I was raised in a very activist household so that I grew up surrounded by people who were activists.

Unfortunately, I don't think I can call myself an activist because I don't really do enough of anything.

I don't necessarily see myself as an activist, running down the street and knocking at every door.

I don't have the activist temperament. I like listening to divergent points of view and hearing people out. I like getting along. I even like being liked, although activists of any stripe should get rid of that handicap at the outset.

I and you and everyone else has to be a political activist.

I'm not an activist per se, but I have strong feelings about things. People can jump on celebrities for being ill-informed or naive, but I've got a right to say what I believe.

I've been an activist since my late teens. I take this very seriously and try to use the gift that's been given to me - access to the media - as positively as I can.

As a person, I'm pretty much the same except that I've come to terms with who my real friends and supporters are. I don't get particularly friendly with new people at first go.
