Katie Price is no exception. She, too, is - in a distinctive way - a philosopher. Partially, Katie Price's philosophy is one of extraordinary confidence. She is remarkable not for her looks or antics but because of her tremendous self-assurance and her unwillingness to be intimidated by criticism or failure.

It's clear to me that there is no good reason for many philosophy books to sound as complicated as they do.

I think of myself as quite a shy person. But when I'm curious about something, I'll go quite far to satisfy my curiosity.

Learning to give up on perfection may be just about the most romantic move any of us could make.

I have not supported same-sex marriage. I have supported civil partnerships and contractual relationships.

When I was a teenager, if you'd asked me, I would have said I was in a relationship with New York City. It was my first real love.

Basically, I want that relationship where we have that love. I love her so much, and she loves me so much that it's just - you want that relationship where you look into the girl's eyes, and you know that she's everything you've ever wanted. When I find that, I'm going to get it!

I love movies, of course. 'Terminator 3' and 'Bad Boys II' - lots of action. Sports movies, action movies, comedies - I'll go to those, but not 'las de amor.' Not romance. It's not that I don't like love, but on the screen it bores me.
