“Weight isn’t important the way magazines make you think it is. I know a girl who just looks at her face in the medicine cabinet mirrior & never looks below her shoulders, & she’s four or five hundred pounds but she doesn’t see all that, she just sees a beautiful face & therefore she thinks she’s a beauty. & therefore i think she’s a beauty, too, becasue i usually accept people on the basis of their self-images, because their self-images have more to do with the way they think than their objective-images do. Maybe she’s six hundred pounds, who knows. If she doesn’t care, I don’t. ”
