My Life So Far

But the whole point of liberation is that you get out. Restructure your life. Act by yourself.

We're not meant to be perfect; we're meant to be whole.

I have a confidence about my life that comes from standing tall on my own two feet.

In my mind it takes a special kind of courage to risk your life in another country, for your own country. The men and women who came back and spoke out were a special kind of hero.

I have people in my life who will say, 'Honey, you're trying too hard.' I like being saucy, but I'm 73 and a half. I'm still trying to find my way between matronly and coltishness.
