There is no doubt that a woman’s economic empowerment is very much interconnected to her health and the well being of her children. – Helene D. Gayle
For the most part, I do a lot of my own stunts. On ‘The Final Destination,’ they kept pulling my stunt woman in, and I’d shoo her away. I’m a black belt in tae kwon do, so I was adamant about doing stuff myself. – Haley Webb

There is no employing class, no working class, no farming class. You may pigeonhole a man or woman as a farmer or a worker or a professional man or an employer or even a banker.

I still get called ‘a stick of dynamite’ or ‘pint-sized dynamo,’ stuff like that.
