Sarah Shahi Quotes
- I did a lot of theater growing up, and in college I was in the musical ‘Chicago.’
- My great-great-grandfather was a shah back in the 1800s. Unfortunately, I don’t have any gold coins or jewels to show for it.
- My mother raised three kids on her own, so I was taught that to be a working mom was a good thing.
- NFL cheerleading is harder than most people think. They train up to six hours every day with games on Sundays. They gave me a great work ethic.

- When I was in my early 20s, I looked towards exterior things to make me feel sexy – guys, clothes, shoes, etc. Now it’s all about how I feel internally.
- You know, I never really paid attention to sports, which, coming from the mecca of football in Texas, is kind of odd. I played sports, but I was nerdy. Having a single mother, the pressure was on me to get good grades and a scholarship and go to college.
