I Think All My Work's Been About

Anorexia Was My Attempt To Have Control Over My Body And Manipulate My Body And Starve My Body And Shape My Body. It Was Not A Very Good Relationship. It Was The Sort Of Relationship My Father Had To My Body. It Was A Tyrannical, "you'll Do What I Tell You" Relationship.

If You Are Divided From Your Body, Then You Are Divided From The Body Of The World.

The People Who Are On The Front Lines Every Day In Hospitals, Nurses, The People Who Are Running Clinics, The People Who Are Taking Care Of Your Children, Those Are The People Who Are The Lovers Of The World, Are The Good 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.

If You Just Look At The Fact That A Woman Was Central In Twittering The Cairo Revolution, And Women Were Central To The Tunisian Uprising. Women Are At The Center Of Everything Right Now And Moving Everything Forward. And I Do Think In The Next Year Or Two, We Are Going To See Such A Woman Spring, Such A Rising.
