In grade school, my mother, who was a professional tailor, would make all my clothes. I became obsessed with designing them myself.

Being asked by Oprah Winfrey to be on her show and do her eyebrows in 2006 - to me, that was like getting an Oscar. It was a stamp of approval from a woman that is incredible. It propelled my career to a different level.

My goal is always to bring a sense of balance, symmetry, and proportion to each individual face. The brows are an essential starting point.

My secret for over pluckers is to keep some brow pencil on your brows at all times, even when you go to bed... If you keep product on your brows at all times they will always appear perfect, and you will not obsess on every little hair that is out of place.

I can't consciously explain how people feel after reading my books. All is too personal.

Learning is not limited to the classroom, and Minnesota shouldn't limit its education resources there, either.

I was only fifteen when I finished my high-school studies, always having held first rank in my class. The fatigue of growth and study compelled me to take almost a year's rest in the country. I then returned to my father in Warsaw, hoping to teach in the free schools.

I commend the parents who are sending their children to a Catholic school, because they're making a sacrifice, and they're paying twice for their child's education: They're paying the tuition, and they're paying taxes.
