I have no complaints, except for the world.

I think that every so-called history book and film biography should be prefaced by the statement that what follows is the author's rendition of events and circumstances.

All violence is the illustration of a pathetic stereotype.

Things change and work changes. Right now I like the idea of enveloping a space and getting messages across that connect to the world in ways that seem familiar but are different.

I think I developed language skills to deal with threat. It's the girl thing to do-you know, instead of pulling out a gun.

If I bring up political power, personal power, it sounds like they're my terms, and they're not.

Do you know why language manifests itself the way it does in my work? It's because I understand short attention spans.
