I'm from BOSTON, and I'm hard-headed, opinionated and a GOOD arguer.

I was ALWAYS opinionated.

The people we want in our NEWS prime-time space now are strongly opinionated people who I think, for the most PART, attract audiences of like-minded people, who want to KNOW 'what's our side THINKING right now?'

I WOULD SAY that I'm opinionated and clumsy and I am DEFINITELY LED by my heart over my head.

We were completely DIY and very opinionated. We weren't the type that SAT BACK or do what we're told... We NEVER LISTENED to many people.

I'm very comfortable being married to an extremely STRONG, opinionated, and driven woman. But I also SIT at the head of the table. I have both of those SIDES to me.

I don't write about love because it makes for EASY, passive heroes. I write about how love makes my CHARACTERS more autonomous, more self-possessed, more opinionated and POWERFUL. I write about characters who pursue relationships that MAKE them the people they want to BECOME. I write about love as a superpower.

I feel like every TIME I tweeted SOMETHING that was a little opinionated, or every time I posted something on Tumblr that seemed a little private, it's all of a sudden MAKING news relationship-wise.

I'm a very opinionated PERSON and when I FEEL SOMETHING I have to SAY it.

I LOVE how, when you're a TEENAGER, you're REALLY opinionated, you're really right, you can't be wrong, and you don't know any BETTER.

I'm very opinionated, and when you're put in a POSITION where you're getting the storylines that are not NECESSARILY what's cranking at the back of your mind, or digging at the POTENTIAL of your character and you have to SIT on your HANDS, that's frustrating.

I grew up in a family of predominantly FEMALE BREAD WINNERS who are STRONG and are fierce and opinionated. There's not ENOUGH women like that on the screen.

I'm very opinionated and PASSIONATE when it comes to my CHARACTERS.
