It is a different world than when I was growing up, and you started to just kind of maintain at thirty-five and just hope you can hope it together. People are a lot more vital than I am and doing all kinds of things and leading really important movements.

It will be great when it's not such a big deal when a woman gets a good job.

If you walk down the street and see someone in a box, you have a choice. That person is either the other and you're fearful of them, or that person is an extension of your family. And that makes you at home in that world and not fearful. So really it's very self-serving.

I was told I had an overabundance of original sin.

I try to live my life every day in the present, and try not to turn a blind eye to injustice and need.
