• Entiendo que a menos que se tenga un gobierno de leyes, en lugar de un gobierno de personas, no se puede proteger la disidencia. Y entiendo, como mujer que probablemente habría sido quemada en el mercado por brujería hace sólo unos 200 años, que necesito la Primera Enmienda más que nadie. Y que incluso si me repugna la pornografía infantil o las producciones de Bob Guccione, que tengo que proteger esas cosas, porque esencialmente está en mi propio interés hacerlo.

• In the States, you have the First Amendment. People feel the freedom to speak and the right to be heard. And they kind of push the message: "It's a free country." Everybody has the right to say whatever they want to say. But in the Middle East, culture is your guide. You have to ask, is it culturally okay to say something like that? Is it culturally okay, for example, to show a woman giving birth? As Arabs watching such a scene in an American film it's okay, but when it comes to the Arabic context, we're like, "How dare you?" So it's how you present it.
