I've a tiny little scar on my chin from when I fell over on stage, bust my chin open and bled everywhere.

Kate Nash

I always had a weak chin because we couldn't afford to correct my bite, which could have been corrected with braces. So the chin was always weak. And I always was - kind of hated my profile. And I thought wouldn't it be nice someday to feel the rain on your chin without having to look up.

Designer clothes worn by children are like snowsuits worn by adults. Few can carry it off successfully.

Fran Lebowitz

The crazy thing is I got all of these shoes, and probably 80 percent of them I've never worn before. I've worn all the glasses. I sleep in them, bend them up a little bit. Glasses are on all the time except when I'm at practice or at work.

Von Miller
