We need women friends, women who challenge us... I have chosen not to have any more plastic surgery. Sally Field and I have kind of made a pact about that. It's really hard, especially if you're a public person. But I want to give a face to aging.
The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind.

We hear about every other type of women: beautiful women, smart women, sophisticated women, career women, talented women, divorced women.

The biggest concern with female athletes is they don't naturally compete. And so I think a part of what we do here exceptionally well that separates us from other programs is we train them to compete.

So that's a huge challenge for me, to get the women in practice to go after each other the way you would a rival

There still aren't enough[ roles for women of color]. And I'd say that's the case, not only for African-American women, but for all women in the Hollywood game. It's just slim pickings, and a very challenging time for us. I think that's why more of us need to work our way behind the camera in order to create roles that really illuminate who women are. We still have room for growth in that area, without a doubt.
I think we have to fight the idea - that I think a lot of us have internalized - that it is difficult to work with other women. We really need to embrace collaboration with other women. We need to seek out other women to promote.

Feminism is a political practice of fighting male supremacy on behalf of women as a class, including all the women you don't like, including all the women you don't want to be around, including all the women who use to be your best friends whom you don't want anything to do with any more. It doesn't matter who the individual women are.
