Quotes:
"I was a feminist just by nature, before I knew what a feminist was I was a feminist."
"Every gay reader understands the secret self that is full and wonderful and has longing and tenderness and a desire for connection to other people. I think that arguments against gay marriage are just ridiculous! Who cares? People want to get married for the same reason I wanted to get married. They want to do it in front of their friends and family"
"The first thing you hear when you travel is people asking you, ‘has America lost its mind?’” Carter said. “I understand that people want change, but change just for change sake isn’t a good thing. You don’t hire the snake oil salesman to run your company."
"Why people begrudge them any money they can make [I don’t know],” said Carter. “If they’re not in public office – so what! Go after the big golden parachutes that corporations get. All the rest of it is just nonsense."
"The women who are in Congress are the ones that float my boat."
