Women know the financial, social and physical costs of not having access to basic health care.

It's long past time we started focusing on the solutions that actually keep women healthy, instead of using basic aspects of women's health as a tool of cultural, moral, and political control.

My mom just didn't put a very high premium on me being like really famous or really wealthy or anything.

It's not common for a woman on television, especially if she's the mom of the family, to be funny. She's usually a straight man or foil.

My mom and I used to listen to records, read, and take train rides across the country in the summer. It was a very chill life. She didn't expose me to anything that was ahead of my development, but she expected me to adjust to her world - she did not expect to adjust to mine.

I am not a morning person. I like to sleep in.

It's long been accepted as fact that the availability of family planning services saves lives. Where women have access to these services, children and families are healthier, and society at large benefits.
