When I talk about feminism and what I think the women's movement needs more of, it's not to detract from anything going on - I think everything going on is fantastic - but there's this missing element. I think we could learn from our detractors a little bit because I feel like they have a plan, a better understanding of things than we necessarily do. You can't change things if you don't understand the other people involved. And if you don't understand yourself, you'll never change.

I don't think I'm an outsider at all.

It's so normal for a teenager to dress in black -- and be real unhappy and stay in your room and say sarcastic things. How could something so normal be considered morbid?

I was really bored and unhappy in school, and I used to act out and do horrible things.

I can't think of anything that I turned down that became big and successful.

I once ate McDonald's three times in one day.

Real tears are not those that fall from the eyes and cover the face, but those that fall from the heart and cover the soul.
