I've never had a very closely connected family. My parents split up when I was young and I was living with my mom for a little while, then I was kind of just on my own really young. It wasn't some kind of global tragedy, it was just never really a very close-knit family. So there was support in the sense that they didn't stand in my way.

I'm still talking about it. I still drop the P-word, patriarchy, on unsuspecting people in everyday conversations.

The way I play guitar is very, very hard and I bloody myself incredibly without the tape. And the nails are my picks.

You can't start with imbalance and end with peace, be that in your own body, in an ecosystem or between a government and its people. What we need to strive for is not perfection, but balance.

In order to keep anything cultural, logical, or ideological, you have to reinvent the reality of it.

I am not a pretty girl. I don't want to be a pretty girl. No, I want to be more than a pretty girl.

If a politician is running in your local community who's pro-choice, who's feminist in their thinking, get behind them. Send them some money! If you have no money but have time, lick stamps!

I want somebody who sees the pointlessness and still keeps their purpose in mind I want somebody who has a tortured soul ...some of the time
