The worst thing you could do to anybody is to humiliate them,
I thought about sitting behind the gate and picking roses,
Wow, this could be used for something bigger than a concert. You can use this to transform the way people see themselves,
Every woman who has ever walked into a room knowing she belongs there; every woman who has demanded equal pay, equal respect, ownership of her own body, and the right to make her own choices; every girl who has grown up assuming that her dreams are hers to pursue — whether she knows Gloria Steinem’s name or not — is living, in some measure, inside the progress Gloria helped create,
I thought, I grew up in L.A., you see celebrities all the time,
This girl from the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee dreamed a life and then lived a life bigger than she could have ever imagined, giving so generously to others in ways we saw and ways we didn’t. No one like her. She brought the light, and we are all better because she was here. God bless you, Dolly — you earned your wings.”
