“Some people who have been working out regularly for months or even years are still out of shape because the number of cheat days they have in a week exceeds six.”

“You think I don’t know what I want? You think I love the idea of relying on my looks for life? No! It’s pathetic! In my head, I have a nice, quiet, normal job that involves me running my own business. I carry a briefcase around my office with important documents, I have a nice assistant who calls me boss, and people ask me questions—they ask for my advice because I matter! I’m important to them! I’m recognized as something more than a pretty face and a pair of legs. I have a brain and interests and thoughts about religion, and poverty, and economics. I’m not a miserable girl with a number attached to her chest, stripping her clothes off in a room full of people.”

“Fashion models and financial models are similar. They bear a similar relationship to everyday world. Like supermodels, financial models are idealized representations of the real world, they are not real, they don't quite work the way that the real world works. There is celebrity in both worlds. In the end, there is the same inevitable disappointment" - Satyajit Das, Traders, Guns & Money”

“The fallacy that dynamic processes must be modeled as if the system is in continuous equilibrium is probably the most important reason for the intellectual failure of neoclassical economics. Mathematics, science and engineering developed tools long ago to model outside of equilibrium processes. This dynamic approach to thinking about the economy should become second nature to economists.”

“That’s one of the harsh realities I learned early on about the modeling industry: ultimately, your body doesn’t really belong to you. It belongs to the client. Since they’re paying, they figure they can do pretty much whatever they want to you. They can curl your hair, straighten it, dye it, cut it –even shave it. I’ve seen hair extensions being pulled out by the roots and smoke billowing out of flat irons while the hair inside gets singed and fried. I’ve watched models squeeze their feet into shoes so small their feet literally bled, and I’ve seen false eyelashes torn off so quickly that the natural lashes came off with them. Modeling may look glamorous on the outside, but believe me, beauty can be an ugly business.”

“My childhood crush once gave me a name. ‘Qandeel?’ It’s the name everyone knows me by. Q—Queen A—Appealing N—Naughty D—Dazzling E—Elegant E—Exquisite L—Lovely Well, that’s Qandeel. But Qandeel who? Qandeel from Shah Sadar Din, a girl who belongs to the Baloch Ma’arah tribe. Qandeel Baloch. Yes. That worked. Qandeel. It was a beautiful name. What did it mean? Qandeel ka matlab hai roshni. The light.”

“The umbrellas that I came up with were intended to preserve the taxonomic organization of the skills while showing how each skill overlaps, through the “shadows” they cast. The “apply” skill is directly dependent on the “understand” skill, for instance. The “understand” skill casted its shadow on the “apply” skill. The “remember” skill, as the biggest and uppermost umbrella, casted its shadow on all of the umbrellas, showing that understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating, and synthesizing was impacted by the way a person remembers stuff. So, it pretty much was meant to be more accurate at the technical level.”

“At the dinner table when I was very little, I would hear people bickering... To escape the bickering, I started modelling the soft bread with my fingers. With the dough of the French bread %u2013 sometimes it was still warm %u2013 I would make little figures. And I would line them up on the table and this was really my first sculpture.”

“I think the best models are actors, you're taking on a character. In that sense, I have been acting for a long time. It didn't seem like a crazy transition. Acting is a bigger step into modelling in a way. Modelling is easier when you don't look like yourself. When you look like a different person, you feel different. Acting goes deeper into that, you have to move and talk like that character. I love it.”

“To reduce the interpretation of the causality of all kinds of climate changes and of global warming to one variable, CO2, or to a small proportion of one variable - human-induced CO2 - is impossible to accept. Elementary rationality and my decades-long experience with econometric modelling and statistical testing of scientific hypotheses tell me that it is impossible to make strong conclusions based on mere correlation of two (or more) time series.”
