Carly Simon
You know when you take the paint off an old canvas and you discover that something's been painted underneath it? That's what I feel like - that part of the old is coming through the new.

Carly Simon
All men are created equal and all women are created equal as well, but [equality] seems much clearer when it comes to race issues.
