I was raised by a woman and I'm the middle child of two sisters who are young Black women.

Playing Frida was hard and wonderful. I found such a force in her, bigger than me. I tried to make it just a woman who had to do what she did. A woman who lived, ate, and laughed. I tried to avoid the 'icon' of Frida Khalo.

Most of the time, you can beat a woman in an argument.

We were using Brooke as an actress; she was playing different roles: a liberated woman, a teenager, a vamp.

A woman would never make a nuclear bomb. They would never make a weapon that kills - no, no. They'd make a weapon that makes you feel bad for a while.

No, I'm not a woman who overshares.

I don't think the government should be involved in a woman's right to choose what is happening to her body.

A man doesn't know what it's like to be a woman; it's that simple.

I am all for trying out various kinds of hair styles. I have even worn a wig earlier in a film where I essayed the part of a woman.

The thematic core of 'X-Men' is tolerance. It's that for those of us who are different in any way - in a big way, whether it's you're a minority, you're a woman, you're a Muslim, you are suppressed or marginalized - it can go the whole spectrum - but even if you are shy or you feel like an outsider - and X-Men are outsiders.

A woman will be elected President before Wade Boggs is called out on strikes. I guarantee that.

I have healed myself through sharing my birth story as well as others' stories in my film 'No Woman, No Cry,' and in various writings and talks about maternal health.

Sometimes a woman's looks or sensuality are too readily wrapped up in their power.

Technology is a tough realm to navigate as a younger woman who is not married. It can be hard to cultivate professional relationships because you have to be conscious of how to engage potential investors.

I wasn't a huge fan of superhero movies before I watched 'Wonder Woman.' That was a really cool film - I really like all the stunts.

They allow us to disrespect our Black woman. A lot of these things would be considered criminal if it were to be carried out in the streets. That's like when they tell you after you buy your VHS and you rent movies they tell you not to copy the movies.

I wanted to explore expectations we have of people - what a woman should be, what a man should be. And if they don't meet our own interpretation of who they should be because of their gender, their background, their ethnic group, we then come to conclusions about them that are not accurate.

In the nineties, it was common to see people who expressed themselves through one designer - the Jil Sander woman, the Martin Margiela woman. You saw her on the street, and you knew who she was.

Like, I just feel like the way a man speaks to a woman - the way that people speak to each other - it's a respect thing.

Absolutely, yes, I'm proud of every woman, of every American, that makes her dreams come true.
