Victoria Beckham Quotations | Page 2

Before I became famous I used to think there's no smoke without fire. But believe me, there can be a fire without smoke.

Some people aren't satisfied that I'm a gay man in a woman's body and swear that I'm secretly a real boy.

I've been in the public eye for about 15 or 16 years and I'm very aware that fame is not a given. I have to maintain it. It's not just something that will always be there.

Sometimes it's frustrating if I'm out with the kids and have to deal with the paparazzi. That comes with it though. But it was fun becoming famous. I mean, I even wanted to one of the kids in FAME when I was growing up.

I don't wear heels every day, but when I'm out, that's how I feel confident.

I consider all of my pieces to be investment pieces. A dress shouldn't be worn for one season - you should be able to wear it year after year.

Fame is not like a jacket. You can't put it on and then take it off.

I take care of myself. I work out every day. I eat healthy. But I like to have fun too.

I'm not worried about what's in fashion, what's not in fashion, what are the colors of the season. I go with my gut instinct because every time I haven't it's been a mistake.

The only time I get upset by things written about me - when people write irresponsible things about my weight.... I appreciate that young girls look up to me. And I take that very seriously.

It's not healthy to be jealous.

Sunglasses always hide a multitude of sins. Sunglasses and a great pair of heels can turn most outfits around.

More than anyone, I am aware of the preconceptions. I was a Spice Girl. I'm married to a footballer.

I can't concentrate in flats.

He (David Beckham) does have a huge one, though. He does. You can see it in the advert. It is all his. It is like a tractor exhaust pipe!

If you can get your head around your dream it means your dream isn't big enough.

If I set my mind to something I do it. My biggest wish for all of us is that we are happy, successful, and that we stay true to ourselves.

I never take anything for granted. I think it's very cool to still get excited about things. I get as excited now as I ever did when I get a chauffeur driven car pick me up and I stay in a fantastic hotel or get to fly in a private plane. I never want to get blasé.

Everybody changes. I love fashion, and I love changing my style, my hair, my makeup, and everything I've done in the past has made me what I am now. Not everyone is going to like what I do, but I look back at everything, and it makes me smile.

I think the sexiest thing about a woman is confidence, but confidence in a humble way, not in an arrogant way.

I've always been a worker. I've never expected be given anything.

And while everybody was busy laughing, what was I doing? I was laying the foundation to what I have in place now.

I dress sexily - but not in an obvious way. Sexy in a virginal way

I can live with my own mistakes. I can't live with anybody else's.

Most famous people get younger and younger. I sometimes ask myself that question: 'How come I'm the only person who's getting older?'

I was never a natural. I got there in the end because I did believe that if you work hard enough, then you can achieve a lot.

I read once that elegance is a privilege of age. I thought, that's so true. You get more comfortable with yourself as you get older.

Just as I love women, I love gay men. I always say it: inside me there is a gay man who wants to come out.

[My boys] bloody well will work. Same as myself, same as David. They're not going to be the kinds of kids that just hang about. I want them to be able to fulfill their passions, but I think it's important that the children grow up and have respect for themselves.

I was very obsessed. I mean, I could tell you the fat content and the calorie content in absolutely anything.

There need to be more women supporting women. Not just in fashion, in general.

I can relax in L.A. I think I'm the only person in that town who doesn't want to act. I was an OK singer. I was an OK dancer. But acting? Never could do it.

I do go to football sometimes but I don't know the offside rule or free-kicks - or side kicks - or whatever they're called.

I’m smiling on the inside. I feel I have a responsibility to the fashion community.

What do you wear on a running machine? I can't bring myself to wear flat shoes.

I used to feel famous, but now I feel successful.

I have no intention of ever working with the (Spice) girls again.

When I'm lying in bed I think about the next collection. That makes me sound insane, doesn't it? That I'm getting into bed with David Beckham and thinking about clothes.

I am eating more. I think you do eat more when you're working out. And you want to eat healthily, so it's good all round.

I believe in creative visualization.
