Jeannette Rankin

I want to stand by my country, but I cannot vote for war.

You can no more win a war than you can win an earthquake.

Men and women are like right and left hands; it doesn't make sense not to use both.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

I don't like to get in front of people.

I like villains because there's something so attractive about a committed person - they have a plan, an ideology, no matter how twisted. They're motivated.
