There has to be a balance between power and vulnerability. That's something I feel I have in my own life, something I struggle with and - on a good day - like about myself.

I actually think it's harder to play vulnerability, because you're having to delve deeper into portions of your own psyche, what it is that makes you human.

Vulnerability is the birthplace of connection and the path to the feeling of worthiness. If it doesn't feel vulnerable, the sharing is probably not constructive.

I'm fascinated by male vulnerability.

The difficult thing is that vulnerability is the first thing I look for in you and the last thing I'm willing to show you. In you, it's courage and daring. In me, it's weakness.

I think one's relationship with one's vulnerability is a very delicate and precious relationship. Most people try to hide, disguise that vulnerability, and in doing that, you, I think, diminish a great source of power.

My one area of vulnerability was I didn't know how to have a healthy relationship with a man.

The more refined and subtle our minds, the more vulnerable they are.

People only see permissiveness in the sense of having more.

I shall argue that strong men, conversely, know when to compromise and that all principles can be compromised to serve a greater principle.
