"I cook the food of Macau, my roots and soul food."
"I am China, pronounced as Chee-na. And I think it's time the world lets older women age gracefully."
"No man has ever paid a single bill in my life - I didn't want it."
"I do not really shop. Most of my clothes I make. I dress simply."
"When people ask me about modeling, what it was like, I say, "It was fabulous!" If you can use it in the right way - to travel to meet other people, to learn how to dress, to make some money - I think it's great. But I also think it takes girls. If they don't know how to handle themselves, or if they do it just for a little time and are not successful, then they get terribly depressed about themselves."
