MT [Mother Teresa] was not a friend of the poor. She was a friend of poverty. She said that suffering was a gift from God. She spent her life opposing the only known cure for poverty, which is the empowerment of women and the emancipation of them from a livestock version of compulsory reproduction. ↗

I practice karate moves when I think nobody is watching. It’s all part of being a real American badass, I guess. Chicks dig it. I mean they would, if they ever looked and caught me in a moment of awesomeness.

All my life,I've been afraid of things, as a child and a woman must be. I lied about it naturally. I fancied myself a witch and walked in dark streets to punish myself for my doubts. But I knew what it meant to be afraid. ↗

Вечер угасне електричеството.Обгърне ме благодетелна тъмнина.Все едно че съм сама.Никой не ме вижда.Дори мога да плача.Какво блаженство!Да плачеш,без да те питат защо плачеш,без да те утешават.Но за такова щастие се изисква тренировка:да плачеш,без да издадеш никакъв звук,и да си готов да отговориш на внезапен въпрос с най-невинен глас:”Четката е на етажерката! ↗
