Model. Two mobile eyes in a mobile head, itself on a mobile body. (Taylor Niki)
Among all the modernized aspects of the most luxurious of industries, the model, a vestige of voluptuous barbarianism, is like some plunder-laden prey. She is the object of unbridled regard, a living bait, the passive realization of an ideal. No other female occupation contains such potent impulses to moral disintegration as this one, applying as it does the outward signs of riches to a poor and beautiful girl. (Taylor Niki)
What must it be like for a little boy to read that daddy never loved mummy? (Taylor Niki)
Man tries to make for himself in the fashion that suits him best a simplified and intelligible picture of the world; he then tries to some extent to substitute this cosmos of his for the world of experience, and thus to overcome it. (Taylor Niki)

Before we set our hearts too much on anything, let us examine how happy are those who already possess it. (Taylor Niki)
A good model can advance fashion by ten years. (Taylor Niki)
The difference between the girls today and models of the past is that we are not only interested in fashion: we are going in so many different directions at once. We work harder -- at night and on weekends. [On the modeling profession] (Taylor Niki)
For an artist to marry his model is as fatal as for a gourmet to marry his cook: the one gets no sittings, and the other gets no dinners. (Taylor Niki)
Being the muse of the photographer is what I like about this profession. (Taylor Niki)
Modeling is basically 'Buy more stuff! Don't you want some more stuff? It will make you look ten years younger and men will like you!' If I'd wanted to be a salesperson, I would have got a job selling. (Taylor Niki)
Modeling is a tough job, your co-workers are your rivals, it really puts a damper on your perspective of other girls. (Taylor Niki)
If one day I have a daughter and my daughter wants to be a model, I would never let her! (Taylor Niki)
Modeling is a very tough business for your self-esteem. When you are not 5'11" and 14 years old, the world of modeling makes you feel like there is something wrong with you, that you are inadequate. I don't like feeling that way! (Taylor Niki)
When you're modeling you're actually acting for the camera and the photographer. It's more fun, too because there are no lines to memorize. (Taylor Niki)
When I met Martha Stewart, I was dressed to the nines, cleavage galore and Martha is dressed from head to toe covered and she's just staring at me. (Taylor Niki)
Being a Victoria's Secret model, which was always my dream. (Taylor Niki)
Well, people always think that models are very comfortable with themselves, very open and have no problems with anything. (Taylor Niki)
I never went to a modeling school, and I don't suggest to anybody that they go to a modeling school. (Taylor Niki)
There's all different types of models, and there're also plus models as well. But the majority is skinny. And it's controlled by the fashion industry. (Taylor Niki)
When you are modelling, you are creating a picture, a still life, perhaps something like a silent film. You convey emotion but you are only using your body. (Taylor Niki)
People forget that I'm still working. I model. I do advertising campaigns. It's not like I'm sat at home twiddling my thumbs. (Taylor Niki)
In modelling, there is no point in trying to prove you have a brain, so why even bother? I'd sooner save the energy for something more meaningful. (Taylor Niki)
I've never wanted to do anything other than model. I'm best at selling lipstick. Acting and television work just don't appeal to me. (Taylor Niki)
I play a role in front of the cameras, just like in the movies. (Taylor Niki)
I had never been to a modeling school, and I had no idea what the job was about. (Taylor Niki)
