QUOTES

If we get a government that reflects more of what this country is really about, we can turn the century -- and the economy -- around.

The test for whether or not you can hold a job should not be the arrangement of your chromosomes.

I am not being facetious when I say that the real enemies in this country are the Pentagon and its pals in big business.

The inside operation of Congress -- the deals, the compromises, the selling out, the co-opting, the unprincipled manipulating, the self-serving career-building -- is a story of such monumental decadence that I believe if people find out about it they will demand an end to it.

Women will not simply be mainstreamed into the polluted stream. Women are changing the stream, making it clean and green and safe for all -- every gender, race, creed, sexual orientation, age, and ability.
