Carla H. Krueger
“You are a more powerful person than you might have ever imagined.” Maxwell D. Kalist.”
Carla H Krueger, From the Horse’s Mouth

Erica Jong
“if sex and creativity are often seen by dictators as subversive activities, it’s because they lead to the knowledge that you own your own body - and with it your own voice - and that’s the most revolutionary insight of all”
Erica Jong
