First and foremost, I'm a feminist. And basically that stems from a strong belief that all people and creatures deserve equal opportunity, rights and respect.

We must respect the past, and mistrust the present, if we wish to provide for the safety of the future.

Of course, everybody makes mistakes, and we've all been young and stupid. But people need to have a sense of respect, particularly in this business, because hundreds of people are ready to take your place at any time. Maybe some people should think about that.

Great authors are admirable in this respect: in every generation they make for disagreement. Through them we become aware of our differences.

Respect the masterpiece. It is true reverence to man. There is no quality so great, none so much needed now.
