Every woman must own her story; otherwise we are all part of the silence.

The single thing all women need in the world is inspiration, and inspiration comes from storytelling.

If half the society isn't engaged on any number of sectors, success and potential will be limited. In that sense, I do definitely believe there is a growing movement and moment for women's issues.

I find it amazing that the only group of people who are not fighting and not killing and not pillaging and not burning and not raping, and the group of people who are mostly — though not exclusively — who are keeping life going in the midst of war, are not included in the negotiating table.

Only 8 percent of peace talks have included women at any level.

The front[line] of wars is increasingly non-human eyes peering down on our perceived enemies from space, guiding missiles toward unseen targets.

Living in war is a co- existence with death.
