My neighborhood was rough, but I live a great life now. I don't fight that much now. I don't look for it anyway, but if someone hits your mother, whether you're a star, an accountant, or an astronaut or anything... I mean it's your mother, so I lost my mind. ↗

I think a child should be allowed to take his father's or mother's name at will on coming of age. Paternity is a legal fiction. ↗

I was a kid, and I remember my mother singing. She was also a radio soap opera actress, but my mother sang. ↗

Even though mother's issues are not front page news, they touch us all personally, some more than others, and I believe passionately in the power of grassroots engagement. ↗
