Quote:
"I was thinking about my grandmother and the difference between what her generation was born into and the generation I was born into. When it comes to women's rights, minority rights and the LGBTQ community, I realized my grandmother could not have had the same life I have—not that mine is all that exciting. It just came to me one day: what if this woman had been in love with another woman?"
-- Marianne Farley
