"Modeling can be fun, lucrative, and rewarding - but it requires a certain rare, tempered composition. A modeling career runs a course right through the thickest and most dangerous areas in the ego; it focuses on looks and popularity, asks you to put on performances of various roles on various stages, eats significantly into personal time and similarly puts incredible stress on personal relationships for many. The way the industry works even seems designed to draw it out and amplify the suspense as much as possible, as if to purposely build you up and knock you down - but the reality isn't actually so, truth is it's just business. A model has to handle all of that professionally, not personally."
- William Lewis on being a model
