I think it’s great for my boys to have a girl in the house, just to understand at least a little bit about what makes a woman tick – not that I can certainly figure that out, because I can’t. – Gisele Bundchen
As consumers, we need to demand that companies sell us sustainable products that do not disregard and destroy our natural world. – Gisele Bundchen
I have a lot of fruit trees and my own little vegetable garden and chickens. And every time I eat, I bless my food; I say I’m grateful for for it and let it nourish every part of my body. – Gisele Bundchen
I believe in feeling connected. Love is something that grows, that comes from nourishment; it builds. But there is a great feeling that happens, that is telling you, I don’t want to leave this room! – Gisele Bundchen
This is exactly how I would describe my work: ‘I get there, I put on the clothes, I leave it on the hanger, and I go home.’ And that’s what I do. – Gisele Bundchen
I want to get a farm where I am going to live for the rest of my life. I like the idea of a secluded place. – Gisele Bundchen
I was in the fashion shows in Milan; I was seventeen, I was doing like 100 shows. People were asking, ‘How does it feel to be the model of the moment?’ It was hard for me to answer as myself. I barely spoke English. – Gisele Bundchen
Everyone has an hour in their day to go and do something for somebody else; I don’t care how busy they are. – Gisele Bundchen
It was my first scene. My first day. We could have started with me drinking a beer, something a little less than having Barbies touching each other. But they started with that. – Gisele Bundchen
I did kung fu up until two weeks before Benjamin was born, and yoga three days a week. I think a lot of people get pregnant and decide they can turn into garbage disposals. I was mindful about what I ate, and I gained only 30 pounds. – Gisele Bundchen
If you’re wearing smoky eye makeup, a little beige or gold pencil on the inner eye corners will open up the area, but you only want to do it if the shadow is really dark. Otherwise, light pencil makes your eyes look too far apart, like a fish. – Gisele Bundchen
My intention in making a comment about the importance of breastfeeding has nothing to do with the law. It comes from my passion and beliefs about children. – Gisele Bundchen
I feel privileged to be a U.N. ambassador. It gives me an opportunity to use my voice to help raise awareness about important social and environmental issues. – Gisele Bundchen
Always, always powder your T-zone and the lines going from your nose down around your mouth so you don’t look like a bulldog. When those areas are shiny, it’s awful. And gloss will keep your lips from appearing dehydrated. – Gisele Bundchen
If I honour my needs first, I will be the best wife, the best mum, the best sister, the best friend. I have to come first, because then everyone benefits. – Gisele Bundchen
When I’m weak, you can be strong; when I’m strong, you can be weak. That’s what I believe marriage is. – Gisele Bundchen
I believe in taking chances and living your life. Sometimes doors open and others close and you have to figure out which one you’re going to take. I’m always for the one that’s challenging. – Gisele Bundchen
No matter how many shows I’ve done, as soon as they say it’s time to start, I get that nervous sensation and feel like I have to pee. So that’s where my mind is. That and making it to the end of the runway and back as fast as I can. – Gisele Bundchen
There should be a worldwide law, in my opinion, that mothers should breastfeed their babies for six months. – Gisele Bundchen
I’m not afraid of working hard at anything, whatever it is. I just always want to be the best that I can. – Gisele Bundchen
People have a perception of me because of Victoria’s Secret that I’m sexy, but I’m not a sexy girl. I’m very tomboyish. – Gisele Bundchen
My son is so fortunate, you know. He’s always going to have food. Yes, my children are going to be privileged, but that’s why it’s so important for them to see different realities and to travel, and they do already. – Gisele Bundchen
When I came to New York and I opened the window of the thirty-fifth-floor apartment, there’s light pollution and fog, and I couldn’t see my star. So I drew it on my wrist with a pen, but it kept washing away. Then I went to a tattoo parlor on Second Avenue and had it done. – Gisele Bundchen
You know, everyone says, ‘Modeling and acting are so similar’… they say, ‘It’s so natural for models to become actresses because they use the camera.’ I don’t think of it in that way. – Gisele Bundchen
My two grandmothers both died of cancer, so I understand how painful and difficult this disease is on the entire family. My first grandmother passed away from bone cancer when I was about 10. It was really horrible. I remember the whole process like it was yesterday. – Gisele Bundchen
