Jyoti Amge quotes:

It's hard for me to reach things. It's good I have brothers and sisters to help.

I'm not looking for a boyfriend - but if I was, he'd have to be prepared to carry me around everywhere.

One of the problems with being famous is people mob you wherever you go. Many of them ask very irritating questions. If I were not the shortest woman in the world, I would not have become famous.

I would like to be an actress in Hollywood and win an Oscar. The only difference is my height.

When people see me on TV, they become very happy because they don't have to interact with me. When they start interacting with me, they ask me questions like I'm a baby or treat me like I'm a baby and hold me like I'm a baby, and that's what they do wrong, really.

The worst part about being so small is that I always have to rely on someone. I can't go anywhere on my own, so I'm always dependent. I can't run or walk too fast. If I was taller for a day, I'd just go off on my own independently.
