I don't want other people to decide who I am. I want to decide that for myself.

Hindsight is obviously a very great thing, but I'm always convinced that the reason that I didn't take as many politics or history classes is because I just didn't see any women. I didn't think when I was 13, 14 that that had anything to do with me. I just didn't see women in my textbooks.

And I always keep cards people send me. I have a whole wall covered with them.
