In the late '60s and '70s, when feminism was on the up sweep, there was an awareness of things that we're losing again.

I'm somebody who can absorb a lot.

I love performing. I love being a provocateur. I love putting myself in situations that are uncomfortable and that I have to get out of.

There are so few women in general who aren't completely threatened and confused by other women's success. It's very disappointing.

I'm not saying I'm some high priestess. I do things, I'm sure, that are damaging, but it's certainly not on purpose.

I think so much of what informs us as performers is what we had to endure as kids growing up. I was the youngest in my family. I always got a lot of attention.

I've always been opposed to groups. I can't believe the doctrine of group is going to work for every single person within the group.
