Certain things happened in the early church. Women who had never had any freedom suddenly have the ability to stand up and speak and be treated as equals within the life of the church.

With both kids I started working out again at 16 days postpartum but I treated myself with kindness doing mild workouts because my fitness level was lower.

I began to fear that Mos Def was being treated as a product not a person so I've been going by Yasiin since '99. At first it was just for friends and family but now I'm declaring it openly.

I hear the way people talk about the children of famous people. They're not treated very well. The presumptions are usually quite awful. So I tried to establish myself with a couple of movies. After 'Juno' I thought: 'I think I've defined myself enough as my own director that I'd love to work with my father.'

You don't have a family doctor anymore like you did when you were a kid who treated you throughout your life.

The best way is to say that as a Christian for me the essence of Christian faith is that you treat others as if you wish to be treated.

It strikes me as odd that the free exercise of religious faith is sometimes treated as a problem something America is stuck with instead of blessed with.

African Americans make up about 13 percent of the U.S. population but comprise 32 percent of patients treated for kidney failure giving them a kidney failure rate that is 4.2 times greater than that of white Americans.

One's only rival is one's own potentialities. One's only failure is failing to live up to one's own possibilities. In this sense every man can be a king and must therefore be treated like a king.

I think women don't grow up with the harsh world of criticism that men grow up with we are more sensitively treated and when you first experience the world of film-making you have to develop a very tough skin.
