struggle thinking years
For many years now, I feel like my own body struggle has been linked and connected with women I meet in the world. I think we're in this together.
dream cancer ambition
Since cancer, I feel like I have dreams rather than ambitions, visions rather than plans.
love-is made
The love is all around us. I made a life of love.
violence want helping
I really want to help stop violence toward women.
tree causes looks
Do you say that tree isn't pretty cause it doesn't look like that tree? We're all trees. You're a tree. I'm a tree. You've got to love your body, Eve. You've got to love your tree. Love your tree. (Leah)
giving silence charity
I despise charity. It gives crumbs to a few and silences the others.
suicidal thinking humans
I think the human species is very suicidal.
real mountain want
I want to touch you in real time not find you on YouTube, I want to walk next to you in the mountains not friend you on Facebook.
women violence mechanism
The mechanism of violence is what destroys women, controls women, diminishes women and keeps women in their so-called place.
men thinking body
I think all my work's been about how do women get back into our bodies; how do men get back. We're all disassociated.
thinking nuclear fukushima
I think we have to get bolder. Why after Fukushima didn't we all go out and shut down all the nuclear power plants and stay there until it happened?
people afraid-to-love
People are more afraid to love than they are to kill.
pain loneliness dark
...to speak of them out loud, to speak of their hunger and pain and loneliness and humour, to make them visible so that can not be ravaged in the dark without great consequence.
judging body end-of-the-world
When I wrote 'The Good Body,' I turned 40 and suddenly had this stomach. It seemed like the end of the world. Because I didn't value my body. I was constantly judging it, but I also didn't live in it.
