In a certain light, feminism is just the long, slow realization that the stuff you love hates you

Just live! Live now! Don't wait, and don't let anyone tell you that you're a work in progress.

Indignation and determination are much more constructive emotions than shame and embarrassment. And feminism was this engine that turned one into the other.

We only get one life. Wasting someone's time is the subtlest form of murder.

It’s hard to feel hurt or frightened when you’re flooded with pity.

When I started to internalize fat positivity and believe it, my response was the same one I had when I started to understand the scope of gender inequality: deep indignation.

I don't want any woman to think that I don't have empathy and deep care for all women's body issues. I just want to make sure that we don't only focus on the most palatable ones.

There were moments from my childhood when I remembered realizing that I was too big. I carried them around as weapons to use against myself, to remind myself there was something wrong with me.

Why, when men hate themselves, it’s women who take the beatings.

Real change is slow, hard, and imperceptible.

Feminism is really just the long slow realization that the things you love hate you.

My heartbeat shall be hope.

In my opinion, kissing a lady's hand is a fine tradition. After all, a man must start somewhere.

You can't figure out the Universe, especially if you're using figures to figure it.

To forget the elderly is to ignore the wisdom of the years.

Every man is tasked to make his life, even in its details, worthy of the contemplation of his most elevated and critical hour.

It was too nerve-wracking, a shocking spectacle, like seeing an old, calm friend go insane.

I don't like the term 'ensemble.' It's bland to me.

It's certainly more interesting for me as an actor, but I think it's also more interesting for the audience to see three-dimensional characters, rather than just a bad guy or a good guy.

The issue is jobs. You can't get away from it: jobs. Having a buck or two in your pocket and feeling like somebody.
