We all do the wrong thing. And then we have to wake up the next morning and live with the fact that we have done things that are wrong.

And the ones that know you so well are the ones that can swallow you whole.

But where do we come up with this notion of a woman in which the less space you take up, the more you're worth?

You know how people say they're either like a cat or a dog? I feel like a cat. I just want to be alone. Isn't that weird? It's a lot to take in.

Some of us have such incredible things that can keep us from acting. We have the luxury of drinking such good wine, and having such good information at our fingertips. I can look up anything on my computer. And I can call any friend at the drop of a hat on my cell phone. And I can have beautiful clothing and great food in a world where people are being tortured. I have some responsibility for that.

I fear that to fall in love with you is to fall from a great and gruesome height.

A lot of men were also becoming more attuned and less afraid of women [in the nineties ].
