Why do we kill people who are killing people to show that killing people is wrong?

My creativity and my political work are linked. I don't do this work out of guilt or out of responsibility.

I am selfish. I reach for the world I want to live in. And I believe in leaving our best we can do to our children

The women's movement completely changed attitudes all over the world in ways we'll never be able to count.

When an audience comes to one of my concerts, I hope they'll see themselves, somewhere, in one of the songs.

In less than a century we experienced great movement. The youth movement! The labor movement! The civil rights movement! The peace movement! The solidarity movement! The women's movement! The disability movement! The disarmament movement! The gay rights movement! The environmental movement! Movement! Transformation! Is there any reason to believe we are done?

Leaping away from my mistakes has propelled me forward. It has great force behind it. It makes for great storytelling.
