A Quote by Andrea Dworkin
As long as there is rape... there is not going to be any peace or justice or equality or freedom. You are not going to become what you want to become or who you want to become. You are not going to live in the world you want to live in.

My career, I look at it in a Darwinian framework. I'm going to do exactly what I want, and I'm going to survive, or I'm not. I'm not going to pander. I'm not going to change things. I'm not going to do focus groups. I'll live and die by the sword. I don't care. Because I couldn't live with myself.

As long as I'm living, I'm always going to try and become and get to whatever is next. Even when I become this one thing, when I get there, I'm going to try and become something else. As human beings, as long as we're alive, we're forever becoming.
We want freedom. We want freedom from the constraints of the cycles of the sun and the moon.

It isn't really important to decide when you are very young just exactly what you want to become when you grow up. It is much more important to decide on the way you want to live.
