I have to struggle to change peoples perceptions of me. I grew very frustrated with the perception that Im this shy, retiring, inhibited aristocratic creature when Im absolutely not like that at all. I think Im much more outgoing and exuberant than my image. – Helena Bonham Carter
To live anywhere in the world today and be against equality because of race or color is like living in Alaska and being against snow. – William Faulkner
