Time misspent in youth is sometimes all the freedom one ever has. | 104 |
| Diane Cilento | I got through my teen years by being a bit of a clown. | 104 |
| Joe Bob Briggs | As I've said many times, the single most oppressed class in America right now is the teenager. | 104 |
| Rian Johnson | Teen movies often have an unspoken underlying premise in which high school is seen as less serious than the adult world. But when your head is encased in that microcosm it's the most serious time of your life. | 104 |
| Ann Brashares | The distinction has blurred between young adult and adult books. Some of the teen books have become more sophisticated. | 104 |
| Chelsea Kane | I think if we were going to worry about teen pregnancy being glamorized, we should worry about shows like 'Teen Mom'. If people are going to want to have children at a young age because they see it on TV, I think that depends on the type of person you're dealing with. | 104 |
| Chris Massoglia | I don't really think I feel pressured to become a teen sensation because that's not really my goal in life. It's not really about being star, being popular or having lots of girls. It's really about continuing to be able to act and have fun, and do what I like to do. | 104 |
| Dustin Milligan | My whole life, growing up, I always wanted to be in comedy. I never felt comfortable doing the 'teen hunk' thing. | 104 |
| Lili Simmons | There's an indie movie I did called 'Fat Kid Rules the World,' which was based on a teen book, and it's a fabulous story, and hopefully it'll go to theaters because it is an amazing story. | 104 |
| Shaun Cassidy | I was a teen idol and that has a short shelf life. | 104 |
| Robyn Lively | This is actually something no one knows, but my mom was really the one who created the entire style for 'Teen Witch.' I'm dead serious. | 104 |
| Ally Carter | Teenage girls read in packs. It's true today, and it was true when I was a teen growing up in a small town in northeast Oklahoma. | 104 |
| John Allison | To be honest, and this is terrible to admit, I hardly read any teen mystery books at all. | 104 |
| Jules Feiffer | Maturity is only a short break in adolescence. | 104 |
| Fran Lebowitz | As a teenager you are at the last stage in your life when you will be happy to hear that the phone is for you. | 105 |
| Natasha Lyonne | I started wearing all black around the time I got into Nirvana. I first heard 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' when I was about 12, and I remember jumping on my bed, so excited about it. | 105 |
| Vanessa Hudgens | So many people try to grow up too fast, and it's not fun! You should stay a kid as long as possible! | 105 |
| Frankie Avalon | Yes, but I don't think of the Teen Angel as of an age. | 105 |
| Wayne Kramer | But when I was a teenager, the idea of spending the rest of my life in a factory was real depressing. So the idea that I could become a musician opened up some possibilities I didn't see otherwise. | 105 |
| Winnie Holzman | I consider myself a writer. I always wanted to act, and as a teen, I studied acting devotedly. Eventually, I got writing work, but very little acting work. | 105 |
| Connie Stevens | I love the live performances and Las Vegas. I also like making films that are being discovered by another generation. Having been a teen idol of the '60s is great because you realize you left your generation with a smile and good memories. | 105 |
| Leif Garrett | Frank Sinatra is the only one that went from teen idol to superstar. | 105 |
| Matthew Vaughn | I think there's a time in your life where you don't feel like you fit in. I think everyone has that when you're a teenager, especially, and especially in the society we live in. | 105 |
| Andrew Shue | The most important role models should and could be parents and teachers. But that said, once you're a teenager you've probably gotten as much of an example from your parents as you're going to. | 105 |
| Jason Aaron | As a kid, I was definitely a DC guy. I started reading big time in the '80s at the height of the Wolfman/Perez 'New Teen Titans.' That was definitely the book that hooked me. | 105 |
| Lacey Chabert | I don't want to be a 'teen star' because so many people don't ever grow out of that. | 105 |
| Adam Brody | I have been in teen shows for years, so doing that stuff - kissing - is kind of commonplace and not a big deal. It was way more cool just because it was Meg Ryan. | 105 |
| Ross Lynch | 'Teen Beach Movie' was a lot of fun because we were in Puerto Rico on an island - you can't even call it work! | 105 |
| Saskia de Brauw | I remember as a teen being able to eat more than my father. I was growing so fast and my body couldn't keep up. | 105 |
| Shanley Caswell | When I was a freshman, I didn't have that much time for extra-curriculars, so I didn't do any theater stuff. Actually, I didn't do it with my school. I did theater with this thing called Teen Source. | 105 |
| Justice Smith | 'Catcher in the Rye.' I feel like any brooding teen loves that book. | 105 |
| e. e. cummings | It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are. | 106 |
| Carol Burnett | Adolescence is just one big walking pimple. | 106 |
| Friedrich Schiller | Keep true to the dreams of your youth. | 106 |
| Winona Ryder | You've got to grow up sometime. | 106 |
| Yves Behar | I wanted to be a writer as a teen... so storytelling was my first love. In my late teens, design became an obsession as I realized that I could express myself through the medium. Much later, when I founded Fuseproject in 1999, our slogan became 'design brings stories to life.' | 106 |
| Rick Springfield | I was a happy kid up until I hit the teen years. | 106 |
| Devon Sawa | Final Destination was the closest thing I've done to a teen movie but it certainly had an edge to it. | 106 |
| Sarah Michelle Gellar | Being a teen idol is what I've waited for my whole life. | 106 |
| Alice Hoffman | I think growing up is difficult and it's a process that I'm always interested in, with kids and adults, they are often on two different universes. | 106 |
| Robert Cormier | I have always had a sense that we are all pretty much alone in life, particularly in adolescence. | 106 |
| Dana Snyder | I love being a part of Aqua Teen. | 106 |
| Marco Beltrami | 'Snowpiercer' is a little bit more experimental, I think, and crafted for a slightly different audience. 'The Giver' is more about teen angst. | 106 |
| Sarah Mlynowski | I watch a lot of teen TV and read a lot of YA novels. I also talk to teens whenever I can. There are cultural differences between when I was a teen and now, but emotions - anger, angst, love - are the same. | 106 |
| Johnny Otis | When I got near teen age, I was so happy with my friends and the African-American culture that I couldn't imagine not being part of it. | 106 |
| Lukas Haas | Material Girls was so different for me, I'd never done a teen movie. | 107 |
| Colton Haynes | I grew up in a small town in Kansas, so I love meeting the fans. Those are the people who spend time out of their day to watch the things that I've done, and I've gotten to do some great supernatural stuff - 'Teen Wolf' and 'The Gates' before that - so it's nice when I get to go to Comic-Con every year. | 107 |
| Peyton Reed | I think there's actually a benefit to working with teen actors: they've got such boundless energy, and everybody is willing to try different things. | 107 |
| Tamora Pierce | Teen problem novels? I can go through them like a box of chocolates. And there are fantasy books out now that need a lot more editing. Fantasy got to be so popular that people began to think 'We don't need to be as diligent with the razor blade,' but they do. | 107 |
| Leven Rambin | I'm so fascinated by the concept of teen pregnancy for some reason. Not that I condone it or promote it, but it's just a very real thing in our country and culture. | 107 |
| Sarah Dessen | When I was a teen, I was never really into the captain of the football team or the student body president. The guys I liked were quirky and different: They listened to music I'd never heard of, never had lunch or gas money, and could always make you laugh. | 107 |
| Mark Waters | After 'Freaky Friday,' another teen movie was not on my playlist. | 107 |
| Adelaide Kane | I'm still good friends with everybody from 'Teen Wolf.' I still see them, and I go to Jeff Davis' for 'Teen Wolf' night when I can. It was such a rewarding experience. That's such a fun set. | 107 |
| John B. S. Haldane | A fairly bright boy is far more intelligent and far better company than the average adult. | 107 |
| Amanda Bynes | I don't like being compared to anyone or being in a class with someone. I'm a teen actress and therefore I'm competing against Hilary Duff. We're different people like everyone else. | 108 |
| Jane Fonda | It's about time we make the well-being of our young people more important than ideology and politics. As a country, we benefit from investing in their future by investing in teen pregnancy prevention. | 108 |
| Laurie Halse Anderson | That can be the most painstaking aspect of being a teen, figuring out what the world really looks like. If you find someone in a book, you know you're not alone and that's what's so comforting about books. | 108 |
| Naya Rivera | Honestly, I never thought I'd actually be playing a teen lesbian. I didn't think it was going to go this far. But I'm glad that it did, because there have been a lot of fans who have expressed that they've been going through similar situations in their lives. | 108 |
| Sophie Turner | I will be able to look back on my teen years as spent on a television set just having the biggest bunch of fun. | 108 |
| Colton Haynes | I think doing 'Teen Wolf' is just giving me a really great opportunity to possibly get other jobs and show what I can do. | 108 |
| Clyde Tombaugh | Can you imagine young people nowadays making a study of trigonometry for the fun of it? Well I did. | 108 |
| Robin Wasserman | Of course Stephen King doesn't believe in teen novels. I've started to suspect he doesn't even believe in teenagers. | 108 |
| Adriana Lima | I'm a teenager, but I'm independent - I have my own apartment, I have my own life. And I think I have learned more than any of those teenagers have in school. I learned to be responsible, leaving my family and coming here alone. | 109 |
| Art Linkletter | In the Top 40, half the songs are secret messages to the teen world to drop out, turn on, and groove with the chemicals and light shows at discotheques. | 109 |
| Tommy Mottola | You need to know what makes artists tick. Having been through the process myself as a musician, since I was an early teen, gave me an advantage - understanding them from their point of view, because it's about them, it's not about you - it's their vision and what they're capable of achieving, and you're the conduit. | 109 |
| Colton Haynes | I think the fans from the original 'Teen Wolf' tuned in expecting us to ruin the franchise, and I think that we've only heightened it. So we've brought 'Teen Wolf' back. | 109 |
| Milla Jovovich | At the age of 16 I was already dreaming of having a baby because I felt myself to be an adult, but my mum forbid it. Right now, I feel like a teenager and I want to have fun for one or two more years before starting a family. | 109 |
| Sarah Dessen | I love writing about the summer between high school and college. It's the last gasp of really being a teen. | 109 |
| Sufe Bradshaw | Ever since I was a little teen, I was told by my great-grandma that you've got to always have a good moisturizer. I use cocoa butter, and I use it for all things needing moisture - face, hair, throw it on those legs at the beach, get them all shiny. Cocoa butter is such a great product. | 109 |
| Jayma Mays | I did work at a mall in college - I think retail/customer service is just one of the most hideous jobs in the world. So I always try to be extra nice when I go into a store. But malls are part of our culture, if you watched any teen comedy in the '80s. it's clear that malls are where we live! | 109 |
| Robin Wasserman | Teen fiction should be about teenagers - no matter how many arguments there are about what YA lit should be, this seems like the one thing we can all agree on. | 109 |
| Sarah Mlynowski | I started a MySpace teen lit discussion group and invited people to join. | 109 |
| Seth Gabel | I could have been on a path that led to different, more traditional teen romance, and 'Nip/Tuck' shook me loose from any generalization I might have been forced into. It helped me understand I wanted to take on things that were edgier, more challenging and riskier. | 109 |
| Ally Condie | Being a teen is past for me. Worrying about the world and my place in it is not. | 109 |
| Marla Sokoloff | I'm pretty sure this is it for the teen movie thing. It's so frustrating to read when you get to page 20 and you're like, Oy! It's the same thing again! | 109 |
| Dave Barry | Your modern teenager is not about to listen to advice from an old person, defined as a person who remembers when there was no Velcro. | 110 |
| Andie MacDowell | During my teen years, I was real emotional. I could be really up or down. | 110 |
| Gia Coppola | Costumes say a lot about a character. When it came to 'Palo Alto,' it was important for me that the kids didn't look perfect. In most teen movies today, all of the clothes are expensive. I remember wearing a lot of dirty vintage clothes. | 110 |
| Dennis Quaid | In my early teen years, I wanted to become a vet. That was my plan. I worked as a veterinarian's assistant for a couple of summers. | 110 |
| Carrie Vaughn | Robin McKinley's 'The Blue Sword' was a defining book of my teen years, and I'd love to have more books like that in the world. | 110 |
| Chris Evans | For the youth, the indignation of most things will just surge as each birthday passes. | 111 |
| Ellen Hopkins | And at some point I would like to talk my publisher into doing an anthology of my poetry alongside some teen readers' poetry. It would be fun, and really wonderful to get their stuff out there. | 111 |
| Shakira | I remember the first time I saw the 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' video. I will never forget that day. I just wanted to see Kurt Cobain's face. I had a feeling he was very cute. But, I couldn't see his face. When I finally did see him, he was even cuter than I imagined! | 111 |
| Victoria Justice | To even be called the 'teen queen' is crazy. | 111 |
| Willie Aames | Being a teen idol or being a heartthrob on all the magazines, with Shaun Cassidy, Leif Garrett, and Scott Baio - it was embarrassing! I never understood it. I mean, why me? I never really got it. | 111 |
| Emily Giffin | Writing a teen character is something I wanted to try again for a long time! | 111 |
| Josh Hartnett | I don't think there's a problem with being a teen idol, if that happens to me, I'll be happy to deal with it. | 111 |
| Stephen Dorff | I don't want to just be in the normal kind of teen movie. | 111 |
| Marian Wright Edelman | To all those mothers and fathers who are struggling with teen-agers, I say, just be patient: even though it looks like you can't do anything right for a number of years, parents become popular again when kids reach 20. | 112 |
| Beth Ditto | When I was a teenager I would lock myself in the bathroom for hours, bouffanting my hair like Patty Duke and trying to recreate Barbra Streisand's flawless eyeliner, only to comb it all out and wash it all off before stepping out into the world a butchish bisexual teen. | 112 |
| Ethel Waters | I wanted to be with the kind of people I'd grown up with, but you can't go back to them and be one of them again, no matter how hard you try. | 112 |
| James McAvoy | I really liked 'Starter For Ten' because I grew up watching 1980s teen films like 'St. Elmo's Fire' and 'The Breakfast Club' and I've always wanted to play the underdog lead hero in a 1980s-inspired film. | 112 |
| Leelee Sobieski | I did try to get a few of those teen high-school movies, but they just didn't like me. I guess I wasn't a certain type. | 112 |
| Sarah MacLean | Teenagers are asking, 'Who am I?' and 'How do I fit in?' in every aspect of their lives, and the best YA romances appreciate that there is more to a teen's life than finding love. | 112 |
| Simone Elkeles | I write edgy, sexy teen romances, and that's what I'll continue to do. | 112 |
| Mia Kirshner | I've never done a teen movie before, but I certainly could tell you some of the ones I came very close on. I was very close on Clueless and She's All That. | 112 |
| John Walters | Research shows that parents are the single biggest influence on children - if you are worried about your teen and drugs, talk to them. | 112 |
| Jess Row | As a white teen, I was very drawn to hip-hop culture, almost to the point of disappearing in it - there was a sense of having no sense of authenticity except this one that wasn't mine. | 112 |
| Anne-Marie Duff | I didn't have a teen age at all. I didn't even look at boys, never mind... then suddenly it was like, 'Oh my god!' So I made up for a lot of lost time very quickly. It was kind of bonkers. Working hard, partying hard - but also experiencing life, you know. | 113 |
| Sean Covey | The average teen today spends about 35 hours a week in front of a screen of some kind: iPod, movie, TV, video. And a lot of it is good, but a lot of it's not. And so I think you've got that five hours a day of media coming into your kid's head that's creating a lot of havoc out there. | 113 |
| Andrew Shue | If you can get a teen leader in each sector of a student population, you can pull people in. Everybody wants to get involved, but most are too afraid. When they see a person they think is cool leading it, they're first to join. | 113 |
| Constance Baker Motley | I grew up in a house where nobody had to tell me to go to school every day and do my homework. | 114 |
| Alan Ladd | Time scoots along pretty fast when you grow up. | 114 |
| Curtis Armstrong | To be honest, I haven't seen a lot of the current crop of teen movies because there's only so much time and there's nothing that really drives me to do it. | 114 |
| David Wilkerson | The Teen Challenge Training Center on Pennsylvania farmland houses over 200 men in rehab. Other farms and centers have been birthed out of this ministry all over the world. | 115 |
| Grace Helbig | I think if you ask people why they watch me, there would be some common thread among all of them that I'm somewhat of an awkward older sister. I have a teen, mostly female demographic. How that happened, I don't know. But I think they see me as some sort of bizarre role model, and I'll keep trying to do that for them. | 115 |
| Brendan I. Koerner | A surprising number of American skyjackers were not yet old enough to drink or sometimes even drive. These adolescents were generally inept at planning their crimes, and few of their capers met with any success; most seemed to end within moments of starting, usually after a fatherly pilot convinced the nervous teen to hand over his gun. | 115 |
| Jane Fonda | Children born to teens have less supportive and stimulating environments, poorer health, lower cognitive development, and worse educational outcomes. Children of teen mothers are at increased risk of being in foster care and becoming teen parents themselves, thereby repeating the cycle. | 115 |
| Justin Timberlake | My teenage years were exactly what they were supposed to be. Everybody has their own path. It's laid out for you. It's just up to you to walk it. | 115 |
| David Suchet | I was a typical teen growing up in the 1960s, when everybody was into gurus and meditation. | 115 |
| Michelle Branch | I think I'm also more open to other writers being present and listening to other opinions, whereas before I was going through my angsty teen years while making records. | 115 |
| David Wilkerson | I am not officially involved now in the direction of the Teen Challenge ministry, but I rejoice that God permits me to be the father of these ministries. | 116 |
| Tommy Chong | We won a contest at the teen fair in Vancouver and the first prize was a recording contract and we recorded at a radio station on the stairway, and we did a record and it got put out. | 116 |
| Jane Fonda | If we as a nation are to break the cycle of poverty, crime and the growing underclass of young people ill equipped to be productive citizens, we need to not only implement effective programs to prevent teen pregnancy, but we must also help those who have already given birth so that they become effective, nurturing, bonding parents. | 116 |
| Rob Sheffield | When I started out as a music journalist, at the end of the 1980s, it was generally assumed that we were living through the lamest music era the world would ever see. But those were also the years when hip-hop exploded, beatbox disco soared, indie rock took off, and new wave invented a language of teen angst. | 116 |
| Jamie Lee Curtis | If you just watch a teenager, you see a lot of uncertainty. | 117 |
| David Wilkerson | Every Teen Challenge ministry is responsible for raising its own finances, but we assist these works with finances, prayer and counseling, especially overseas in areas such as Siberia, Africa, South America. | 117 |
| Lorde | The phrase 'teen hottie' literally makes me want to throw up. | 117 |
| Rachel Zoe | I just fell into the job as a fashion editor at a teen magazine. I was there for two years, and I left there as a senior fashion editor at the age of 25. | 117 |
| Anna Chlumsky | I had no idea of the size of my bank account as a teen, and I didn't care to know. That was my mom's job, I figured that I would just find out when I turned 18. If you can't trust your mom, then who can you trust? | 117 |
| Christopher McCulloch | I think the feeling was that 'Venture Brothers' really has something to sell in terms of a feature. 'Aqua Teen' is an element minute cartoon, and its very subversive and non sequitur and weird. We were writing the one show where we were constantly like, 'God, I wish we had another hour to tell this story.' It seemed like a natural fit. | 117 |
| John Walters | We all have an interest in making sure teens grow up healthy and drug-free. | 117 |
| Al Franken | Teen pregnancy went way down in the '90s, and 75 percent of it was because of increased use of contraception. | 118 |
| Winona Ryder | I have this sense that I didn't really start growing up until my twenties. | 118 |
| Dorothy Hamill | In my teen years leading up to the Olympics, I loved having the excuse to skip out on parties because of skating. Partying wasn't my thing anyway. Mostly I hung out with other skaters. We were all buddies, so it's not like I missed out on socializing. I was really enjoying myself. | 118 |
| Evelyn Glennie | Before my teen years, I was losing my hearing pretty quickly, and I was getting very, very angry. I was beginning to become an angry person because of that. | 118 |
| Robert Mundell | I took high school very casually. There was Teen Town, chess, tennis, boxing, running. Lots of things going on. | 118 |
| Caroline Rhea | I'd like a pop-up magazine with 45 articles on Russell Crowe. I'm like a teenager. I'd have 'Teen Beat' if I could, for grown-ups. | 118 |
| Tony Bradman | I don't usually like teen novels written in the present tense, particularly those told from a first-person viewpoint. Too many writers seem to believe that using either or both devices automatically imbues their stories with deep seriousness and a contemporary feel. | 118 |
| John Walters | Teen drug use went up dramatically in the 1990s. | 118 |
| Jamie Lee Curtis | Well, I could do it for a day, but I wouldn't want to be a teenager again. I really wouldn't. | 119 |
| Dale Earnhardt | Growing up, I've enjoyed hunting with my father. | 119 |
| Eddie Vedder | No matter how good you are, at some point your kids are gonna have to create their own independence and think that Mom and Dad aren't cool, just to establish themselves. That's what adolescence is about. They're gonna go through that no matter what. | 119 |
| Vincent D'Onofrio | I found my niche as a character actor, and I've never felt like a movie star or teen idol and never wanted to. | 119 |
| K. A. Applegate | One of my first paid gigs was writing psychology quizzes for 'YM,' a monthly teen magazine like 'Seventeen.' | 119 |
| Matthew Tobin Anderson | Certain elements of teen life that, 10 years ago, were very important to me still, are becoming less so as I get older. I mean, I've kinda gotten over, I guess I'm saying, the fact that I had trouble getting a date for the prom. | 119 |
| Rick Springfield | They were marketing me as a teen idol, when the stuff on the record was not what teen idols were doing at the time. | 119 |
| Ed Begley, Jr. | I was a typical Valley teen, in smoggy Van Nuys. | 119 |
| Niall Horan | Katy Perry still gets me every time. She's very funny in person! We met at the Teen Choice Awards and she pulled my cheeks apart and told me how cute I was. My life was literally flashing before my eyes! | 120 |
| Max Irons | If you try to bring 'teen drama,' you end up doing nothing but pouting. | 120 |
| Aristotle | Good habits formed at youth make all the difference. | 121 |
| Nigella Lawson | I was a quiet teenager, introverted, full of angst. | 121 |
| Zoe Kravitz | People love teen movies because everyone can relate. | 121 |
| Danica McKellar | I want to help middle-school girls stay interested in math and be good at it, and see it as friendly and accessible and not this scary thing. Everyone else in society tells them it's not for them. It's for nerdy white guys with pocket protectors. | 121 |
| S. E. Hinton | I just felt being part of my peer group so strongly. I was immersed in teen culture, but not taken in by it. | 121 |
| Jennifer Damiano | I was, like, this token teen angst child of Broadway. It's so funny. What is that? I don't even know. But I loved it. | 121 |
| Henry Wadsworth Longfellow | Youth comes but once in a lifetime. | 122 |
| Kim Gordon | I see it as more of a teenage activity than, you know, she's only 11, but you know, I think it's great that she knows so many girls who want to play music. And I see it more as a teen activity than I do as going into music. | 122 |
| Tony Visconti | Since my teen years I was interested in martial arts. | 122 |
| Sam Trammell | Yeah, I spent my teen years in West Virginia, and when I was a kid, in Louisiana. I definitely have that exposure to two different sorts of rural: the South and Appalachia. | 122 |
| Andy Cohen | I fell in love with Erica Kane the summer before my freshman year of high school. Like all red-blooded teen American boys, I'd come home from water polo practice and eat a box of Entenmann's Pop'Ems donut holes in front of the TV while obsessively fawning over 'All My Children' and Erica, her clothes, and her narcissistic attitude. | 123 |
| Richard Corliss | Lesley Gore's part-time field was pop singer, and in her brief but urgent prime, she was the Queen of Teen Angst. She endured heartbreak as a birthday girl betrayed by her beau in 'It's My Party,' savored revenge in the sequel 'Judy's Turn to Cry' and belted the proto-feminist anthem 'You Don't Own Me.' | 123 |
| Selma Blair | I played teen roles until high definition came out, and I could never understand it. I would go in for adult roles and be older than many of the people auditioning, but they'd cast the girl without a line on her face. | 123 |
| Jared Leto | I was never interested in 'Teen Beat' like roles. I just wanted to work. | 123 |
| Max Brooks | When I started writing, there was nothing about zombies. It was all teen movies, which to me are scarier than zombies, but that's another story. | 123 |
| Kid Rock | There's always a Justin Bieber. Ever since I've been around, there's always been one of him. You know, you can trace it back from how old you are and the boy bands that came along then and the teen sensations and whatnot. And, you know, good for them. There's a few of them that make it out and a few of them that don't. | 124 |
| Kirsten Dunst | It's important to me that I don't get trapped in the whole teen scene, because I feel that you can get lost in those kind of movies, and they aren't really about the actors; they're about the selling of the concept, and how much money it makes. | 124 |
| John Green | We don't tend to write about disease in fiction - not just teen novels but all American novels - because it doesn't fit in with our idea of the heroic romantic epic. There is room only for sacrifice, heroism, war, politics and family struggle. | 124 |
| Anna Wintour | I like having young assistants in my office; they have energy, and I spend time with them to make sure they understand what we're doing. By investing in them, I'm investing in the magazine. All over 'Vogue,' 'Teen Vogue,' and 'Men's Vogue,' there are people who have been through not only my office but also many other offices at 'Vogue.' | 125 |
| Dario Argento | When I was a teenager, I read a lot of Poe. | 125 |
| Cecily von Ziegesar | I decided that, if I were to write a teen series, I'd want to set it in a place that was familiar to me - Manhattan, where I'd grown up - and I'd model the characters on myself and my friends. | 125 |
| Kaui Hart Hemmings | What's great about teen fiction is that it's all mixed up - there's highbrow and lowbrow! | 126 |
| Lily Collins | I don't know if this is too weird to say, but this is completely surreal for me. Bizarre. The cover of 'Teen Vogue' has been on my bucket list forever. | 126 |
| Martin Seligman | If you were an optimistic teen, then you'll be an optimist at 80. People's reactions to bad events are highly stable over a half century or more. | 126 |
| Kiesza | I didn't date for my entire teen life - it just wasn't on my mind. | 126 |
| Steve Aoki | Being a musician since I was a teen, Guitar Center is the staple. You need anything to create, it's there. You need a Guitar Center. You gotta give it homage. It's a tool shed, and without the tool shed, it's hard to create. | 126 |
| Olivia Wilde | I was a handful growing up. | 201 |
| Jason Bateman | I think anybody who's doing work in their teen years on TV or in the movies, you're a teen idol by default. | 201 |
| Anthony Bourdain | I'm a comic nerd. I'm a former serious collector for much of my childhood and early teen years I wanted to draw underground comics. | 202 |
| Geoff Johns | I tend to like writing long stories in comics. I worked on 'Flash,' 'Teen Titans' and 'JSA' for years. I always like diving into characters. | 202 |
| Rainbow Rowell | If you were an alien who came to our bookstores - or browsed our teen magazines - you'd think that only Earth girls who look like Mila Kunis ever got any action. | 202 |
| Troian Bellisario | As I got older, I had a bunch of friends that were various teen stars. I've always known people in the spotlight and people who just grew up in L.A. and had nothing to do with the industry. It's not a glamorous thing to me. It's just a different type of business. | 202 |
| Amity Shlaes | The donning of the ear buds marks the beginning of teen life, when children set off on their own for the passage through adolescence. | 202 |
| Lindsay Lohan | I hate it when people call me a teen queen. | 203 |
| Willie Geist | Watching 'CSI: Miami' is like watching 'Teen Jeopardy!' or doing the crossword puzzle in 'People' magazine. It makes you feel smart even when you're not. | 203 |
| Macaulay Culkin | Most of the offers I get from Hollywood are for teen comedies. My manager thinks I'm crazy for turning down all that money, but I'm very picky. | 203 |
| Anna Kendrick | I think I'm trouble-adjacent. I remember hearing once that good girls don't get caught. I think that's sort of a lot of what my teen years were like. I skirted the stuff that other kids were doing because the idea of actually getting in trouble was not appealing to me, but I still wanted to have adventures. | 204 |
| NeNe Leakes | 'Teen Moms!' I started watching them like the first two seasons, and I stopped. I stopped because they are too young. I feel sorry for them. And I didn't watch that show 'Hoarders.' That thing would made my skin crawl. | 204 |
| Maggie Stiefvater | I saw myself as an outsider as a teen. I was home-schooled and got my G.E.D. when I was 16; I wasn't interested in high school at all and figured that college might be more entertaining. | 204 |
| Laurence J. Peter | Heredity is what sets the parents of a teenager wondering about each other. | 205 |
| Marina and the Diamonds | Obviously when you're a teen you have no money, so you make, like, three outfits out of one dress. You're like, 'OK cut the arms here. Alright: New party, cut them to here.' | 206 |
| Justin Timberlake | Teen pop will never die as long as there are teens and popular music. It just takes a different head. | 206 |
| Stephen Moyer | I think there are worse things for a teen to be enraptured with than 'Twilight.' | 206 |
| Margaret Stohl | I first read Harper Lee's 'To Kill a Mockingbird' as a teen in school, like you did. I read the book alone, eating lunch at my locker, neatly scored oranges my mother divided into five lines with a circle at the top, so my fingers could dig more easily into the orange skin. To this day, the smell of oranges reminds me of 'Mockingbird.' | 206 |
| Malala Yousafzai | We must tell girls their voices are important. | 208 |
| Troian Bellisario | I'm not a teen anymore, but growing up, some of my favorite things were, like, 'Twin Peaks,' which wasn't even really my time, and this is one of the things, like a weird, quirky, small town mystery. | 208 |
| Maggie Stiefvater | When I was a teen, I thought I would have to choose between my writing or my music or my art, but it turns out it's a difficult juggling game but I can do all of them. | 208 |
| Mal Peet | Teen authors love to flirt with taboo, to grapple - sensitively - with dark and frightening issues, and there is nothing darker and more frightening than cancer. | 208 |
| Wayne Dyer | I don't believe in 'thinking' old. Although I've transitioned through many bodies - a baby, toddler, child, teen, young adult, mid-life and older adult - my spirit is unchanged. I support my body with exercise, my mind with reading and writing, and my spirit with the knowing that I am part of the Divine source of all life. | 210 |
| Corey Taylor | I've always gravitated towards those ultimate lines in songs, the line you grab on to. That line in 'Smells Like Teen Spirit,' 'Here we are now/Entertain us' - the irony, the antagonism; that's always stuck with me. | 211 |
| Tim Gunn | If you told me when I was a teen that I would end up being a teacher, I would have said you're out of your mind, because quite frankly I hated school. | 212 |
| Jeff Lemire | I've always enjoyed teen characters, and kids as well. For whatever reason, I seem to have an ability to do it sort of well, and I enjoy doing it. | 213 |
| Martina McBride | I was into all kinds of music as a teen - country music, because my dad was in a band that played country, and whatever my sister and brother were into. | 215 |
| Heath Ledger | I wasn't going to have fun doing a teen movie again. | 217 |
| Lisa Ling | My first job in TV was hosting this young teen magazine show, and all these high school teenagers showed up from all over Sacramento, California, and they chose four of us to host the show, two boys and two girls. And of the two girls, I was kind of the perky smart one and the other girl was the pretty one. | 217 |
| Willie Aames | I didn't want to be the typical teen idol. I didn't want to be Leif Garrett. I didn't want to be Shaun Cassidy, David Cassidy or Parker Stevenson. I wanted to do my own thing. | 218 |
| Jamie Bell | I had teen angst for a while, but I think every teenager has the angst. | 220 |
| Chris Evans | When I found out I had to take off my shirt in 'Teen' movie, I panicked and hit the gym. I was like, 'It's going to be on film, documented, for my children to see. I can't be 140 pounds. I need to put on a little bit of muscle.' | 222 |
| Mike Huckabee | Doesn't matter whether it's a teen girl who's pregnant, hasn't told her parents, or an elderly couple dealing with one of them being diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Those are real people to me. Those are the people I dealt with every single day. | 222 |
| Victoria Justice | I definitely think there could be stricter teen driving laws. | 226 |
| Erin O'Connor | Clothes are like a suit of armour when you're young. I was quite a shy teen, so I wanted to make aggressive statements with the way I looked. I'd say my goth/indie stage was the worst: there was a lot of experimentation involving pink food dye in my fringe. | 301 |
| Jason Bateman | People still come up to me and say, 'Hey, 'Teen Wolf!'' 'Teen Wolf Too' closed a week after it opened. Where did they see it? | 301 |
| Ice T | When I was in the 12th grade, I got my girlfriend pregnant. I just got out of school, she was a 10th-grader. I'm a teen parent, and I'm at a point where I'm like, 'Man I've got to do something.' | 302 |
| Harvey Weinstein | I'd never made a teen comedy in my life. | 305 |
| Tom Scholz | I will say that I know Nirvana did a show and played a few chords from 'More Than a Feeling' before they did 'Teen Spirit,' and it wasn't very good. But in all seriousness, 'Teen Spirit' was a great song. If subconsciously or somehow I had any influence on that, I'll take that as a compliment. | 306 |
| Charles Duhigg | Prosecutors say it would be next to impossible to get one teen to testify in court that another had slipped him or her a copied disc at lunchtime. And besides, isn't sharing music a time-honored part of teen friendship? | 307 |
| Christy Turlington | In my teen years, I was hanging out with adults - Steven Meisel, Francois Nars, Oribe, Paul Cavaco. We had so much fun! We'd go out in New York. | 308 |
| Michael Eric Dyson | I grew up in Detroit. I was a teen father. I lived on welfare for three years. I have a brother serving life in prison, though I believe he's innocent. | 308 |
| George Foreman | My kids idea of a hard life is to live in a house with only one phone. | 309 |
| Sandra Tsing Loh | Typically, middle-class educated parents' search for their children's schools takes on the feel, if not of teen girls trying on different outfits, of adolescents trying on various selves. | 310 |
| Ellie Goulding | I instinctively dress a bit tougher because I've spent a lot of time in the U.S. and I realised there was a certain image projected of me here. I've always been an absolute rebel. When I was in my teen years I had piercings and wore all black. | 314 |
| John Cusack | I was a teen star. That's disgusting enough. | 314 |
| Ty Dolla Sign | Fifth grade was when I first heard 'Smells Like Teen Spirit;' it was the energy, and his voice. I liked 311 and Sublime, too, though that might have been a little after that. | 316 |
| Tom Frieden | The United States has made remarkable progress in reducing both teen pregnancy and racial and ethnic differences, but the reality is, too many American teens are still having babies. | 316 |
| Alanis Morissette | As a teen, I was both anorexic and bulimic. | 317 |
| Kirsten Dunst | I built my entire career off of teen comedies. I was in 'Bring It On'. | 319 |
| Benjamin Watson | In the public, it seems to be painted that when minorities get pregnant, they need to get abortions, especially when it comes to teen pregnancy. It's like, when black girls are pregnant, it's like a statistic, but when white girls get pregnant, they get a TV show. | 409 |
| Chelsea Handler | Can you imagine peaking as a teen? I think if you peak in high school, there's a problem. That's what my sister always said: 'Don't worry, you'll peak later.' | 409 |
| A. P. J. Abdul Kalam | The youth need to be enabled to become job generators from job seekers. | 423 |
| Melissa McCarthy | There was a three-year chunk as a teen where I should have been tranquilized and put in a cage. | 504 |
| Roger Ebert | If a movie isn't a hit right out of the gate, they drop it. Which means that the whole mainstream Hollywood product has been skewed toward violence and vulgar teen comedy. | 506 |
| Ivanka Trump | I've started ordering out of teen catalogues! T-shirts, little coats, and jackets for around $35 - they're amazing. I've become a really big fan of Urban Outfitters, Alloy and Anthropologie. Because I'll pay for quality, but I will not just pay for trend. Psychologically, I have trouble with that. | 511 |
| Elon Musk | When I was in college, I wanted to be involved in things that would change the world. | 512 |
| Tyra Banks | Even when I was a teen model, I didn't think it was fair that I had to enter the acting world to get insurance. | 613 |
| Tyra Banks | I would not recommend a teen getting into modeling if they're not solid when it comes to their grades and school. That comes first. My mother always told me that came first. | 816 |
| Henry Rollins | As a teen, I heard the second Velvet Underground album, 'White Light/White Heat,' and it was too much for my limited scope of appreciation. It was intense, but I didn't get it. | 1019 |
