older-women jokes
When you're an older woman [in a movie], you are the brunt of the joke.
women silence subversive
So much conspires to silence us - because our truths are inherently subversive.
girl education women
Teach girls to read and to work at something where they can bring home money - and the entire balance of power shifts.
running women long
Every woman should eat for the long run so she can manage the short stops of crisis.
women memorable wrinkles
Women are not forgiven for aging. Robert Redford's lines of distinction are my old-age wrinkles.
men men-and-women left
A lot of things affect women differently than men, and women get left out.
women liberation restructure
But the whole point of liberation is that you get out. Restructure your life. Act by yourself.
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.
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.
soul musical acting
What's totally terrifying is that, unlike a musician who has a musical instrument, or a painter that's got a canvas and a brush, acting is us. Our energy, our soul, our spirits. And it's so hard because it's so vulnerable. You're exposing everything.
powerful talking soul
I found that you're more powerful when talking from your soul.
perfect good-enough enough
Good enough is good enough. We're not supposed to be perfect. We're supposed to be complete.
nice thinking years
I left acting for 15 years, and I think it's really nice to have another life. I took too much for granted when I was younger.
be-good
When you're told to be good, you have to get rid of whatever is bad. I sure identify with that.
