Food = joy ... guilt ... anger ... pain ... nurturing ... friendship ... hatred ... the way you look and feel.... Food = everything you can imagine.

I don't value authority. I don't value the systems. I don't value patriarchal religion. I don't value the things that diminish you when you do tell the truth. So I'm not scared of the end result, and that is the biggest asset I have.

My father instilled in me that if you don't see things happening the way you want them to, you get out there and make them happen.

Isn't it interesting how men 'leave' their families, but women 'abandon' their children?

I'm not a role model to my kids. They're a role model to me.

The more people I meet, the farther out of my own little world I go, the more I see that we are all alike. And there isn't one of us who can afford to pick up the rock in the glass house.

The habits that took years to build, do not take a day to change.
