cheap incapable leaves life love showing spends telling
I don't want to make a cheap analysis, but when you have, like I did, a father incapable of showing emotion, who spends his life telling you that no one will love you if you aren't perfect, it leaves scars.
elder trying wisdom
I'm now the elder in the position of doling out wisdom and trying to mend fences.
feminism fuller lead letting people women
Feminism is not just about women; it's about letting all people lead fuller lives.
wing
what the right wing has done to Sheehan is despicable.
determine presents
What we view in the media - and who presents it to us - does so much to determine how we think, how we feel about ourselves, and how we view the world.
accept age birth educated girls longer money nation neither nor time waste
We can no longer waste time and money. Every day, more than 2,000 girls in America, age 15-19, give birth - in the wealthiest, most educated nation in the world! Neither you nor I should accept this statistic.

Yeah, but I can look at it now and laugh at it, and find it very charming,

I knew that my newfound activism and feminism was going to improve my acting, because I was seeing things not just in very narrow, individual, kind of Freudian terms, but seeing them in a much broader, societal way that was going to deepen and enrich my talent.
successful men long
My identity depended on men for so long. You can be successful and still have the feeling that if you're not with a man you don't exist.
war speech firsts
I never would've imagined in the first part of my life that I could've stood up and said anything. The war in Vietnam changed me. I was so angry. Some of my speeches probably weren't well considered.
names trying nuance
Mostly actors are progressive because we are accustomed to all the nuances of human life, whereas dictators just try to flatten it all out. So we usually try to stand up to dictators like, well, we won't mention names.
writing scary up-to-you
Movies are collective, cooperative endeavours, which I like a lot. But writing is all up to you, it's what's so scary; it's just you and that page. But I really like it a lot.
