If you do not love yourself, well, you cannot do anything well, that's my philosophy.

Unity is power; without unity women cannot fight for their rights anywhere.

When you are intelligent and beautiful you face a lot of problems. If you are beautiful and stupid then it's easy.

When we live in a world that is very unjust, you have to be a dissident.

Home is where you are appreciated, safe and protected, creative, and where you are loved - not where you are put in prison.

You know, I look to myself mainly as a creative writer all my life and a medical doctor.
