Most people compliment me on maintaining my femininity while I'm on the court. People like the fact that I model. My fans or little girls always say they want to play sports but also want to be a model like me and I think that's great.

I don't think there's anything that is a greater area of discrimination against women today than the fact that nowhere in the world is there a female role model in team sports that more than half of a general audience would recognize.

Sports is a metaphor for overcoming obstacles and achieving against great odds. Athletes in times of difficulty can be important role models.

There are relatively few role models for young people. We are in a society that is ruled by men.

The model of ownership in a society organized round mass consumption is addiction.

The purpose of science is not to analyze or describe but to make useful models of the world. A model is useful if it allows us to get use out of it.

The usual approach of science of constructing a mathematical model cannot answer the questions of why there should be a universe for the model to describe. Why does the universe go to all the bother of existing?

No matter how old and glorious the models sad indeed is the woman who sees fashion as a means of self-expression rather than an agent of social control.

Women today are dealing with both their independence and also the fact that their lives are built around finding and satisfying the romantic models we grew up with.

My father was an inspiration to me I made a few movies with him and I loved working with him. Everything about him - his whole approach to work as well as his love enthusiasm and respect for it and other people in the business - was inspiring. I was very lucky to have him as a role model.

I had never been to a fashion show before going to the Burberry show last month. It was an extraordinary spectacle. I was incredibly green and had no idea what an undertaking it is. I also have a new respect for models because they are so close to the front row and must be so self-conscious.

Everyone in society should be a role model not only for their own self-respect but for respect from others.

Organized religion provides a model of the way all organizations from the state down to the village garden club end a price in terms of a member's freedom of thought and action.

The point here is that physics followed the data where it seemed to lead even though some thought the model gave aid and comfort to religion.

Some people are that - more than a parent more than a role model more than anything less than a religion.

The good man is he who rules himself as he does his own property: his autonomous being is modelled on material power.

There are so many little girls who follow me and look up to me. I'm their role model so I have to make sure I'm always being professional and not putting any swear words out there - just really putting positive things out there on the Internet.

I really believe that's one of the many reasons that God had put me right in the middle of the Backstreet Boys. There are so many stars today that don't realize the impact they have on young people. Being a superstar is great as long as you can be a positive role model.

The reason most of the children are having problems in any inner-city neighborhood is because they don't see enough positive role models in their own environment.

That's really my goal now. I'm trying to be a positive role model to my kids and to just enjoy this ride because it's hard. It's hard to enjoy it when you're in it.

I've tried to take the opportunity to be as positive a person as I can be as positive role model as I can be.

Since turning professional at 18 I have travelled the world playing the game that I love and consider myself a global player. As the World No.1 right now I wish to be a positive role model and a sportsperson that people respect and enjoy watching.

I've always kind of lived my life to be as much as possible a positive role model for children.
