“As women, we need to stand together. We are judged and objectified often enough by men.”

“At the end of the day, we came into the world naked, and that's the way we're going to go.”

“Dealing with negative comments is part of this job, and I've had to develop a thick skin, though some days it's easier than others.”

“Everything I do lands in the newspapers.”

“For me, a snack is supposed to be unhealthy! I like having chips or popcorn when I'm on set.”

“I am not really into paintings, to be honest, but for me, the art I love is when I see singers putting their heart into their song, actors giving the performance of their lives, and books and movies that make me feel something I never thought I could; there's art in everything as long as it's made with soul.”

“I don't have any rules about what to wear when I go out. I go through phases. Sometimes I'll go out in jeans and a top and not even wear heels. Sometimes I want to be more sexy, in a dress and heels.”

“I find most of the things I've done through the Internet. I'm like, 'Oh, that's how that turned out! I look good!'”

“I grew up in Portugal, and people there party 'til 7 or 8 in the morning there.”

“I hate being barefoot.”

“I hate having my feet touching stuff. And I've been finding people that have the same thing. It's not a phobia; it just gives me goose bumps.”

“I have a dog. He cuddles with me all night, so I don't really need a boyfriend.”

“I have no dating life.”

“I just think no one should try to make their body something that it's not.”

“I just try to love my body, to embrace who I am and really be the best version of myself. You have to know how much you're worth.”

“I like to start my day after noon. I'm not a morning person at all!”

“I love all the teenager stuff like 'Glee,' '90210,' 'Vampire Diaries,' 'Gossip Girl.'”

“I love simple, elegant clothing with a hint of sexy, and that, for me, is so hard to find. I usually always end up finding Australian brands, and Kookai is an example of that.”

“I moisturise a lot. I use Victoria Secret's hydrating body lotion.”

“I must have, like, four different types of lip moisturizer in my bag!”

“I shoot swimsuits and lingerie all the time, so I want to make sure I'm in the best shape. It makes me want to work out harder than usual.”

“I tend to curve my back or pop my hip on the side. I always like to turn a little bit profile, and if you put one of your knees in, it also gives the illusion of more curves. There are a lot of tricks - you learn on the job sometimes.”

“I think my first album was a gift for my birthday and a Faith Hill album; I loved her.”

“I try and avoid cardio because it makes me lose a lot of weight. Instead, I do resistance training, model fit workouts, and ballet.”

“I try to work out twice a week. I don't restrict myself from any food in my diet; I think it's all about balance. I'm also very lucky with my genetics and metabolism.”

“If I do something, I want to be the best. And one of the best things you can be is a Victoria's Secret Angel; for me, that's always been a goal.”

“I'm going to be a very bad Portuguese right now - I'm actually not a fan of pastel de natas. I'm just not a fan of cream.”

“I'm like every other girl; there are things I wish I could change about my body, but I try not to think about them too much.”

“I'm pretty comfortable stripping down to my underwear, as long as there's respect around me.”

“I'm very lazy when it comes to taking care of my underwear. I should hand wash it all, but I can't be bothered. So instead, I keep ruining stuff by putting it in the washing machine.”

“In New York, I am barely recognised, or people don't really care. When I go to Portugal, I go outside to a public place and am recognised constantly.”

“In Porto, you have to eat francesinha. Translated, it means 'little French girl.' It's this sandwich of bread, ham, and a lot of beef sausage or other meats. Then you put melted cheese on the top. The special thing about it is the sauce. Each house makes a special secret sauce, and it's usually a bit spicy.”

“I've always had very high aims for my life and for my career, for anything that I do.”

“I've always loved English and loved English music and TV shows.”

“Lisbon is incredibly beautiful.”

“Most of the time, I do my own hair. I have good hair, so I don't need much. I don't need a hairdresser to come unless I want something very specific.”

“My body doesn't have a lot of curves; I have small breasts, I don't have hips - so I'm not going to try to make myself something that I'm not. I'm just going to try to be the best version of myself.”

“My favorite nights out are the most random ones - when they start at a bowling alley and end up someplace you don't even know where. Those are my favorite - the most random ones that you don't plan, when you meet up with friends, and you're supposed to do something and end up doing something else.”

“My guilty pleasure is definitely candy! Skittles are my favourite.”

“New York cold gets into your bones, and you can't move.”

“The worst is when you read things on the Internet blogs, because people don't hold back. Sometimes you read wonderful things, but sometimes it's really awful stuff. Like on the Fashion Spot, for example, people always comment on you. They forget that we might read that stuff.”

“There aren't a lot of Portuguese models, so everyone always expects me to be Brazilian because of my features, sometimes even American, as I have a slight American accent when I speak English.”

“Try to be the best version of yourself.”

“When it comes to beauty, I feel that hanging with people you love, laughing, and doing silly things gets your spirits up. We are always prettier when we are happier.”

“When posing in lingerie, I suck everything in and pop my hip out a little bit. If you lie on your side and draw one knee in a bit, it makes you look more curvalicious.”

“When we go somewhere, my dad will start shouting my name very loudly. He'll yell, 'Oh, my God, it's Sara Sampaio!' My brother does the same.”

“You can achieve anything you put your mind and hard work to.”
