active books chance country decided duty gave join meet needed particular return soldiers talked took vietnam war
I took every chance I could to meet with U.S. soldiers. I talked with them and read the books they gave me about the war. I decided I needed to return to my country and join with them - active duty soldiers and Vietnam Veterans in particular - to try and end the war.
war speech firsts
I never would've imagined in the first part of my life that I could've stood up and said anything. The war in Vietnam changed me. I was so angry. Some of my speeches probably weren't well considered.
war age trying
In this age of remote-controlled pushbutton war, we must all try very, very hard to remain human beings.
war men white-man
We understand that Nixon's aggression against Vietnam is a racist aggression, that the American war in Vietnam is a racist war, a white man's war...We deplore that you are being used as cannon fodder for U.S. imperialism. We've seen photographs of American bombs and antipersonnel weapons being dropped, wantonly, accidentally perhaps, on your heads, on the heads of your comrades.
country war heart
When women have reclaimed their voices and men reclaimed their hearts, we won't be invading countries, we won't be feeling that we have the right to launch preemptive wars.
war equal-pay people
Some people are surprised that the Republicans are waging a war on women, or that they voted against equal pay for women. I'm not surprised at all. In some ways, it may be a good thing. They're defending the patriarchy, which is a wounded beast! And wounded beasts are always dangerous.
war thinking rising
Women are rising. And I think that's all the violence and war - it could be the last gasp of the patriarchy, actually.

The script came along and it was funny and it gave me the chance to play an outrageous character and I've never done anything before quite like her,
love possible
Real love and intimacy can be much more possible when you're older.
narrow
promulgate their right wing, narrow world view. It really doesn't have anything to do with me and it's kind of sick.
available lead needed
Contraception is important. Making contraception available doesn't lead to promiscuity. But much more is needed than just contraception.
class good id paying wish
I wish that Id been able to have a class like this when I had my first kid, 'cause I was not a good mother, ... And then, you end up paying for it later.
beginning blot coffee cup fatal house inner left marked physical quickly seems simplest stain ultimate
It is extraordinary how the house and the simplest possessions of someone who has been left become so quickly sordid. Even the stain on the coffee cup seems not coffee but the physical manifestation of one's inner stain, the fatal blot that from the beginning had marked one for ultimate aloneness.
cultural decade discord split
The '60s may be idealized in the movie from a cultural point of view, but the decade was all about discord and a big generational split that was very painful.
