We accept there's an emotional aspect to life. But we're not very developed in our ways of understanding it.

From a child's point of view, there is rarely a great time for parents to separate, even if there has been a lot of commotion and fighting.

Bodies are becoming our personal mission to tame, extend and perfect.

I wish we could treat our bodies as the place we live from, rather than regard it as a place to be worked on, as though it were a disagreeable old kitchen in need of renovation and update.

The insistence that the commercialisation of the body is a fit subject for political discussion and intervention is well overdue.

The parents' job is to be there for their kids, not the other way round. Troubles between parents need to be talked through with friends and not visited on the children.

I think it is one of the capacities of human beings, to create style.
