"I had gained so much confidence through my college achievements that I wanted to tackle the world." — Donna Rice

I'm stronger knowing that while Donna Rice could be sold, she could not be bought.

It was hard to turn down the money since I didn't have a job, but I didn't want to exploit my notoriety because I knew the way I'd been living was wrong.

Before the group left, Gary asked for my phone number, and the next day he called to ask me to dinner that night. I had no idea he was married, but I found out that night.

I've had to recover not only from a single well-publicized incident, but several years of press aftermath.
