We must relinquish our passive observation of the world outside; we can open the door to the world we want. In understanding ourselves, we come to understand the world.

With myself, I'm very in touch with my masculine side. And I'm 50 percent feminine and 50 percent masculine, same as I think a lot of us are. And I think that is important to note. And also I think that if men went down and women rose to power, that wouldn't work either. We have to have a fine balance.
Shailene Woodley
