There are so many great artists that are doing interesting things, that I don't want to focus on boring people.

I would much rather be the obnoxious feminist girl than be complicit in my own dehumanization.

I'm not going to sit around and be peace and love with somebody's boot on my neck.

Feminism is something you do. It's a verb. It's what you are. It's an activity; it's something you're actively engaged in.
