“Intelligence is attractive, but so is life experience. You can't amass it just by reading a ton of books. But you can live a lot of life in a short amount of time. Travel. Talk to everyone. Collect adventures, and use them to understand the world. That's how you learn to treat people well. And that's sexy.”
“People seem to think that you should be willing to speak to them whether they're jerks or not.”
“One forgives to the degree that one loves.”
“I'm not a single mom with two jobs, trying to get by, every day. I have much more support than most women, around this world, and I have the financial means to have a home and help with care and food.”

“Science may be weird and incomprehensible--more weird and less comprehensible than any theology--but science works. It gets results.
