Suzanne Vega

"You have to defend your honor. And your family."

"I think people are sexy when they have a sense of humor, when they are smart, when they have some sense of style, when they are kind, when they express their own opinions, when they are creative, when they have character."

"In the end, my pursuit of the elusive New York State driver's license became about much more than a divorced woman's learning to drive for the first time."

"If you have to fight a crowd of boys, it's best to go for the biggest one. That way you won't have to fight them all. The others will see that you mean business and you will win their respect."
