I can so relate to the lost hours of my life on a somewhat pointless Internet discussion. I have done it so many times now that I should have T-shirts printed up: Would you like to get a time wasting discussion? I’m your woman.

On anger: Anger is just energy — what people are afraid is the negative consequences of it’s undisciplined expression. Consequently, the emotion itself gets a bad rap.

And it’s impossible to have justice without anger. It might not even be possible to have real change without it. Mellow happiness, for better or worse, does not move mountains or create social change.
