It’s great to want to be part of something, but it’s a different thing completely to believe wholly in some type of movement, and to give everything for that something.

Female artists are the perfect example of a creator: They know how to make life and art with their bodies. Life comes from their bodies, so on a very basic level, they have more to write about.
