Cancer was the most terrifying, arduous, painful thing, but it was also a profound gift in the sense that I was holding so much in my body for so many years that was dark and terrifying which was preventing my coming back into myself.

The only point of having power it seems to me is to empower others. The only point of leadership is to inspire.

Some days I would get so exhausted, nauseous, in pain - just from going back through things. It's almost as if I had the experience and then the meta-experience.

You have to give to the world the thing that you want the most, in order to fix the broken parts inside you.

When you rape, beat, maim, mutilate, burn, bury, and terrorize women, you destroy the essential life energy on the planet.

stop fixing your bodies and start fixing the world!

I think violence against women in America has become ordinary - it's been made absolutely acceptable.
