Quote

I'm passionate about the issues that I care about, and I'm a really good listener.

I'm a person who's always been politically active and passionate about people's rights.

I'm very passionate, and I care about the people that are around me.

I'm not an activist; I don't look for controversy. I'm not a political person, but I'm a person with compassion. I care passionately about equal rights. I care about human rights. I care about animal rights.

I have a big passion about civil rights for everyone - whoever is being downtrodden at the moment, it doesn't matter: racial discrimination or sexual orientation or gender. Whatever it is, I'm there. I think I was a born civil rights activist. I can't stand the smashing of a community. It's not fair and it's not right.

We mistake politics for legislative debate. You can be passionate without being personal.

I get to advocate issues and ideas that I believe in.

I'm not an advocacy journalist - that's not what I do. My role in journalism is to be able to engage the most interesting people with the best ideas.

You can be passionate about anything.

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