“My original goal in the '90s, after I found feminism and I was the first generation in my family to go to college, was to spread this information that feminism was still very much alive, and that you can't believe the media telling you that it doesn't need to exist and that it doesn't exist.” NeedsFirstsBelieveStillsFoundGoalAliveGenerationsFeminismMediaInformationCollegeMy FamilyOriginalsSpread Author:Kathleen Hanna
“I was always drawn to performing, but I never thought I could. I have no idea what I wanted to do outside of the old cowboy-or-fireman. When I was in college, I got serious about acting. I started examining history and then everything related to the theater. History, art, all the other studies, if I could link them into the theater, then it became alive for me. It just opened up my eyes.” IfsArtIdeasEyeWantedActingStudyAliveCollegeSeriousTheaterNo IdeaPerformingRelatedIf I CouldLinksCowboyExaminingFireman Author:Billy Crystal

“I've just directed a film called The Great Debaters, which is inspired by a true story about a young college debating team in the thirties and two of those people are still alive and we put them on tape on the film and I'm sure that will be added to the DVD, and to get the opportunity to do that is very cool.” PeopleStillsTwoStoriesFilmYoungOpportunityAliveTeamCollegeInspiredTapeTrue StoryDvdsVery Cool Author:Denzel Washington
“I'm 64, but I act like I'm still 12. I go to schools. At colleges, they come out in droves, they almost scare me. I think it's just to see if I'm still alive. After I work them out - and it's not easy - I sit them down and we have a serious talk. Are they eating? Working on their body? I can say things parents won't say. No matter where I go, I talk to each one individually after I teach. They tell me things like, 'I'm starving, guys like girls thinner.' I give them concrete advice about self-image and self-worth.” IfsThinkingGivingStillsI CanSelfMatterBodySchoolGuyGirlEasyParentTeachAliveAdviceCollegeSeriousEatingDown AndSelf WorthScareConcreteStarving Author:Richard Simmons
