"Prepare yourself for whatever you want to do in life. If pageants happen to be part of that, fine. However, it shouldn't be a primary goal, because you can't have a career as a beauty queen....I admire the traditional woman, those with style. Style comes from a strong sense of self, a strong sense that you have done and are doing something with your life."
Sherry Nelson Brule, "Who Is Jayne Jayroe Now?" The Sunday Oklahoman, 7/2/1978, p. 4
