When I was at the age when you were supposed to be glamorous if you were a movie star, I wasn't.

I think I look good for my age. I've always looked younger than I really am. I'm 67 and I look about, maybe 62 or something like that. And I think my healthy lifestyle has paid off. I suffer from osteoarthritis. That's genetic and there's nothing I can do about that, except to try and not jump up and down, but rather swim and bike, instead of jumping up and down.

Look what scares you in the face and try to understand it. Empathy is revolutionary.

Magazines, books, novels, TV, internet, movies - all of those things is what creates our consciousness.

We understand that Nixon's aggression against Vietnam is a racist aggression, that the American war in Vietnam is a racist war, a white man's war...We deplore that you are being used as cannon fodder for U.S. imperialism. We've seen photographs of American bombs and antipersonnel weapons being dropped, wantonly, accidentally perhaps, on your heads, on the heads of your comrades.

Telling lies and showing off to get attention are mistakes I made that I don't want my kids to make.

Denial can be a pathology or a survival mechanism - and sometimes it's both.
