Talent is helpful in writing, but guts are absolutely necessary.

So far in my career, I've achieved what I've achieved because I've believed that I could do it. And I've never believed that anyone's better than me, because I think when you start doing that, you've already lost the fight.

If I am to choose two words that best describes myself, they are 'self-esteem' and 'guts.' Guts helped me become a global model.

I'll pat myself on the back and admit I have talent. Beyond that, I just happened to be in the right place at the right time.

I went further on less talent than anyone, but I was a damned good entertainer.

I built my talents on the shoulders of someone else's talent.

I deserve attention not because of any talent, but just because of who I am.

I got more guts than brains, and that's my problem.

Success gave me confidence as an artist. And now I'm able to do what I want without anybody thinking it's dumb.
